So, I have my Wyze Cam V2 camera setup with the RTSP firmware. I can see the RTSP stream using VLC just fine, so I know my URL is correct and the camera is running. However, nothing I do seems to let Zoneminder (1.33) actually connect to the camera. I've tried ffmpeg and libvlc, I've tried TCP and ...

Background: I am a newcomer to zoneminder. I set up zoneminder on a clean Debian install last October. Got things up and running on a single camera.

to
1.11.1.10/2.72.1.49.

Other than that, Zoneminder is running as set up from the zoneminder on debian quickstart guide.

I changed the value of PATH_SWAP from /tmp/zm to /dev/shm. This was the only path referencing /tmp.
This appears to have solved the problem.

Thanks!
