zmfilter info.

i have made test with zm 0.15 and 0.16 and in both the only way the filter works is in active "modec" mode..
if zm is in passive or other mode delete filters dont work.
this is by camera..

zmfilter only runs when in one of Mocord, Modect or Record modes so that is why your filters did not execute in Monitor mode. This may not be preferable however so I've changed it in the version I'm uploading now so it runs in any mode except 'None'.

I don't know why it should make any difference between the active modes though.

Hi Fernando,

If you edit zmfilter.pl and look for where VERBOSE is defined. Set that to 1, restart zmfilter (or the whole thing) and see if there's anything more useful in the logs.
