Re: Events don't have end times
Typically I see events not able to fully record when there are CPU / resource limitations. Alternatively, if you have a camera that is not supported well by FFMPEG / ZM that could cause an issue. What make / model camera? An example of a proper purgewhenfull filter is here: https://wiki.zoneminder.c...

Re: Unable to connect to Reolink D820A cameras
With some models of Reolink cameras, people have reported that it's necessary to enable RTSP on the web interface to get them to start the RTSP server on port 554. For example, I searched the forum and this came up: https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?p=131898&hilit=reolink+enable+rtsp#p...

Re: Trying to setup a docker test env.
Seems the Dockerfile is missing. Found zmdockerfiles https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zmdockerfiles/blob/master/buildsystem/ubuntu/impish/Dockerfile With the following result : ~/dev/zoneminder$ docker build -t linuxlover9/zm-1.36.33-chk .

Re: Best way to set up server for Zoneminder??
Camera selection is important. What make / model cameras are you going to be using?

Re: Zoneminder setup Vs Wyze cameras
The general problem with running camera solutions like Wyze, or whatnot, is it may not be future proof. It's also closed source software. You depend upon their servers for either the app or the videos, and if they discontinue the service then you have useless equipment. If you get at least an ONVIF ...

Re: PC recommendations
I run Dell Poweredge rack servers, the R700 series. There are a couple gens you can go for depending on budget. The R720 is like $250+ for used w/ 24 cores, and I run that with around 30 cameras, doing ZMES on some of them. Record on all of them. Get newer gen if the budget affords it. Ebay is flood...

Re: Can I Stream ZM video?
I'm referring to the instructions for getting a token, which are from: https://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api.html What needs to be done is some work on setting up a proper proxy or rewrite so that you can put these streams on an internet website without the token being exposed. I haven't n...

No worries, ask away. I put that together although it is adapted from the official docs (with some changes).

Re: Can I Stream ZM video?
See: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/External_Live_Stream for one way to do this.
The API method is recommended for security purposes. I'd say if it's a public webpage you might want to proxy it,, and or rewrite the URL to hide any token.

Re: Database Cleanup?
This was recently talked about. The zm.Event_Summaries table is the one that has the data that shows on the website. When backing up only the config, it is ignored see: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/MySQL#Backup_config_only and that starts the numbers back at zero. I think in your case clearing the ta...

Re: ZM settings for recording motions from a Raspberry Pi NoIR filter camera stream
You didn't mention your zone settings. Those matter the most. Zones is the last option on the console page. Farthest to the right. See: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Dummies_Guide#Example_Zone I uploaded an example image with settings that will not miss motion. They will however, generate false events...
