I couldn't reply on 1.36.8 thread, but thank you for the updates iconnor. 1.36.7 really cleared up a lot of my RAM/CPU issues and this .8 seems even better. It's nice to be able to get the new interface as well as the ability to have a large low res monitor to draw zones on. I owe you a few cups of ...

Asker, Just wanted to say thanks for everything (like everyone else has already said). I probably would've bit the bullet and bought Blue iris by now if it wasn't for both ZMES and ZMNinja. Thanks for your many contributions to the community and for enabling me to keep open source 8) Re ...

I ended up scrapping this whole thing, fwiw. I got the events to work the way that I liked and then had a power outage. It took down HA but I have ZM on a UPS so I was able to graciously shut down. When everything came back up MQTT wasn't working consistently, and I noticed that I was no longer ...

try this: Making progress. I can now make automations using ZM switches, including getting Frigate to trigger ZM recording. However, I have a host of new problems. 1. Zoneminder starts recording *on* detection, but I need to it record from a few seconds *before* the trigger point. Is there any way ...

value_template: > {% set data = namespace(entities=[]) %} {% for detected in value_json.detection %} {% set data.entities = data.entities + [detected.labels] %} {% endfor %} {{ data.entities | join(",") }} This is what I am going to try when I get home. Think it'll work? (I'm script kiddie-ing the ...

Doesn't that Jinja only give you the 0 index of the labels dict though? So if you have 2 or more labels it will only show the first one. Couldn't you use a for loop or something to iterate through the indexes of "labels" ? Good point. I mostly just use HA to throttle the events and I guess I ...

I had to move back to 1.34 due to issues, but this configuration worked on 1.36 for me as well: zoneminder: - host: !secret zm_host path: /zm/ path_zms: /zm/cgi-bin/nph-zms ssl: true verify_ssl: false username: !secret zm_username password: !secret zm_password camera: - platform: zoneminder That ...

JIC anyone else goes looking, label has indeed been changed to labels and has itself been turned into a list. Heres what I did to get a working MQTT Sensor for ZM events. You can add the image as well but I'm sending those via smtp and just using this for notifications for things like alarm panels ...

I already have a thread in the Home Assistant forum but I thought it might be worth asking around here as well. I am having trouble parsing the label from events. I can parse name with no issues, which at least gets me around the 255 character limit, but for some reason everything that I have found ...

I ended up completely nuking my setup and went back to 1.34 (stupid me auto deleting every backup from then). Back to being rock solid. Bonus: event server installed easily and flawlessly (after banging my head for weeks trying to update it). Ended up spending a few hours replacing what I have been ...

Giving up on this after 2 nearly full days working on it. Integration with Home Assistant does not seem to be in the best place right now. I appreciate all of your help and of course Connor's active development.

Sounds like the changes here, not sure if resolved yet as looks like a change to API consumer is required https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/issues/3239 That definitely seems to answer my second question, thank you very much! With the 255 character issue, Im looking into either trying to ...

Alright, so I went crazy with updating things and reconfiguring things. I broke it all and had to restore my config files and reinstall the event server. I am now back to working object detection and everything looks good on Zoneminders end. No longer getting the MQTT::Simple missing errors. In fact ...

Hello! Been trying to get notifications working on Home Assistant. In my log Im being told that Net::MQTT::Simple is missing, even though it says that it's installed and up to date. I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this piece tbh, and could use some direction. My apologies in advance if I'm missing ...

Thanks man. I had no idea my cameras were so memory hungry! Setting it to 0 immediately made my server slow to a crawl. You'd think 16 GB for 4 streams would be plenty but maybe this is due to the memory leak issues?
