1.34.7 video segments erratic

Anyone else seeing erratic segment lengths? I recently upgraded to 1.34.7 on a system that was performing well. I have 20 cameras RTSP and some show erratic segment lengths ... one camera as an example typically 3000 frames ... then you'll see 65, 243, etc and then back to 3000. Logs not showing any...

Re: Downgrade to 1.36.x from 1.37

In my many attempts to get this work I tried the -s ... Once I got the full version correct I was able to downgrade to 1.36.5 apt install zoneminder=1.36.5-focal1 One follow-up question ... if you use the do_debian_package.sh with --snapshot=stable ... shouldn't that pull the 1.36 branch? As always,...

Downgrade to 1.36.x from 1.37

I'm stuck ... I've been running 1.37 for a while as I needed the newer zmeventnotification enhancements. Now that those enhancements exist in 1.36 I'd like to run 1.36.x. At one point the do_debian_package.sh with --snapshot=stable script downgraded my install to 1.36.x After a couple of weeks .. I ...

Re: Advice for high quality still images from h264 stream

Appreciate the input. I don't have a great perspective on the road .. as in no overhead perspective. Reading the best practices for detection indicates off center more than 30 degrees is not optimal. I only have a roadside perspective. I will experiment with fps and see if image quality is better. A...

Re: Advice for high quality still images from h264 stream

Reading documentation from OpenALPR and Phd papers seems to imply I should reduce my resolution and increase the FPS.

VBR with cap is recommended.

Trying reduced resolution 2304x1296 @ 30fps.

Advice for high quality still images from h264 stream

I'm looking for advice on the image quality front. I have a system that monitors a busy rural road corner and would like to do license plate detection, manual or automatic. In the manual case, the still image quality from a Amcrest 4k camera is barely enough. Remove storage size as a limitation ... ...

Re: Coral edgetpu on ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS zm 1.35.10

Missed the step to grant the www-data user access

sudo usermod -a -G plugdev www-data

Works! Huge time improvement over CPU based detection.

Re: Update Diskspace for events

I jumped to 1.35.9 but continue to see no function from the purge filter. I enabled debug and ran the exposed sql. The events diskspace column is null.

Is it the diskspace filter that is supposed to update this column?

Any help appreciated
