Try adding a mouse (bluetooth)
or changing the xy numbers of each point directly

A good place to check is the ispy database https://www.ispyconnect.com/sources.aspx

Changed the offending cameras source path from a http to a rtsp stream and its more stable now. Does a hiccup every now and then but shm does not fill up. My 2 daily state changes day/Night are enough to reset shm size. Keeping my shm size check script as a safety. Thanks for all the help and sugges...

As it stands now /dev/shm rises about 10% every hour which means every 6 hours zoneminder restarts via script which checks /dev/shm usage %.

But I also do a state change every 12 hours or so same affect as a restart.
will look into the monitor the remains in memory.

3 of the cameras are wifi only (2 of which old phones running IPcam), so they loose connection at times. Logs do go crazy when that happens but couldn't pin point it as the cause of /dev/shm filling up. How do u turn them of and back on? (states or scripting) If scripting can u please give me a star...

CPU : FX 4300 4core (4treads) 3.9MHz
5-7fps on most of the cameras
4 of them run at 15-20fps (cannot change from camera)
With logging on CPU usage is under 4
when I disable logging usually around 1-2 so no CPU issues.

Are u suggesting I add a cron job for rebooting the machine?
