Hello all

How can I change the location of the timestamp?

I also want to know how to display total disk space ussage in the banner of the page.
This is bacuase I have a dedicated disk for each camera and I want to quickly see usage at the top of the page for each disk. Currently it shows load/DB/Storage: dev/shm:

Does the PurgeWhenFull filter automaticaly apply itself to all disk drives or do I have to setup a filter for each attached drives/storage locations?

ZM: v1.34.25

Regards

Fred

The time stamp location is in the same tab on the camera setup window as the time stamp format.

Each storage pool needs a purge filter. This topic should help.

I have attempted to move the timestamp as per the docs. EG, Y=image hieght -8 should place the timestamp at the bottom of the image. But there seems to be no change for me.

The filter was an easy fix, thank you.

I use the camera timestamp because ZM does not write them with passthrough so I will not be much help with that.

I assumed that in the camera setup was the only place to change it. So that is where I have changed it.
I also attempted to change the font to large without any effect.

So it seems I have been leading myself up the preverdial garden path.

My cameras themselves impose the date/time in the image. On closer inspection ZM is placing the Date/Time where expected, as it is in a black background.

Now to get the disk space used to show in the banner of the page.
