Can you view the stream in ffprobe / ffplay? If you like, you can post images of your settings. Maybe something will stand out. If you post images of the settings, and an ffprobe on the URL, that might be useful. I wrote a reference here: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Finding_Camera_Stream_Paths You ...

I didn't know about picture in picture. Here is a post on Mozilla's forums regarding the lack of compatibility with MJPEG streams (which I'm guessing ZM uses, since the cgi path for streams has JPEG): https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/picture-in-picture-pip-support-for-mjpeg-streams/idi-p/37432 ...

Yes it tries all disks. Does it first go to the first disk in the storage listing? If that's the case, then in order to setup a hot spare, you could delete the default storage, then setup an unused HDD as the first added storage area, followed by the storage areas you intend to use. So if any one ...

https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?p=135280 This is good as it doesn't lose any video footage, but the default storage area is also the MySQL and root drive, so it is best to delete the default storage area. What you want is to have an extra hdd available similar to RAID, which can be used ...

I had an issue on 1.36.33 where I was getting broken events where every once in a while, there would be dozens of low frame events, and the time would desync. I set the max image buffer size to 0 (unlimited) and the errors went away.

Well, I know the Monitor table references the Storage table only by Id, so it must be stored somewhere else. Try: mysqldump -u myuser --no-create-info --extended-insert=FALSE databasename | grep -i "<search string>" or mysqldump -u root --no-create-info --extended-insert=FALSE zm | grep -i "mnt_nas ...

It's a standard SQL command. Something like: sudo mysql -u root zm show tables; select * from Storage; (see what mount is the one you are looking for) delete from Storage where Id=<idthathasthemountyouwant>; select * from Storage; (review changes look correct) And restart ZM afterwards. Note that ...

In this case, just looking at recent posts in the forum is the right answer, not searching for a keyword. This comes right up:

I don't think your problem is related to the hw device. There have been some errors with the web interface and 1.36.35 that relate to a missing letter in the source files. Search the 1.36 forum for more details. But in case you want to do what you asked, the command would be: mysql -u root zm -e ...

After thinking about it a bit, I came to the following conclusions. 1) Create video for all matches, can mean different things to different people. In my case, I intended to create a single video that concatenated a number of events into one video, so that I could watch the single video from my ...

tl;dr Create video for all matches is legacy code, and won't make sense with passthrough. There are some checks for whether the video was already made that need to be removed. And then ideally the code would concatenate all the videos into one. Maybe the option should just be removed since it doesn ...

i know i can just go in the settings and tell it to use the new drive, but that would leave all its files on the old drive and i dont think the system would see them? I just ran into this recently, and if I am not mistaken, Zoneminder (the database) will keep track of one camera over different ...

- activate cameras only when triggered by motion - start recording on ssd when triggered by motion - take a snapshot when triggered - send me the snapshot somehow to mobile phone. - I also would like to live stream my cameras at any moment from remote. You should use a HDD, not an SSD. SSDs have ...

You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages. I think it's the same thing you ran into here: https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?p=135790#p135790 You have to edit the script though, you don't want to just install pyzm ...

That is good to know about Wireguard. I found this about the MTU: https://superuser.com/questions/1537638/wireguard-tunnel-slow-and-intermittent If you have a firewall on both sides that you can configure with iptables of nft, you can skip using a VPN altogether. Just whitelist the appropriate IP ...
