Not a complaint, but a potential bug report.

Trying to export videos, keep getting these errors:
Date/Time
Component Server PID Level Message File Line
2020-08-09 11:38:58 web_php 71136 ERR /tmp/zm/zmExport_.tar does not exist or is not readable. /usr/share/zoneminder/www/views/archive.php 71

I have tried both .tar and .zip formats.

Still learning all the ZM nuances, great product and looking forward to using it more!

So far not able to reproduce it.

Please document your steps a bit more.

Same problem for me.

Version 1.35.5, Ubuntu, isaac PPA master.

1 monitor, source type Remote, HTTP (IP Webcam Android app).

Monitoring and motion detection is working finde, can view videos in browser (Chrome and Firefox).

I have archived some videos and trying now to download them. I click on the number under "Archived" and get the list of events.
Select all videos.
Click "Download Video".
"Zip" is already selected (no difference wheter select zip or tar).
Click generate Download.

A html is generated with a download link, but imediatly before I can click the button the page changes and html is suddenly empty.
URL http://<host>/zm/index.php?view=archive&type=&connkey=

Log error:

Should be fixed in latest master.

I have tested exporting videos in Zineminder master 1.35.5~20200816200911-focal today. Can export mp4 videos without any problem.
