Video flickers when adding second camera

Post by tamray »

Had to reinstall zoneminder and forgot how I fixed a flickering video problem. Can't seem to find the post that had the solution. I know I had to change a setting in Options.

Picture is perfect when I use a single, local camera, but rolls or jumps with a black line when I add a 2nd local camera.


Anyone know what I need to change under Options?

Options::Config::V4L_MULTI_BUFFER?

After more than 15 years, no longer using ZM as surveillance system.
Now in the dark side, using a commercial system...
