Re: 1.28.1 Upgrade Compile error - CentOS 6

You didn't mention what version of ffmpeg you have, but here is my best guess. if ( mFormatContext ) 213 { 214 avformat_free_context( mFormatContext ); 215 mFormatContext = NULL; 216 } But avformat_free_context is an ffmpeg API change. https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/master/doc/APIchanges 2011...

Re: images not ok

Under the Source Tab of the camera change Remote Method to RTP/RTSP, this uses TCP and stops packet loss on ffmpeg UDP connections.

Re: FFMPEG & RTSP Blue Screen

Current method of selecting tcp over up in ffmpeg source is in Source Tab of the camera, change Remote Method to RTP/RTSP, this uses TCP and stops packet loss on ffmpeg UDP connections. But most people with UDP packet loss see half complete images that trigger motion, not sure if blue screen is a sy...

Re: Random blurry image triggers modect

Was answering someone else and was easy to paste this. Under the Source Tab of the camera change Remote Method to RTP/RTSP, this uses TCP and stops packet loss on ffmpeg UDP connections. Need to find why ffmpeg loses packets on UDP, but seems to be common enough to say it is an ffmpeg bug, or a buff...

Re: Image distorts keeps triggering alarms

Under the Source Tab of the camera change Remote Method to RTP/RTSP, this uses TCP and stops packet loss on ffmpeg UDP connections. Need to find why ffmpeg loses packets on UDP, but seems to be common enough to say it is an ffmpeg bug, or a buffer we need to increase in size.

Re: Saving records as mpeg/h264 ?

There is some work towards doing this in github, I am slowly working through some issues with the branch to get it up and running again. Previous devs who did all the hard work have moved on, but thanks for them. https://github.com/ZoneMinder/ZoneMinder/tree/feature-h264-videostorage. Does it work y...

Don't have PTZ but I believe the scripts all live here if you want to add to Github.

Re: zoneminder record mode problems

You may not find a way to fix it while maintaining quality. Try adjusting the Frame rate out of the IP camera first see if that helps, then you will need to start reducing the resolution. Others may have some suggestions.

Re: email alert not working

1.26.5 on 14.04 will probably have multiple issues, try 12.04, or if you must have 14.04 get on dev builds from github. There is a PPA for the master branch.

Re: How to use libvlc

The required package names are stated in the zonemidner README file for Ubuntu, CentOS, and Fedora. The names vary by distro. I think master Readme package list for Ubuntu is missing packages for some of the new functionality. I couldn't see curl or vlc libs, I would add them but i forget which one...

Re: How do you upgrade to V1.27.1?

I thought that log loading issue might have just been me. Couldn't find it logged as an issue on github, so I logged it and submitted a pull request to fix it.
