Don't poll cameras that are not enabled
Posted: Tue Oct 04, 2011 1:01 pm
I have a couple of wireless IP cameras I occasionally turn on to watch pet activity within the house. It can be pretty amusing sometimes.
When I have the cameras turned off, I un-check the "Enabled" check box under the appropriate monitor. However, Zoneminder 1.25.0 continues to check for the presence of these cameras and fills the log with errors:
As far as I know, I'm doing everything right here so I am logging this as a feature request.
When a camera is not enabled, Zoneminder should not poll the device.
