Zoneminder on Freenas

Hi
Total ZoneMinder noob here...
I have FreeNAS 11-3 running ZoneMinder V1.32.3 in a jail.
I have a single camera currently set to 'Record'.
The system operates exactly as expected and records events in 10 minute segments.
All good, however when I try to view events, any which are recorded after midnight each night will not play back - error message on screen says 'The video could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported'.
Strangely, recordings from approximately 11am the next day onwards (until midnight) will view fine.
This behaviour repeats itself daily, with the first playable video starting from around 11am- to 11.30am each day then the rest play ok through to midnight.
I'm assuming this issue might be related to a time setting in the SQL database, or something similar, given it appears to be a time related issue.
I've done some searching and I'm thinking the recordings are there, it's just the link in the events page that doesn't work? I'm not savvy enough to start editing config files, etc. though without some guidance.
Please let me know if you need further technical information regarding my setup and I'll try to provide.
Many thanks!
Andy
