Foscam FI8904W infrared causing false alarms

Post by a_aguas »

Hi,

I'm using zoneminder to detect intrusions with an IP camera, that has infrareds for nightvision.

When infrareds turns on/off, the variation in the color of the image causes false alarms.

One solution can be setting the "Alarm Frame Count" buffer to a value equivalent to 2 seconds or the time needed for the image to be steady. The problem is that other intrusion(s) that last less than this time will be ignored.

Is there other method to solve this?

Thanks.
