Re: 2.5k resolution // live view
Thanks! I'll try to do that. Please tell me, what type of function should I use for 2.5k? I understand that I in 2.5k stream 'link' with 1080p, but in what function? in 1080 I'll stay with MOCORD. Set the 2.5K cam to MONITOR. In the same cam General/Linked Monitors select the 1080 cam to be the ...

Re: 2.5k resolution // live view
Yes, for now I will stay with this solution. But the question is WHY is working poor with 2,5k? In terms of CPU usage there is still big headroom (~90%), also the same in RAM. What I'm missing? Possibly a drive write bottleneck. Do your continuous recording/motion detection (MOCORD) at 1080P and ...

Re: Amcrest IP4M-1053E PTZ control
Should be the same for any Amcrest PTZ cam
Controlable (checked)
Control Type - Amcrest HTTP API
Control Address - http://user:password@cam-IP-Address
Set the preset positions in the camera GUI (1-5)
Note: I have the best success using the "admin" user in the cam.

Re: Storage disk replacement - database considerations
FWIW - I recently was given a Dell Precision Workstation - i7 12 core. I set it up as a new server with the same version of Zoneminder as the old server, used a backup of the old server database and copied the events to the new server. Job done! Only had about 80 GB of events and that took the most ...

Re: Storage disk replacement - database considerations
Would be best to add the new drive to the computer then set up ZM to use it leaving the old drive in place. Set a filter to delete the events on the old drive, 100 at a time and when the old drive is empty remove it from ZM, remove the mount from Linux and take the drive out of the computer.

Not a good idea to turn off a firewall! Worse than going outside in the winter with no pants...
Maybe the new router from the ISP is borked. I use my own router that way I control my network!

Re: New install , Newbie , New camera
No. On the Monitor Source Page there is a Capture Resolution setting that basically has to match the camera resolution. You can vary this setting usually by halves of the camera max resolution. But for starters use the camera resolution. Your camera resolution is 2560x1440 In the Storage area ...

Re: Ubuntu 24.04 and Zoneminder install
Are you doing the install as root? Do you do "sudo su" and get a prompt for a password?
Any install on Linux needs to be done as root which is the administrator. Maybe that is why your commands are4 failing.

Could it be that there is a language difference? As English, well American English, is my native language I do not have an idea what folks in other lands experience. If you are not experienced with Linux and the Linux variations and using the command line you may have problems. Debian and Ubuntu are ...

Re: Ubuntu 24.04 and Zoneminder install
May be best to start with a clean install of Ubuntu server. Then follow the WIKI install. Use Mariadb server and not MySQL. The install script will set up and start Zoneminder. Make sure you use http://serveripaddress/zm to access Zoneminder. If you use a Ubunto desktop version use http://localhost/zm
