Hello,

Any experience suggestion or best practice?

Thanks, Simon

Hi to all, I'm using my old MacMINI5.1 with a Debian to record my 6 IPCAMS (4x 720 + 2x 1080). It's extreemly under load, and I think it's normal, having a Intel Core2 Duo P8600 @ 2.40GHz processor and a 2.5HDD not SSD, 4G ram. I would like to upgrade the hardware, but having a consideration about ...

Hello bbarnett again! Found the issue, maybe. I've replaced: SQL=" REPLACE INTO Monitor_Status (MonitorId, Status, CaptureFPS, CaptureBandwidth) VALUES ('$MONITOR_ID','$STATUS', '$FPS', ${LAST_BW:-0})" with SQL="UPDATE Monitor_Status SET Status='$STATUS', CaptureFPS='$FPS', CaptureBandwidth=${LAST ...

Thank you anyway bbarnett for your patches which I appreciate very. Due the issue is "only" che console not correctly updated, I'll enable the SQL logging into MySQL to check what ZM is doing. I would like to maintain your patches which i like
If I'll hve news, I'll post them here.

Goood morning bbarnett, You mean download latest gzip from github (I've used this https://gist.github.com/mwvent/f4d305996756336ff85d6f5ea1fb4c76#file-readme-txt) or yours? Yours are only single patches, right? Or do you have a single download file as well? Ok for the linked monitor function, but ...

Hello, Here the code after your patches (hope I've applied them correctly) and the SQL correction previously mentioned: #!/bin/bash # Original script posted here https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=27537 by russell_i_brown # Install to /opt/zmrecord.sh # Grab a video stream from an IP ...

Uh, far away from me. BTW Meanwhile I've noticed that my test cam has not audio, but looking to the vlc stream it seems to have it, so I've added it and now it works, at least in recording. BTW the events are correctly shown in the event view, but they are not shown in the console view. The console ...

Hello! I'm trying to use this script on a zoneminder 1.35.21 setup. I've applied the patched from @bbarnett as well the correction mentioned by @ernball. BTW I'm getting: TS: FPS: BW: FRAME: ERROR 1366 (22007) at line 1: Incorrect decimal value: '' for column `zm`.`Monitor_Status`.`CaptureFPS` at ...

Hello, where to look which FPS is registering ZM?
About the cams, they are:
2x 1080p direct stream analysis (no low-res stream, it hangs on two streams simultaniously - VstarCAM C16S)
2x 1080p for high stream, but with low res and linked monitor for MoDect.
Thanks, Simon

Hello, I've seen I cannot play with FPS settings on the cams. It's possible to do that in ZM side? Now having the cams with audio disabled (two) and enabled the others (four) the load was 85%. Now, after a service restart, down to 50% Here history: - added only 2 cams (tot 2) - added 2 cams more ...

Hello, I was thinking the issue is on two cameras which are handling only one stream per time and sometimes it's not reachable. But I have two cams with audio too, so I'll try to shutdown those cams as well and let you know. The idea to register in chunks the cams always sounds good BTW, so the ...

Thanks @dougmccrary, I'm correcting those values right now. But should this not only affect memory usage What about the approach to record all on main-stream in pieces and let trigger the motion on the low-res view as posted here? https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=27537 Does it make ...

Thanks @iconnor! Meanwhile, @dougmccrary, which buffer should I change? Actually I have: Image Buffer Size (frames) 15 Warmup Frames 20 Pre Event Image Count 10 Post Event Image Count 10 Stream Replay Image Buffer 0 Alarm Frame Count 3 If I could export all settings to a fast analysis I would do it ...

Uh all server with SSH. But pointing me to the Monitor Table is a good starting point. I'll look into it to check if there is an "ENABLE" fiels. I've 3 different cams and 2 of them with linked monitors so I would like to prevent in deleting all
I'll let you know!
Thanks, Simon
