As hinted it in http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=21156&p=80211#p80211 Is it possible to add an option to specify a command to be run when a [IP?] camera is dropping the signal, or otherwise misbehaving? It would need to be per-camera, not global, as some cameras may not support ...

it's not like zm can do anything about it like send the camera a reset. True, but at least in can tell the difference and log it, turn the status RED etc. I'm sure someone somewhere has a mod that could reset the camera remotely. If not, that should be a feature request :) Actually, I use a (timed)...

either via /video/mjpg.cgi or via /image/jpeg.cgi. Could someone point me towards links as to why one would chose one or the other? In my opinion: MJPEG should be more efficient. Although both streams are likely to be similar quality, on my DLink DCS900 cameras, MJPEG is kicked off with a single HT...

Purge When Full This filter is already installed, but needs enabling "Archive Status equal to Unarchived Only" "and Disk Percent greater...

Is this screengrab taken from the"Event" view? The white text you call gibberish says "Time to first event = ? seconds". This makes me think that maybe you have the event view showing "Replay: [All Events]", where it pauses and shows that screen until it's "time for" the next event, i.e. real time. ...

I've already lowered JPEG quality to 60 when no alarm is running. I've also thought of enabling dedupe function of ZFS... but then, it's a low end atom processor, it will die trying to dedupe data. If you're thinking the de-dupe of ZFS will help compress the image data, it won't work. No two images...

for a reminder?

According to the ZM wiki, the monitor should be a link that I can click to view the cam output. It is never a link. Does anyone have it as a link in the console? It is rendered as "not-a-link" if the camera is not functioning or not enabled. So :- Have you set the camera's parameters correctly unde...

ooo thank you. you know this error?

the problem that is occupying space 2x in HD right? ex: right would store 1 gb in which case store 2gb understand? Ah -- if that's what you were worried about, then no. That's the beauty of a symbolic link. You are looking at a graphical representation that hides the underlying details, it looks li...

I forgot posting on the weekend means no one sees your post. I've seen something like this and not understood the mechanism. Sometimes, an event in the list will appear as "Event-220(r)" and will show up as having no frames. There often IS a directory with some content in from "around" that time +/...

That looks normal, in my events directory there are actual numbered directories containing the events, and symbolic links from "fake" directories that have the name of the cameras drwxr-xr-x 2 apache apache 4096 Mar 30 00:02 10 drwxr-xr-x 3 apache apache 4096 Apr 1 15:13 4 drwxr-xr-x 3 apache apache...

Have you created the video first? I think you can only EXPORT a video through that dialogue if one exists . You seem to have said "don't export anything, except for a video (if it exists), and it doesn't, so do nothing". :) [EDIT: I just tested this: I went to an event, hit Export with the same opti...
