Thanks. I updated the https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ffmpeg wiki. I found that the following Ffmpeg wiki link sort of worked for this scenario. Though it did have trouble after a minute or two. I'll have to test it further. https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Create%20a%20mosaic%20out%20of%20several%20input ...

Idk... I got it into a "usable" state, but it is still far from perfect. Analysis barely keeps up, but I'm exhausted from such a simple project for very unimpressive results. I understand this program can be very good and amazing, and is built by people with a passion... But I suppose it isn't for ...

This required an additional post for some reason.

I only briefly read through the post but I noticed you didn't post all monitor settings, so please post those. Here's an example of what I have that works. Notice that JPEG encoding is OFF (important for high res cameras), the settings at the webgui of the camera should be h264, with perhaps 10FPS ...

You should have nightly config database backups. And it's easy to restore/rebuild the database. You might've been able to do that, to save some time. See: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/MySQL

Check for javascript console errors. https://forums.zoneminder.com/search.php?st=0&sk=t&sd=d&sr=posts&keywords=javascript+console I have had the javascript files get broken on my machine somehow from an update. Sometimes you only need to refresh the cache, or disable extensions. You can try a ...

Do you have a filter that is setup to 'create video for all matches'?

I installed ZMES on Debian 12 a few months ago and did not have any issues. https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?p=135779#p135779 It is possible that compatibility will break in the future, but it has been working so far. ZMES uses YOLO to do image recognition. I.e. it will detect objects ...

If I have 10 cameras. Is it possible to add only a few cameras for a user to view? And is it possible to combine several cameras into a group? Should access be provided in groups? As I understand it, user rights to view specific cameras are saved in the database? Or is it all saved to a file? User ...

OK this might help. I just downloaded and installed ZM Ninja 1.7.007 from GitHub. Good news is this version does see video from my new ZM server (v1.36.33, Debian 12). Bad news is that it doesn't see video from my older ZM server (v1.36.32 on Debian 11), Seems that needs the old v1.6 ZM Ninja ...

Late response, but I'll respond for those who are using the phpbb search. Double check the apache configuration.

Xubuntu 24.04 is a LTS release. So what's the issue? You mentioned people having trouble with non-LTS releases but I'm not doing that... I figured Xubuntu was better than ubuntu for this - is that what you are recommending against? I wasn't clear enough. I swear in the back of my mind I've seen ...

My mistake, I think you are correct. In this case, I restored the DB without rebuilding it, and as a result, I had to start over (getting the sessions table missing error). Though there was some other error that was causing the web site to be blank after database restore. I suppose this second error ...
