SyRenity wrote:2) During the installation, the make could not create the perl scripts part. The Automake complained that the versions differs (the one that came with ZM was 1.4.8, and I had automake 1.4.9). It requested to re-run the aclocal command, which rebuilt the config file. The make could then finish sucessefully.

SyRenity wrote:3) The resulting binaries are very large, easily reaching ~9 MB. The previous version binaries were around ~800k (even ~200k with the debug info omitted ). It seems as the libraries are somehow got linked statically, otherwise, how such large size is possible?

Also odd. Mine look to have always been a few Mb each. It occurs to me that perhaps this is an effect of how you are linking to the ffmpeg libraries as thay are about 10Mb or more. Perhaps you just don't have .so versions?

Line: 13
Char: 2
Error: Invalid Argument
Code: 0
URL: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/zm/index.php?view=video&eid=4

Also, when clicking on "Download", the movie is loaded in the new window, and a download dialog appears for the "index" file.

This screen works fine in Firefox, thought.

Thanks, I'll check that in IE.

I think it should have a '**' on it. This just means that it is the default for the XHTML interface. It works for me here. I've only tried it from a phone though and it's very fussy about image sizes and only seems to work when you have exact multiples of cif, acif sizes etc.

SyRenity wrote:6) The time line feature is simply rocks! Can't wait when it will reach IE, as it currently shows no images at all, when pointing the spikes.

Usually "mysql zm -uroot -p" does this, but zmupdate doesn't seem to be happy to pass plain "-p" as an argument for mysql. I'll have a go at it this evening.

/usr/bin/zmupdate.pl -version=1.21.3 --user=root --pass={password}
