Been running Zoneminder on Fedora 13 for about a year now. Works perfectly!

Recently made a few changes along with an update of fedora 13 and suddenly my load is consistently over 1. I know 1 isn't bad but I am noticing that all the events that get recorded seem to be really slow during play back. Almost like it cant fit all the frames in quick enough.

Live view seems to be showing the information correctly but seems a little choppy.

I was running Fedora 13. The server being just home security system, I took it down and upgraded to Fedora 14. Hoping a fresh install and newer software might clean it up?

I'm just wondering if anyone else out there has been having the same problem? Or similar? Maybe its one Fedora module that got upgraded or something.

If anyone's interested I can post more details.

You can single left system monitor and check which process is dragging you down.

Single Left system out?

I've tried shutting different sections off like motion detection. Or specific monitors. It cuts off about 1/4 of the load. Which would make sence with 4 monitors.

Its a Core 2 Due 2.33 processor.. Didn't focus on that with the message because it was working in the machine before with a hitch.

Im running Fedora 64 Bit also, It was 64 bit before also.

Okey, I've narrowed it down. Its recording at full speed which is good. Its the play back. I am able to export the video and play it locally at full speed and looks perfect.

Still don't know what causing it, But its a step closer.

I'm sorry, single left click 'system monitor' on your desk top to find the offending process. Could indicate ZM, ffmepg, or any others that were upgraded and not playing fair with ZM.
