I have a fresh install of ZM 1.24.1 and ffmpeg.
My events trigger ok however they never end. I have to click the 'Disable alarms' link to
end the event. Does this sound like a zm configuration issue or possibly my camera settings need to be tuned?

I tried deleting the zone and recreating once again as suggested in a previous 1.23 post.
This time it worked. My zone triggers an alarm and then ends. Unfortunately now my alarms end prematurely They range from 3-4 seconds and end even though there is activity.

Can I see the configuration settings from your Zone? I have the same issue but I can't seem to find a way to make the alarm stop (once it goes into an alarm state, it will stay there forever, even if there is no movement at all)

Wow now it works, i just deleted the Monitor from the list and started from scratch. I just configured it with the basic information it needs to be linked to ZM... It works like a charm now, amazing, perhaps I changed an important value in the Monitor configuration...

Cheers
