Hi,
I have 6 camera configured in Mocord mode.
Sometime happen that Section length @600 seconds is not onored.
In this screenshoot there is an example:
- 2017-02-16 11_12_44-ZM - Events.jpg (29.27 KiB) Viewed 2697 times
as you can see, the event started @7.20 did not finished @7.30, but @7.43, and the event after it was shorter that Section length.
Why this?
Many Thanks
Marco

Hi,
i keep situation monitored.
It seems that continous recording stop and restart, when a cam detect lots ov movement. I don't know if this is cause due camera fails due lot o data to be trasmitted or ZM fail to handler the data too.
Here is the logs for last occurence:
Code: Select all

My record events all stop and start on 10 min intervals, sometimes the frame count varies by a few frames. I am thinking in your case the mocord option is keeping the event open, i.e. in this 5000 frame event you had 1000 alarm frames. It is only a theory I would need to check the code on mocord to confirm exactly. But try record only for a period and see if you get more consistent event lengths.
It could be some of the post event buffer settings causing alarms to merge into a single event.
