Unable to read videos from web console

[Oliv59]

Hello there ,

I installed recently ZM 1.32.3 on a raspbian stretch, running one camera Heden setup this way : Source type = ffmpeg, function = modetect, sourcepath = http://user:pass@ip/videostream.cgi?use ... ass&rate=0
Tout marche pas trop mal, mais j'ai un souci lorsque je veux visualiser les videos prises lors d'une alarme dans la console, j'ai le message : "The video could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported". When i access the video through SFTP / SSH, i can read it with vlc without any problem.
It that can help, i have those line in logs :
2019-03-03 22:27:24 web_php 855 ERR Setting to disabled /usr/share/zoneminder/www/includes/functions.php 462
2019-03-03 22:27:00 web_php 855 WAR Turning selected_monitor_ids into an array 1 /usr/share/zoneminder/www/skins/classic/views/_monitor_filters.php 69
2019-03-03 22:23:09 zmc_m1 1344 WAR Option rtsp_transport not recognized by ffmpeg zm_ffmpeg_camera.cpp

I suppose the option rtsp_transport not recognized might have something to do with my problem, but it's just a supposition, i might be totally wrong (above all, it doesn't appear every time i access a recorded video).
Through, in chrome inspector, i can also see this message :
VIDEOJS: ERROR: (CODE:4 MEDIA_ERR_SRC_NOT_SUPPORTED) The video could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported. vjs.MediaError {code: 4, message: "The video could not be loaded, either because the …rk failed or because the format is not supported."}

Any idea on how to fix this
Thanks for your help

Olivier.

Hello there,

Still didn't find a solution, through it would be my last really blocking point
Would it be because in camera setup, Storage tab, i chose "H264 Camera Passthrough" in "Video Writer" option ?
If it can be any help, if i try to reach directly the stream flow, through this url : http://192.168.1.X/zm/index.php?mode=mp ... user=admin, i see it really access the video file (according to the event id i chose, i see in chrome inspector the video file accessed and it fits the size of the video event), but i still can't see it, whatever is the used browser, IE, FF or chrome

Just loaded my Pi with Bionic and Zm 1.32.3. Can confirm that it does jpeg's just fine.

Storage-Save JPEGs - Frames only
Video Writer - Disabled

Yes, jpgs fine, but I want to record videos in case of alarms for motion detection.

No one can help me on this ? That's the last issue i have
If taht can be any help, noticed tonight that recorded videos are recorded twice the normal speed. For example, i had tonight a record of 53 secondes (according to console), and the generated video only lasts 26 seconds.
Thanks, keep doing good job

Last try, nothing to try, nothing to do for that ?

From what I've learned about Zoneminder on a Pi, you can not record videos directly. You can do jpeg's which should be able to be exported as a video file the same as any other Zoneminder install. I am currently running ZM 1.32.3 on a 64 bit Ubuntu Pi. Will try to take some time to see if the video export works.

Edit: Yes, the video conversion from jpeg's to video does work! There is your answer!

Hello bbunge,

I'm surprised, i have a video file (.mp4) found on my rasp pi (/var/cache/zoneminder/events/{monitor_id}/{date}/{event_id}/{event_id}-video.mp4).
And what do you call the jpeg's to veideo conversion ? Is it an automatic process ? Where is it ?
Thanks,
Olivier.
