ZoneMinder Forums

I don't want to do that. In that scenario, it depends my memory, if I remember to put recording on. Better is let it record all time, but upload events only as "backup", if somebody finds and steals my zoneminder box.

Hi, I want zoneminder to send events via ftp, but only when I am not home. I can activate upload filter when I leave home, but it starts to upload old events. I can't find how to limit events recorded after filter is activated. I tried this: "date/time greater than -10 minutes" Goal is to ...

by the way;

You maybe want also repair/optimize mysql tables. For me it caused strange behavior. Power failure or something had messed my tables. It luckily has happened only once.

Generally, I think zm is very robust software. It hasn't never crashed for me.

I also noticed that if I enable email sending in options, it also causes zmfilter to fail. You can debug it running zmfilter.pl from command line. Just find binary first. It is in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin. For me it whines about perl zip componen, what guided me to investigate it. I changed UPLOAD...

I was facing that too. It started after I created filter that uploads events to my ftp server. I noticed that even deleting "upload" filter did not help. But after I unticked "should zoneminder support uploading events from filters" in options, it started working again. Maybe I h...

I solved this "dirty way": - I renamed classic-skin to admin - I did edit original classic skin, removed all buttons and hyperlinks and named it as classic Now users see my edited front screen without "dangerous" buttons and hyperlinks, and I can use admin skin. I know this can b...

Or is it possible to remove "options"- and "delete"button and hyperlinks to change function etc from default skin? I don't need real security, just to be sure that my wife don't do anything stupid by accident.

I am using apache htaccess security with zoneminder. Is there any way to limit user to only watch events/live stream with apache security? I know that zoneminder has built in user management, but for some reason it does not work for me. I contstantly get connection errors using built in security, an...

thanks!

Is it possible make filter that deletes events older than for example five days? I do mocord with four cameras daytime, and record one camera (other disabled) at night (motion detection does not work correctly at night) I want to delete recorded events for this camera that are older than 5 days, so ...

what kind of camera you have?

have you checked dmesg and system logs for errors?

There is heat sink, but small one. I have almost given up with this card, because using four cameras it is so slow, even if I could get it to work. I found this card on ebay: 320858510897 (ebay item number) It uses philips 7134 chips. Does anybody have that card in use? I found some mentions on foru...

Thanks for your reply. I have tested those settings, but they do not help. I have exactly same settings for all cameras. Biggest problem is jumping picture. It jumps one frame up and down in all cameras. I have tried all interlace settings etc. Mostly, when I unload and load bttv module, and restart...

Ok, I think that my one-chip pico card is the problem. If I have only one camera connected, there is just stable picture without problems. But after second one is connected, I have all kind of problems. Jumping picture and wondering brightness. I have tried all possible bttv options and zoneminder s...

Hi to Everybody. I built surveillance system using centos 6 and zoneminder 1.24.4. My goal was to integrate it with mythtv dvr-system. I have four composite cameras connected to pico card. Everything works fine, except I am getting lots of false alarms caused by brightness changes. I don't know what...
