Proper way to deactivate a broken camera in 1.37

[P_Dmitrij]

One of my cameras is dead for a couple of weeks and was submitted to repair. After disconnecting the camera, I've got a lot of errors in the log and decided to deactivate it temporary. As the Function was replaced with Capturing, Analysing and Record in the 1.37, I've changed follow settings:

• Set Capturing to None at Source tab
• Set Motion Detection to None at Analysis tab
• Set Recording to None at Recording tab

But even after this change, the ZMS tried to do something with the disabled camera and dropped constantly such errors in the log:

What is a proper way to disable temporary a camera in the v1.37? Perhaps it make sense to add a general check, like "if Capturing = None, then don't try to decode, analyse or record the stream" for using property Capturing as a camera "master switch".
