Can't archive events? Archive shows 0 count?

HI, A while ago my kids did some really cool things that zoneminder caught, and I *THOUGHT* I archived those events so they wouldn't auto-delete -- I wanted to use them for a video when they were older. I went to look for them today and couldn't find them -- the system says there are no archived eve...

No red outlines around motion alerts

Hi, I am running ZM 1.34.1 on FC31 and I have everything configured as I think it should be in order to get analysis frames with outlines. I've got Options/Config CREATE_ANALYSIS_IMAGES checked. I've got monitor/general / Analysis FPS set to 5.00. I have monitor/storage / Save JPEGs set to Frames + ...

Re: Event Duration

Over 16k events, I definitely have a few 2-second events, lots of 3-second events, etc. Of those 16k events, about 200 of them are less than 8 seconds long.

Re: Event Duration

My MinSectionLength is set to "10" (seconds, I presume), but I still see events shorter than that?

Thanks. That's what I thought.

Right now I'm hitting an issue where the 32GB and 4 cores + hyperthreading I have in my system might not be enough... :(

mysql -u zmuser -p zm
UPDATE Monitors SET ImageBufferCount=100 WHERE SOMETHING etc.
I am fine using MySQL -- but would the running zmc/zma apps adjust immediately or do I have to restart them manually if I adjust the database?

Is there a way to mass-adjust camera/monitor settings?

Hi, I've got 31 cameras currently configured on my ZM system, 17 1080p Besder PoE cameras, 13 Reolink 420-5MP cameras, and one Doorbird (720p). As I work to get everything adjusted and set up, I'm finding I need to make changes to things like Buffers and other settings for all my cameras. It is very...

Keyframe Interval on Besder 1080P camera too infrequent?

Hi, I bought a bunch of Besder 1080P PoE cameras. They work fairly well with ZM and were very easy to set up, however for all of them I am receiving warnings that the ImageBuffer setting is too low. I have that set at 40, and it is suggesting I increase it to at least 51. I am running at 5fps in 108...

Re: Event Duration

Are you recording jpeg's or mp4 video? I am recording H264 passthrough at ~5fps from the cameras with an ImageBuffer of 40 and 6.25% blend and 6.25% alarm. I suspect that for my 1080p indoor cameras I might need to reduce at least the second if not the first as well. For example, a couple events to...

Re: Image buffer size

I am having a similar issue with my cameras. I've got Besder 1080p PoE cameras and all of them are reporting this issue. As is my Doorbird camera. For doorbird it was telling me "20 is too small, increase to 31". I increased to 35, and now it says "35 is too small, increase to 51"...

Re: Event Duration

I'm running 1.34.1 on FC31 and I received a 46-second event, so it's not a limit per-se.

However I *AM* having issues with event duration in that events end even when there is still movement in the frame.

Re: Doorbird D101 Door Intercom

I have read the API of Doorbird and it says, that only one video stream is possible. What happens when somebody rings the door, and I then want to view the stream on the app? Does it really stop the stream to zoneminder? I just set this up with my doorbird and ZM installation (using the RTSP URL di...
