Most folks I know do a port forward.
There are folks who also use it via VPN but they are less compared to those who port forward.

3.6 of the ES? No, we are at 4.5 now.

In new versions, in the montage screen, zmninja checks for new events every 30 seconds. This is to show the red bell buttons on montage windows. You are probably seeing authentication messages in ZM due to this API. If you want to turn it off, disable "Enable montage overlay buttons" in developer se...

1. Make sure you are on the latest ES
2. I've seen this happen at times (not as frequently as you report). ZM just stops reporting events on SHM even if I update the SHM handles on the ES. Not really sure why

As you might have already seen, the comments just above the setting say you need 1.33.x. Now that you have updated to 1.33.x, this should not happen. Please post debug logs. You'll know you are on the right ZM version, when you do the following test: 1. Launch a browser, login to ZM 2. Launch anothe...

Does it mean that the timezone value has no effect on zmninja ?

If you don't set the new timezone option in ZM correctly, zmNinja should show wrong timestamps when browsing events (because the timezone API will return UTC).

The problem appears to be that there are never any images placed in /var/lib/zmeventserver/images when an alarm occurs. Have you checked debug logs of the event server? Look for a message that says "Could not write image to ZoneMinder as eventpath not present" As far as I remember, 1.32.3 doesn't s...

It is almost always due to one of these:

Based on the email you sent, Basic Auth needs special handling. https://zmninja.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guides/FAQ.html#i-can-t-see-streams-i-use-basic-auth It is not possible for the user to choose a browser. The app uses a web view, and the system uses whichever web view is configured. Usually th...

If you are using APIs, you should switch to the newer token system.

Seems like for some reason the video is not playable inside the app (which uses Chrome).
Is it possible for me to get a test account with your system? If so, please email to pliablepixels@gmail

The latest master has fixed the API login issues. Note that this is only related to 1.33.x. This thread is in 1.30.4 but has since morphed into 1.32.x and now 1.33.x related issues.

Videos not playing are not related to APIs. Your logs seem to indicate there is a playback error.

1. Are you able to play the videos on your mobile browser? (Log into ZM Web Console from your phone)
2. Please send full Debug logs from the mobile when trying to play (please don't truncate)

TinyCam pro works directly with cameras (in addition to routing through ZM). If you are looking for a replacement app look around in this forum. There are two apps, really, at this stage: a) zmNinja (I am the author) b) Surveillance Pro zmNinja doesn't work directly with cameras. It only works with ...
