Found zmvideo.pl issue 1.19.1 to 1.19.3

I can't create video since 1.19.1
MPEG streaming is working fine.

The only error I have is in

<zmvideo.log>

Code: Select all

Creating video file Event-214.mpg for event 214

If I look where it is supposed to be created

Code: Select all

ls -l /var/www/html/events/Front_Yard/214/
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 6 17:07 Event-214.mpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 6 17:07 mpeg.log

Is this a permisions issue maybe? I think that incorect information is being passed to ffmpeg maybe.

I running in gray scale with ZM_COLOUR_JPEG_FILES off
If I turn ZM_COLOUR_JPEG_FILES on and for fun I changed my camera to 640x480
then force an alarm and make a video from that.

Finished Event-224.mpg

This last step works. although the video quality is somewhat low and it passed 320x240 to ffmpeg.
So I guess I found that we need to be able to pass the correct pallet information into ffmpeg to be able to use b/w without ZM_COLOUR_JPEG_FILES on.
I will play more with it later.

For some reason the change to 640x480 hadn't been placed in the last event 224 so that information is correct. The only issue is the pallet information if you have your cams set to grey and have ZM_COLOUR_JPEG_FILES off . It still passes yuvj444p to ffmpeg.
