Alarms generated when streaming.

I'm running 1.21.3 using 3 monitors. 2 out of the 3 monitors go into alarm state whenever I click on the monitor name to get a live feed from the camera. Any idea why? Logfiles all look clean and detect a regular alarm.

i cant think why this would happen. Have you tried turning the diag and analysis images on to see what actually cretes the alarm to have a better clue?

No I haven't turned them on but I just noticed that when I am using the "LOW Bandwidth" setting all is OK. The only differences between the Low and the High Bandwidth settings are the following...
...............................................Low High
ZM_WEB_x_Refresh_cycle........ 5 / 3
ZM_WEB_x_Refresh_Image.......3 / 2
ZM_WEB_x_Refresh_Status.......8 / 5
ZM_WEB_x_Refresh_Events.....60 / 35
ZM_WEB_x_Default_Scale.......75 / 100

The streaming should have no effect whatsoever on the daemons that generate alarms. In fact they don't even know about each other. The only connection, as James has suggested, would be if streaming caused something else to occur on your box which then affected the pictures coming in but I can't think what.
