Filter question on monitor id/names.

[daveis]

Hello,
zoneminder version 1.26.5
Ubuntu 14.04

I have a question on filters. I have three camera's setup. They are working correctly and firing off events. I want to setup filters specific to each camera to upload and or email. I have tried setting up filters by both Monitor name and by Monitor id but the filters seem to ignore these values.

Example:
Filter Name: Camera-1 email-upload
Monitor id - matches - 1 (tried with equal to and also by name)
and
Alarm frames greater than or equal to 100
and or
Total Score greater than or equal to 150

Now it seems like when an event gets filtered it should only match if it meets the first criteria but what I have found is I am getting multiple emails from each one of these filters (one from each camera filter)

I am probably just doing something wrong, hopefully someone has seen this before. Thanks

So I messed around with this for a while longer last night and found that this worked:

Monitor Name - Matches - Camera-1
and
Alarm Frames - greater than or equal to - XX

The filter only catches events from Camera-1.

But when I also had the:
and or - Total Score - greater than or equal to - XX

The filters were catching on all monitors. Seemed to ignore the Monitor Name all together.

Anyone have any ideas?

This works for me so not to worried at this point, just curious.

Thanks
