With almost a half million views on this message thread at this point, I think that would indicate that many, many people like the original user interface.

That script is checking to see if the zmdc.pl daemon is running. And part of it is checking to see if a good response comes back from the daemon. I don't think that is as accurate as running a second zmdc.pl command as I described in my previous message. In my examples, a second instance of zmdc.pl ...

If you can write a bash script, here are some command lines that you can include to maybe do what you need: In Ubuntu, you might have to add "sudo" to the start of each command. On other Linux systems, running the script as root will work. This command will check the current status of zoneminder130 ...

On your Ubuntu 22.04 system, the ZM130 installation would have already created this file for you. It is called "zoneminder130.service" and can be found at: /usr/lib/systemd/system/zoneminder130.service However, I don't think this will do what you want it to do. Systemd won't restart it because in ...

I completely blew past the word Autostart in your post. Or maybe it should be autoREstart. I'll have to think about a good solution as I've never had to do this. Anytime I've had a camera lose its connection, I usually just login to that particular camera and restart the camera and it gets a ...

It's usually not ZM that needs to be restarted. Restarting ZM will restart everything. Sometimes, if only one camera is affected, you can restart FFMPEG for that one camera. You can do this by clicking on its entry under the SOURCE column and then click SAVE. If you prefer to restart ZM, then click ...

In the timeline window, you can also zoom in and out to view less time or more time. Instructions are listed right in the timeline window itself.

Sorry for the slow reply, I've been dealing with some tornado damage we had here in Michigan a week ago. I just got power restored today. If you only have 72 hours worth of events and want to view them, select anything from the "week" column and that will contain all 72 hours since it is less than ...

For anyone interested in a little reading, as of this date, here is what has been done to ZoneMinder130 compared to the original ZoneMinder 1.30.4: Updated much of the code to work with newer Linux OS's as well as the latest versions of ffmpeg, php, and mariadb. This first release includes support ...

I can see you've put in a lot of effort modernizing it. This project was not easy to accomplish. There were many times when I almost gave up on it. And then I would figure out how to make another part of it work and decided to keep going. Eventually, it all came together. I wanted to retain the ...

Rockedge, thanks for all the testing you have done. You have helped to confirm that ZoneMinder130 installs and runs OK on PuppyLinux. One of my goals with ZM130 is to make the installation as simple as possible with no additional fooling around configuring this and configuring that. I've wanted it ...

The next release of ZoneMinder130 is available. You can find it here: https://clickheresoftware.com/zoneminder130/ This version has been tested on Debian 11 bullseye, Debian 12 bookworm, Debian 13 trixie, Ubuntu 22.04 jammy, Ubuntu 24.04 noble, and also on two different Puppy Linux versions ...

You say you used the "previously" downloaded version? What about the most recent one I sent you a link for in a private message? With that, you don't have to install anything ahead of time because the installation doesn't fail due to no systemd. It will install everything for you and set up the ...

rockedge,

I believe the next release of ZoneMinder130 is ready to go. But, before I release it, it would be great if you could test it one more time for me, please. I sent you a private message with a link to download the deb file.

Thanks for reporting those PHP warnings. They aren't really errors... yet. As PHP evolves, they will eventually be eliminated from new versions of PHP and that is when they will be an issue. In the meantime, I will be replacing them with whatever works in their place. That explains why the program ...
