I've reviewed the fix... looks ok to me.

I have applied it to master and it will be included in 1.26.6

Generally either here or on github is the place to report bugs... github is better generally.

For those who are using my zoneminder ppa, and update to libsys-mmap-perl is there which should fix the problem. All others should reference upstream

Have you tried telling ZM to use the newer method?

What dist are you on? We have a bug report/patch for centos 6 that may be related here.

Try larger, like 4GB or whatever your amount of memory is.

Remember there may be other programs using shm, so if zm needs 512MB, then shmall needs to be larger.

Your camera is 320xsomething isn't it.

The event popup tries to be image width + 108px, but with a minimum of 496 pixels. 320px + 108px < 496px.

You could somehow increase your image size... or just ignore the warning, or comment out the warning in /usr/share/zoneminder/skins/classic/js/skin.js

Who did you donate to? On here? That goes to the original developer, who is no longer active. Doesn't go to anyone actually working on the code.

For donations, please contact the developers at github, or use bountysource.com

I was under the impression that we had already added them all. Please point out any that we have missed.

Yes, I have some code for this, specific to the cameras that I have. I will add it someday. If you'd like it faster, feel free to post a bounty at bountysource.com.

We would be happy to receive a patch.

I don't think writing small files 24/7 will wreck your drives. If you want the drives to spin down... well then the spinup/down puts more wear and tear on your drives. Currently ZM deals only in jpgs. Future versions will write videos streams. How this affects the qty of writes remains to be seen. Y...

No one is working on it as far as I know. Please feel free to take it on.

For that matter, at some point I'd like to be DB agnostic, so keep that in mind.

Hey mitch,

where are you guys doing most of your work? Maybe I should be tracking your repos.

I'm currently trying to get onboard with github. I wanted to follow the eyezm/zoneminder tree, but it doesn't seem to be up to date.

Hi mitch, Just wanted to let you know that I am including your patch in my tree. I'm making a git repository of the latest zoneminder code + all the useful patches. So far, yours, mastertheknife's performance improvements, the readline stuff, and my work on supporting multiple zone minder servers on...

Something to be aware of: the stuff that sets up the database has been removed (it needs to go in it's own package). So you need to create the db yourself wherever it should go. You might find it easiest to first install zoneminder-1.24.2 from the standard ubuntu, and then add my ppa and upgrade to ...
