Video Generation Failed

Post by stevewrightnz1 »

Hi guy's
Anyone know how to stop the process that is generating this error?

Video generation '/usr/bin/zmvideo.pl -e 52427 -r 1 -s 0 -f mp4' failed with status: 9

It seems to survive a reboot/restart

Is it this? viewtopic.php?p=135951

Do you have a filter that is setup to 'create video for all matches'?
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
