It isn't isolated to these cameras either.

Are you still experiencing this issue?

I'm experiencing this issue as well and I made some changes to what the camera sends to ZoneMinder in order to clean this up a bit. It seems to work but I would like to see if you can make the same changes and confirm that my changes really did the trick.

For your trigger message, can you:

• set the score to zero (comments in the Perl script states that this should be zero when action is off)

• remove the cause (ignored when action is off)

• remove the text (ignored when action is off)

Your trigger message should look like this: 14|off|0|||showtext

I'm wondering if the Perl script is getting tripped up if the score is non-zero and/or the cause and text are set whenever the action is off.

Thanks
