I'm working on building a new system and I saw a note in the wiki that referenced the ability to change the frame rate on alarm. Anyone know how to do it? I'd love have zoneminder only pull around 1 frame a second from the cameras most of the time, but jump up to 10-15fps when an alarm is detected.
Also, is there any way to trigger alarms remotely, hopefully from an HTTP call. I've got a nice set of motion detectors running on a HEAVILY integrated Insteon system in my house managed by a Universal Devices ISY-994i and an EventGhost server. To the point where it knows who's home, uses motion detection, door sensors and switch presses to "predict" where someone might be going, etc.... and I'd love to use this for zoneminder something like this:
1) Use "proximity" detection. My ISY knows when one of us is home by using GPS notifications and arp requests on our wifi network, so when one of us is home, I'd like to NOT record anything. (No need to by spying on ourselves) Then, when we both leave the house and ISY marks the place as "VACANT" have it tell zoneminder to start recording again and processing motion alarms.
2) There are 4+ motion detectors in the apartment already, to auto turn on and off lights when you're in the room, as well as door sensors to know when someone has entered and exited... right now I have EventGhost running a python script that when we're not home, if someone opens the front door... automatically point the camera to a preset that sees the door and capture 50 images. Should the next thing that happens be a light switch use, other motion detect trip, etc... the scripts repoint the camera, basically in the direction the person is moving. I'd love to have EventGhost tell zoneminder to start recording also, either for a period of time, or until the lights are turned off or the door opens again.
Does anyone have anything like this running now?
