Dahua PTZ IP Camera having 5+ secs delay
Posted: Mon Aug 03, 2015 5:48 pm
Hi All,
I'm using Zoneminder 1.28.x, latest stable version.
Thxs for the Devs/users for this great tool.
I have integrated a Dahua Mini-Dome PTZ Camera.
I have setup a dahua.pm perl file with the http commands to control it.
I had to use a spec I found online and wireshark IP packet sniffer to figure out the correct commands.
I'm still working on the control file.
One thing I have noticed is that when I tell the camera to pan , tilt, or zoom,
the video is delayed by 5+ secs. I thought this might be due to the number of buffers assigned to the camera.
The camera responds quickly but the video is delay.
Is there a way to make the video display much quicker.
I have reduced the buffer size, but that helps a little, but it makes motion detection not reliable,
and the number of frames before/after alarm too small.
Thxs!!,
Kevin
