Extracting complete video file

Hello, I have started creating 4 hour video recordings and they record fine. I am trying to generate the video file at x25 times speed and I get a file but it is only half of the video missing almost 2 hours. Could I be missing something in options ? When i watch in the console it plays fine. Please...

Re: Web connection not possible after watching some event

I have the same problem as well, I am going to take a guess here and I think it has to do with the config times of the checks filter reload, filter exe and max restart as they are default 300 each and I notice that the audit check is 900 so every 3rd time around all the checks are happening at the s...

Re: exporting event video without losing quality

I do my cams at 640 x 480 and I have exported with every format option, and I hear ya with the poor quality playing the file outside of the ZM console. I think editing the FFMPEG_OUTPUT_OPTIONS would be where I would start.

Re: PZT with Foscam FI8918W

How did you get the script to the ZM dir ? Did you do a cp from the command line ? Did you also check the permissions of the file? The bluecherry-zm-livecd 2.0b.iso is an easy install, I believe that its 1.24.2 and I tested with a VM and seems to be working off the hop. When I tried to get the scrip...

Re: PZT with Foscam FI8918W

How did you get the script to the zm dir ? You did a cp from the command line ? I too have had a problem with it, I could be wrong but I think you have to make it writable by zm ? I just settled for using the web for tilting ....

Re: No email/message sent

I have played with postfix yes, I was going to ask if it was needed. I have postfix running but I will have to play with it some more. Or I will have to settle for FTP. Thanks.

Re: webcam not working

Do you have the mode set to PAL ? My Logitech orbit will only work when set to PAL and does not when set to NTSC.

Re: not /zm but port? apache.conf

Perhaps just limit what the remote connections can do ? Just view not modify? Is this a home setting or enterprise setup ? Zoneminder works best on a dedicated box, how many tasks do you have Apache running ? Apache does not do port forwards.

Re: not /zm but port? apache.conf

Are you going to be connecting to it from the same WAN address every time ? I would say configure your firewall to only accept requests from the IP your connecting to and block everything else incoming. You could expose it and just make beefy credentials.
