Greetings,
I just did a fresh install on my Raspberry Pi 3b with Buster (10). I installed Zoneminder using the WIKI instructions which installed 1.34.6. I started to add RTSP network cameras when I ran into a problem. I cannot get more then 2 cameras to work. All additional cameras will not start recording, getting message "Monitor is not capturing. We will be unable to provide an image". I cloned the settings from working cameras where only the IP changed. If I stop another camera then one of the failed cameras will start to work. It appears it is limiting me to 2 cameras for some reason.
Thank You.

Set GPU_MEM. I think this works for RPI3 as well as RPI4. Most people use RPI4.
Or lower resolution / FPS on camera.

fastest way to test streams:
ffmpeg -i rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path ./output.mp4 (if terminal only)
ffplay rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path (gui)
find paths on ispydb or in zm hcl
