You are misssing the small plus & minus symbols to click on to add or delete terms from the filter, they are supposed to appear in the upper right corner of the box, so you have a way to add a term, the default filter comes up with only 1 term & no + or - symbols. I didn't repeat the process...

On #3, yes, but not with ZM, what you are asking for is a video editor, so you can splice together a few zm segments to make one whole video. Easy if you use avidemux, open source linux video editor. Do this: File--> Open --> choose your vid file #1, then if it asks to index the file, say yes, it ma...

I don't think you can ever get reliable detection with that camera you are using at nite, in that garag...

Maybe this will help, it did give one warning about zm.conf:

warning: /etc/zm.conf created as /etc/zm.conf.rpmnew

Should I just rename zm.conf to somthing else & rename zm.conf.rpmnew to zm.conf & do a little hand editing ?

I did the 1.22.2 upgrade & it went without a problem, but the version # at the top still shows 1.22.0 I know it did install, there is a new feature where it shows a line of info above the playback of an event. Did I miss something ?
I don't have to run zmupdatepkg.pl anymore right ?
