Re: Configuring control of PTZ unclear?

ugh. Couple things - can you give a link to the specs/manual/where you got this thing? And, sometimes these things need an app to get them initially set up. If that's the case, have you tried it? Given the focus problem, it may have just failed such that it can't re-initialize. Have you tried killin...

Re: Montage - problem when there are more than 5 monitors

It's easy to forget once it's set. :lol:
I keep the config saved in a couple places in case there's a crash.

Re: Zoneminder installation/start error

Yes, that's the LAMP. (Linux Apache Mysql/Mariadb Php)
You only need to install them; the ZM install will configure it all for a basic usable system, in most cases.

Re: Configuring control of PTZ unclear?

Maybe I'm just not understanding what you're trying to do, but I'm afraid you've gone down a rabbit hole... What you're looking at is the list of known cameras and what the script for it is capable of. You select one of those for a given camera, like so: Screenshot 2024-03-23 at 02-34-00 ZM - Monito...

Re: Zoneminder installation/start error

I suggest you look down at the 18.04 instructions to see if you missed anything. The Jammy instructions are not really complete.
You probably don't need to start over, just redo/do anything you may have missed. It is all critical for a successful install.

Re: Problems with new installation

GUI problems sometimes result from old cookies. Try clearing them for zm.

Try your path in VLC. If it works there, it'll work in ZM, and VLC's faster than testing with ZM.

Not sure exactly what you did with the Monitors table, but try adding M3 again and then delete with GUI.

Re: purgewhenfull does not list matches but works in the background

From you screen shot I am not sure why it would not have matches. Disco1 is at 45% and the filter is set to 20%. I would expect matches from what I am seeing. ISTR the diff is the test uses php and the actual filter uses real sql. or something like that. Anyway, I've seen this since forever, and ju...

Re: purgewhenfull does not list matches but works in the background

I also set the purge when full to 85% as I've had bad experiences with it set at 95%.
Yes. That's due to the default 5% reserve when formatting. So 95% + 5% = 100%. So out of space between filter runs is easily possible.
93 or 94 should be OK, at least most of the time.
