so i've been committing changes now every time i want to build. i think that's been reliable. the build process is a bit slow, but not a big issue. i have a pretty stable setup using dlandon's docker image and tried to migrate that out of the docker, but ran into some issues. maybe i just need to ...

so i think things are mostly working. i'm building the entire package to just work on a single piece -- zma. but i can live with that for now. but i'm really confused by how it's doing the build. it's copying the source directory to the build dir while it's processing. and when i compare the src ...

oh cool. i guess the various ini's are accessible still so i can copy them around as needed. i may still just stick with the docker image. i'm torn still. it's pretty convenient and it works great. my first install of zm was just normal install and i couldn't get event notifications to work, but ...

i've been running under docker for a couple weeks. now i'm looking at moving to a direct install. i'd like to retain as much as possible from my docker zm settings (and zmes settings). any pointers? is there a way to "commit" a docker container in some way?

will do. part of the reason to build from source it to explore some changes to the code. when building dev packages should i do anything particular with the version file (i'm assuming that's where it's getting the version info)? or just let it use build numbers to differentiate itself? or is it all ...

awesome. it seems to have completed and now i've got a .deb file i can install. right now i'm running zm from inside of dlandon's docker image. i'm fine with installing directly to my system, but before i do that, is it preferred to run zm from a docker or directly installed? i am not very docker ...

thanks. i figured it might be the case that focal was not ready yet (at least using this system).

i'll admit to be being a bit vague about how this all gets put together... it says it's pulling packpack/packpack:ubuntu-focal that is the docker image, yeah? the .travis.yml file has the line: - SMPFLAGS=-j4 OS=ubuntu DIST=focal DOCKER_REPO=iconzm/packpack when searching for my error, it seemed the ...

i'm trying to get zm compiling, but haven't had much luck. i've got some thoughts i'd like to try out.

trying to build a 1.35 or even 1.34 using the packpack docker image as described in the docs. doesn't get very far. mk-build-deps: Unable to install zoneminder-build-deps at /usr/bin/mk-build-deps line 457. mk-build-deps: Unable to install all build-dep packages make: *** [/pack//deb.mk:121: /build ...

so with the standard blend method... my ref image value is 112. my live image values are 120. blend percent 6.25% 112 * .9375 = 105 120 * .0625 = 7.5 105 + 7.5 = 112 --- no change to the ref image... i'd have to get up to 128 in order to increase the 112 by 1. so i could have a solid 125 blending ...

so my ref images don't have the odd plateauing anymore -- i turned off fast blend and cpu extensions. but i'm still having issues. but i still see a ton of areas in the deltas in the 15-20 range. this is a white wall in the shade. pixel values vary from about 158, 175, 180 to 162, 180, 185 in the ...

i've found the fifo diagnostic images for reference/delta images to be incredibly useful. it would be fantastic if those were linked from somewhere instead of being something you have to find in the docs and cut-and-paste to a web browser. a link from the live view would make sense -- plenty of ...

it would be nice if the zmes diagnostic images would link to outside of the docker image like the other parts of the event notification system do. so when you enable the temporary image writing option, the temp images would go something like the /mnt/Zoneminder/hook/images directory rather than ...

yeah, looking at the fastblend code, basically depending on the blend percentage, you are basically throwing out your lowest significant bits. at 6%, it's tossing out the lowest 4 bits of your the image. this is why i'm not getting anything higher than 240 in the image. the pools of values of 15 are ...
