Newb Hello and Help - Source Orange, Corrupt JPEG & Shared

[KarlD]

Hi

New to ZM and loving it so far.

Running ZM on a HP Microserver but having some weird issues.

Was running a Tenvis outdoor IP camera without issue but now I've popped a Xenta "branded" IP camera on its all gone a bit Pete Tong.

Even with the monitor set to MoDect and enables the Source shows orange and wont trigger any events. I can see the camera without issue and all the config looks fine.

In the syslog I have the following errors

Thanks for that however it didn't seem to resolve my issue and I cant pick the MP4 stream or telnet that port either.

I tested it with my Tenvis IP cam thats waiting to be mounted outside and the monitoring goes straight to green without issue. I made all the other changes to the memory etc.. too.

Any other ideas?

The camera with the issue is a Xenta IP-5IR-58D 5 IR LED Wireless Indoor IP camera - only a cheap thing from an well known UK e-tailer

I've been searching for a resolution and it seems that I'm not the only one with the issue, here is a more recent log

just increased all the buffers to 25 and it seems to have sorted the issue - still getting lots of Corrupt JPEG data errors in the log.

The main issue is sorted though - its not sitting on MODECT and alarming away nicely.

Corrupt JPEG data error is a known camera firmware issue. Not really a problem other than it fills up the logs. If you want to get rid of the message, you can either recompile zoneminder (what I did) or recompile libjpeg (what others have done).

Searching the forums, you will find several threads that discuss the details of these workarounds.

I also got the Corrupt JPEG error on my Foscam cameras running on ZM 1.25. However I fixed it in what I think is perhaps a fairly straightforward way ...

First the clue to the problem is in the log (top right on ZM console) which contains an error like ...

Code: Select all

2012-11-24 16:26:41.634319	zmc_m3	15636	WAR	Corrupt JPEG data: 1 extraneous bytes before marker 0xd9	zm_jpeg.cpp	63

The key part of this error message is at the end where it shows that the problem is being generated by zm_jpeg.cpp on line 63.

If you open the zm_jpeg.cpp file at /usr/src/zm/src then it contains the following on lines 62 and 63 ...

Code: Select all

			(zmerr->pub.format_message)( cinfo, buffer ); 
			Warning( "%s", buffer );

These are the lines that actually generate the Corrupt JPEG warning message. If you comment them out as follows ...

Code: Select all

/*			(zmerr->pub.format_message)( cinfo, buffer ); */
/*			Warning( "%s", buffer ); */

... then save the file and re-compile / install ZoneMinder then the problem goes away. The good thing is that *only* the Corrupt JPEG messages are stopped. All the other warning and info messages are still generated.

To reinstall ZoneMinder (this is from memory, so caveat emptor) ...

Go to the source directory ...

Code: Select all

cd /usr/src/zm/src

... become root ...

Code: Select all

sudo su [for ubuntu]

... (re)install ZoneMinder

Code: Select all

make install

... then reboot

Ideally I think the logging in Zoneminder 1.25, which is generally great as all the entries are in the MySQL database, should have an option to completely suppress JPEG errors through "Options" settings.

This is really upsetting..... I cannot find zm_jpeg.cpp anywhere on my installation.

The zm log reports "corrupt Jpeg" etc as coming from zm_jpeg.cpp.

I used "find", "locate", "nautilus" all report no file!!!!

Looking at my directory structure with nautilus I get /usr/src/ (no zm dir) ????

I'm sure I am doing something wrong, just spent 2 hours and am still spinning around...

Well, you didn't state how you installed zoneminder, but I'm going to assume you added it via Synaptic or the Ubuntu Software Center.

The error message you are receiving is referring to the zonemidner source code, which is not included in the Ubuntu deb package you likely installed. You have to download the source code separately.

Hi there

I installed ZoneMinder using the 64-bit version of the ZM 1.25 DVD for Ubuntu created by Elfking at http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewto ... =6&t=18782.

I guess that distro includes the source code which is why what I did worked for me. I didn't stop to think that other distributions might not include it. Sorry about that ...

I'm sorry I can't help with how to obtain the source since I haven't had to do it, although the ZoneMinder Documentation does include some instructions.

[rockets]

Thanks for the reply. I suddenly realized you were recompiling zm, and forgot I posted here. Maybe someday I'll get smart.
