This would be an interesting solution to high CPU load with multiple cameras on a single server. A few things you will lose with this solution is the frames leading up to the motion, which will be lost. Also, the chip doesn't seem to allow masking. One thing that the chip manufacturers mentioned ...

yeah, set short_open_tag = On in /etc/php.ini file or wherever your php configuration file resides.

This was already discussed on the very first post of the "basic setup" thread, the thread you posted in.

CPU sits at 60% with small image and 5 FPS

Hi, I know this topic has probably been beaten to death, but I my CPU usage is abnormally higher than what most users on this forum are reporting. Below is the result of my top and as you can see, zma takes up a good deal of CPU. Most people on this forum reports zma going up when there's an event ...

OK, FYI

using --wth-mysql=/usr instead of /usr/lib/mysql fixed it. I don't know how since the libs are all under /usr/lib/mysql, but it did fix it.

I have a similar card and was wondering what insmod options did you have to set to get the cards to work? Using bttv, modprobe on RedHat hangs as it tries to detect a tuner and audio. I have to control-C out of the modprobe. When I run xawtv, all I see is a bunch of static. If someone has ...

A quick peek inside libmysqlclient.a shows that mysql_init no longer exists and may have been replaced by my_init. Does that mean I have to find an older version of mysql to compile zm? Or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Was there an answer as to how I go about fixing the error: checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... no configure: error: zm requires libmysqlclient.a I installed mysql-devel on Fedora Core 2 and I'm still getting this error. It looks like configure is checking for mysql_init and not finding it ...

Phil, thanks for the info. wow, i didn't know it was so involved to port the code to postgresql. i've dealt with postgres a lot and yes, when you're doing a comparison, it is case sensitive whereas mysql is case insensitive (unless dealing with binary fields). That's always been a problem with ...

Curious, I'm looking for a similar setup as the top poster. Ruler, what's the fps and resolution with your 16 cameras? I don't think I have that much RAM to throw at the box so was wondering if I might be able to get away with just 512MB and a 1.3GHz chip. I have an AMD Barton 2600+ with a gig of ...

PostgreSQL support

Hi, great product. I was just wondering if there will be support for PostgreSQL? I run all Postgres here and it would be nice to keep everything consistent. Just curious. Thanks.
