Hello Phil,

I had some problems with the creation of the video's. First I was 'hit' by the ffmpeg "MPEG1/2 doesnt support xx/1 fps" bug. Second some video's gave problems because of some characters (? and ,) in the video description.

I changed zmvideo.pl to use another filename and to use mp4 files instead of mpeg1.

#my $video_file = "$video_name.mpg";
my $video_file = $event->{MonitorId}."_".$event->{Id}.".mp4";

(For best results I limit by camera's to 10fps and added "-b 300" to the ffmpeg options)
