I also noticed that the tag it read was 'LOREX'. lol It caught the camera's title stamp because it was about where the plate would be in a different camera shot of the truck. lol This is the other angle: https://hippiepete.org/zoneminder/LOREX.plate.jpg Removed that and upped past_det_max_diff_area ...

Thanks again, Asker! I already have it set to 'yes' and still get repeat alerts. I also found:

52 past_det_max_diff_area=5%

I'll try messing with that value...

Hey Y'all, I'm on kubuntu 20.04 with zoneminder 1.34.16 and have zmeventnotification working. It's pretty amazing! My question is, is there a way to exclude my vehicle, or known vehicles? Many times, I'll get alerts triggered due to birds or bugs flying in front of the camera. Zmeventnotification ...

Asker, thank you again!! I was about to ask the same question and you answered it here. I'm also absolutely LOVING ES!

Gotcha, that makes sense. Much appreciated!! This is really cool.

WOOHOO!!! Thanks so much asker! It was a combo of all you said, plus a few things I needed to comment out from objectconfig.ini that I'm not usinmg yet.

Thanks again, asker! I'm working on the upgrade and will fix up secrets.ini, commenting out those lines. I do have the 'real' credentials in my file, but I was using the database credentials. I don't have authentication set up for zm, but it sounds like I need to for this to work, so I'll set that ...

That makes sense, thanks! I have ZM_PORTAL set like this now: ZM_PORTAL=https://margaritaville.lucky.org/zm I also tried setting it the same as ZMES_PICTURE_URL, but I get the same error. How should that be set? Here's my redacted secrets.ini: # cat secrets.ini # your secrets file [secrets] # fid ...

Greetings! I'm working on setting up zmeventnotification with hooks and am struggling with a download url error. The event server seems to be working ok, but I can't get a hook to work due to a download error. I am using SSL, but I do not have authentication set up for the zoneminder portal as it's ...
