Changes in the light creates events.

Post by ganomi »

Hi.

I have got a problem. When daylight changes in the room it triggers events.
Sometimes this event runs for long time and takes a lot of space.

Any way hot to get rid of this problem?

My cameras are D-Link DCS-920.

I have the same issue, have tried changing a few options but still seems to pick up the most miniscule changes in light...

Anyone had any luck in stopping this from happening?

Where do we find the option of "Overload Frame Ignore Count"?

Nevermind, I found it.

FYI, it is under the zone settings for that monitor.

ganomi - I see you've played with the minimum blob size try increasing it gradually. Also a basic setting "Reference Image Blend %ge" on the source general tab can help greatly with what you trying to do. The wiki documentation explains this setting in detail. Try adjusting up and down from your current setting.
