new detection methods...

Post by fernando »

first i have to say ... new is more easy to set detection filters...

wen i use filtered i get some weird analysed files..

<img src="http://cablemodem.fibertel.com.ar/campo ... nalyse.jpg" width="320" height="240">

this is normal? and idea is to see by default the captured frames and the link to see the analized ones.

Hi Fernando,

This looks like a debug image rather than a proper analyse image. When you say new 'detection filters' what/where exactly do you mean?

I get those "debug" images in place of the alarmed-overlay stills sometimes. There doesn't seem to be an obvious logic to it though. Sometimes they appear, sometimes I get the correct overlay image instead. It does seem to happen (I think) only when multiple zones are defined, though.

I will look into this. Are you running with diagnostic images enabled? If so you will probably be crippling your performance by the way. I would only use it briefly to investigate settings or what triggers thing etc.

Also what 'check method' are your zones set up to use?

Yes, I've found and fixed a bug. If you use a check method other than blobs then you won't get edge highlighting for that zone as there are no blobs so there are no obvious edges to highlight. However the code wasn't clearing out the images so it thought that there was an analysis image to write. The fix corrects this (or should when I've tested it) so that you won't get any analysis images written unless at least one of your zones has 'blobs' as a check method and is alarmed.

ZM_CREATE_ANALYSIS_IMAGES and ZM_RECORD_EVENT_STATS are checked, but ZM_RECORD_DIAG_IMAGES is not. I've got 7 zones defined. Two are Active and two are Inclusive, all using blobs. The remaining three are Inactive.

Hi Rick,

There is a bugette I've found which may be responsible for this. It will be in the next version or I can probably do a patch if you want one.

Now that jpeg streaming is working again I can live with a few broken analysis images for a while, thanks. I'll wait for the next revision.

With 1.19.2 I'm still occasionally seeing 'debug' images in place of analysed images, but so far I've not spotted a pattern.... It's most obvious on my grey-scale camera when parts of the image within an active zone get marked all-white, and all parts of the image not in any zone get left black. I'm using 'Blobs' for analysis.
