I have a couple of old analog cameras that I am connecting to with zmodopipe as outlined in this wiki post... https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Zmodopipe My problem is that despite zomodpipe, ffmpeg and ffserver all showing no problems, zoneminder consistently disconnects the camera and leaves it showing ...

I've documented troubleshooting email (ubuntu 14.04), and there is the original guide respectively here and here: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/SMS_Notifications https://wiki.zoneminder.com/How_to_get_ssmtp_working_with_Zoneminder Beyond that, it's hard to say. Compare the syslog from the working ser...

I've got ZM 1.30.4 on Ubuntu 16.04.5 and I've got ssmtp all properly configured and working to send emails. I've got the /etc/ssmtp.conf file set with proper permissions for www-data- to access it. When I do this... sudo -u www-data ssmtp -v myemail < mail.txt The email sends through just fine, and ...

Okay well I had hacked in a fix for this https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=27129 But since Chrome upgraded from that version to 68.blahblahblah it no longer works. Apparently they're implementing a whole new API. I suppose my other recourse would be to make a script that will pla...

Are you trying to make an image you can put on a new disk and have it boot right up with everything as you've installed? If I were you I would just clone to a new disk now versus waiting for failure, drive failures may not be catastrophic and can cause a lot of headscrathing when they begin to act e...

Hey asker, I think I have everything working right, but some strange stuff happened. Os: Ubuntu 16.04 ZM: 1.30.4 (from ubunting repo) Zmninja 1.3.013 After replacing my EventsController.php with the one linked to above I could view the 24hr review (as well as thumbnails in the event list, sweet!) bu...

Oh that sounds pretty nice, would it work on a tablet version of chrome very well too? I have been hesitant to try out 1.31 until its stable release, but there's already lots of new features I wanna use.

Well I had a really long piece of feedback that the forum destroyed so feel free to ask any questions... But basically I still have a couple 4.4 devices I have to use because I'm poor. One in particular will not work with anything besides zmninja, and has actually resulted in stopping a home invasio...

Did things change in 1.30? I thought I remembered the red analysis outline being visible on the event thumbnails. Meaning, I click a monitor or use the filter to get events, and the thumbnails used had the outline in them. Now I have to click the event, click frames, and then click the alarmed frame...

I was trying to setup ZoneMinder to send logs to /var/log/zm/ in individual log files so that I could track it outside of syslog. Anyway, I noticed that when I enabled the "component logs" option in the Logging options of the web console, that the API would no longer authenticate properly....

So I have 3 exterior cameras, and 1 interior camera. The exterior cameras monitor my front, back and side. I live in an apartment so I only need to monitor 3 exit/entrances from the outside. My kitchen is a central location in the apartment, meaning all rooms lead here, so I have an interior monitor...

Did you try VLC with your DVR stream? If you can get it to work in VLC it will work in Zoneminder. Yeah it just threw errors about the stream not having a frame and some kind of codec error I didn't understand, but it would show a frame of video and then crash. To be specific Swann DVR4-1300 model ...

I wrote up something on Zmodopipe in the wiki. Might help someone. https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Zmodopipe Thanks! Works okay enough for me so far. I have my DVR being captured on zoneminder via s-video but not being able to distinguish which camera set the motion is kind of a pain. For a while I won...

I have an old DVR that I want to setup to work with ZoneMinder. Right now I have it setup to send the TV-Out to my PC with a capture card and monitor it thorugh zoneminder like that, but I don't like that every channel is brought on one signal to be treated as a single monitor by zoneminder. I've be...

Hi david, I realize this is an older post, but it is more recent than most on this topic. I made an attempt at #1 on your list. I tried to take what I knew from C coding and carry it over, but I'm no coder. It's been working for me so far however. https://forums.zoneminder.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&...
