Install ffmpg

Post by racelife »

I just rebuilt my server after many years of great service but the tutorial on the wiki didn't have anything about installing ffmpg can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial or directions on how and where to install it? or will a simple apt-get install ffmpg work and put it in the correct place? I want to be able to download video to hand over to the authorities if needed.

Ubuntu server 16.04
ZoneMinder 1.30.4

Thanks,
Race

ffmpeg is installed when you install Zoneminder.


PATH_FFMPEG setting is: /usr/bin/ffmpeg

Good instructions in case you used something else: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Ubuntu_Serv ... e_easy_way

Thank you! my path was set wrong... So now I was able to generate a video but when I go to download I get

File not found

Firefox can't find the file at http://192.168.1.200/zm/index.php?view= ... oadIndex=0.

Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

Any Ideas?
