Maybe you need\ to increase your WATCH_MAX_DELAY setting. If it takes too long to get an image, zmwatch will kill zmc. The default of 10 seconds is too little for some cameras. I use 45.

I took a quick look with an online demo camera... it may be that we need to request control before actually sending the control commands.

Huh.. thought that I had dealt with this... quick fix for now:

in /usr/bin/zmonvif-probe.pl on the first line, remove the T, so change it to

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

I would love to spend some time hacking one of the dvrs and making it easy to put ZoneMinder on them. However no one wants to pay for it.

The other thing you can try is the Remote Monitor type.

debian 10 deprecated some libraries that we use. So the version in raspbian comes without those features.

Go to https://zmrepo.zoneminder.com for instructions on how to get our version which has everything.

THe filter issue is due to your db not being up to date. Please run:
mysql -u zmuser -p zm < /usr/share/zoneminder/db/zm_update-1.33.14.sql

You seem to be telling it to tune to channel 3. usb webcams typically only have 1 channel. (Capture cards have many, typically 4 per bttv chip).

The ppa will contain packages in a few minutes.I am aware of several issues with mysql. I just upgraded to Eoan yesterday so testing is ongoing.

Hey All,

I just merged some code to master that allows you to set the timezone from the web ui instead of in /etc/php/apache2/php.ini.

So any documentation that says to edit php.ini is now obsolete.

Now you go Options->System->TimeZone.

Guys I moved the timezone setting into options. SO now you can set it from the UI. Options->System->Timezone.

Works fine on my 32bit debian install.

You need to add a stateful=1

The API is stateless, so now if you want to use cookies, etc you have to specifically tell it to. Otherwise add the user=&pass= to every request

Let's be clear, we don't start the Id's at 1. mysql starts any sequence at 1. There can also be gaps.
