The problem is not that the camera is up or down. The problem is when the camera returns to UP, zma is no start. then not start the recording. but you can viewing. Step 1: Camera is UP Zoneminder Recording OK Zoneminder viewing OK Step 2: disconnect the power of the camera Camera is DOWN (this is n...

I am curious to find out if the new RTSP streaming is a little more CPU friendly. I have observed that at 7-9 FPS, zmc seems to use about 20-30% of the CPU on an Athlon 64 3200 -- and about the same for an X2 3800 (basically the dual core of the same processor.) Unfortunately, I currently do not hav...

So I have successfully tested an old Hauppauge WinTV card I had laying around in xawtv using the composite input. This said, I wanted to get a camera set up on it but it seems I am having difficulties getting zoneminder to use the correct color palette. For every palette at 320x240, I only get a bla...

Thank you for taking the time to read my question. The problem is after adding the last card, the /dev/video* address changes upon reboot. I have seen similar issues with other devices in various releases of Ubuntu. You may also want to check your udev scripts, and if need be -- hard code the devic...

I finally got around to trying to implement this on my zm server. One thing which is unclear to me and I am having difficulties figuring out, how do I define a filter for the most recent event(s)? The question itself seems fairly simple, but when I apply it to practice I get vastly different results...

if no one objects... I may be able to upload a package to my PPA.

As stated with my last submitted patch, you can just upgrade your version of ffmpeg -- but if you are in a situation like me, and find that other stuff will break as a result, then here is the patch for the error " zm_sdp.h:222: error: use of enum 'RTSPLowerTransport' without previous declarati...

This appears to be an enum in the lastest version of FFMpeg See the following url for details: http://cekirdek.pardus.org.tr/~ismail/ffmpeg-docs/rtsp_8h.html It may be possible to hack together a patch against zoneminder to make this build and function properly. On a related note -- What MythTV does...

Did you manage to get this working?

I have three webcams which all exhibit the same behaviour, "Palette: 0 - Unknown". I haven't had time to look into it for the past couple months. I have seen this issue with 1.23.x and the 1.24.x pre-release.

Do you know if you are running v4l2 or v4l1?

It would be really nice if zoneminder supported sftp. Aside from encrypting the transfer of tarballs to the remote host, it also allows one to use public key encryption and passwordless logins.

I can't speak for anyone else... but sftp/openssh is far less work for me than maintaining an ftp server.

Just out of curiosity, what would you say the the average FPS with the IC-1000 and IC-1500?

Correct, ffmpeg is required. Ah.. Fixed that much, but now have an issue where zoneminder is trying to use call the function ff_dynarray_add. zm_sdp.o: In function `sdp_parse_line': /home/majost/src/zoneminder-1.24.0/src/zm_sdp.c:418: undefined reference to `ff_dynarray_add' Unfortunately the versi...

Updated. Slights tweaks to RTSP streaming and other minor web and script issues.
