Iconnor, please don't get mad but I just had to try :oops: update Events set Frames=106 WHERE id=70512; Now the event is working, also the prev and next button are working. So basically I changed the Frames value from 101 to 106 for the broken event and it works now. There are 106 captured jpegs on ...

Well you're analysis has given me some ideas where to look. The frames count is updated at the same time the endtime is updated and the event name changed. It is the final db query for that event. If zmc crashes, the frames count will not get updated. So we need to figure out why zmc is crashing ...

Yeah, it's a bit weird. The video seems to play alright on the console thumbnail screen but when clicked it fails. What's really weird for me is that the thumbnails for broken events do not work for me in the console. Maybe our errors are not exactly the same. With analysis turned of I get broken ...

I may have discovered something interesting due to some preliminary testing: Events sometimes fail for camera's with save jpegs set to: frames only Events sometimes fail for camera's with save jpegs set to: frames + analysis Events always fail for camera's with save jpegs set to: analysis only I ...

Yeah, it's a bit weird. The video seems to play alright on the console thumbnail screen but when clicked it fails. If I had to guess maybe a different set of options is passed to the video player when the video is opened from the thumbnail? I don't know enough about the detail to dig into that ...

Did you get to the bottom of this? I'm having the same issue

Unfortunately: no. I am still getting around 1 in 15 events that get "corrupted".

Not complaining or anything, but I was wondering what the update status for zoneminder in the rpmfusion repo is. The current version is still at 1.36.5 and it is not running well on some test machines for me.

Thank you both very much for your response. @dougmccrary : I have looked at the disk location for an event that is not starting in the eventstream on the event page. Files are present. My current configuration does not create an mp4 file but a bunch of jpg files. I have noticed that the event page ...

Sounds like you may have a storage problem. Can you find the events directly, or are they really missing? Thank you very much for responding. What do you mean with: "Can you find the events directly"? I can see the event in the events page. Every value seems legit. I can open the event but the page ...

So any idea how I should be finding the cause of this problem.. It's getting worse (more videos not showing up when trying to view the event). I think there is actually something wrong with the event itself because It's not that an event sometimes does not display and sometimes does. Either it ...

I have multiple instances of events not loading in the page. It is happening for al monitors but only sometimes. Once in every 20 events on estimate. Everything in the page shows up, even file size etc. and the motion bar at the bottom of the video. Only the video is missing and the page keeps on ...

When skipping through events using the previous and next buttons under the video itself I often and up at a page which states: Event was not found. I have not fully troubleshooted this issue but I would like to have the navigation buttons on the page (with "Event was not found") so that I can try to ...

Looks like epel just got updated with the new libaom. Problem should be solved now...

You are not the only one.. What flavour of linux are you using? So libaom is in epel repo it has not been updated for years. There is a new libaom in epel testing repo it was added on the 13th of this month. I do not know how often and under which protocol testing rpm's are moved to regular epel ...

Well it wasn't really straightforward figuring that out(at least not for me). But your suggestion seems to have helped me allot. Thank you. I added a file named 03-custom.conf to /etc/zm/conf.d/ and added the following: ZM_DB_HOST=localhost:/new/mysql/mysql.sock I think this is the proper way to do ...
