Hikvision DS-2CD2443G0-IW

Just thought I would drop some info about this cam here as there didn't seem to be much out there about it for Zoneminder. This camera on the Hikvision site: https://www.hikvision.com/en/products/IP-Products/Network-Cameras/Pro-Series-EasyIP-/DS-2CD2443G0-I-W-/ Note: I just left it at the default h....

Just a shot in the dark but how are your CPU core temperatures in the daytime? Is it throttling due to heat during the day but then cooling off at night?

Re: Cannot export events

Just wanted to mention that updating to 1.36.19 seems to fix the issue for me. At least now I can generate a video and download it. 8)

Re: Everythign working great other than video dl and export

A shot in the dark here... Is there anything helpful/unusual in the webserver logs? I do see some errors which seem related to the montage view which I usually keep running. Though the errors are troubling they aren't constant and everything seems to be working there. (note blank line between some ...

Re: Everythign working great other than video dl and export

Debug log level 9 all components (hopefully I did this right)

https://pastebin.com/icv1jxac

All I did here was restart zoneminder and try to download a video of an event. Interestingly I see absolutely nothing in the log about this?

Everythign working great other than video dl and export

Hello I upgraded my Ubuntu Server to 20.4 and did a clean install of zoneminder 1.36.7 from the repo. Everything appears fully functional other than the video download and video export. When I try to export or view with either .zip or tar it says it succeeds and a zip or tar file is generated howeve...

Idea: more conditional Google reCaptcha support

Right now Google reCaptcha can be either turned on or off in the options. The problem with turning it on is apparently that it also blocks zmNinja and other API clients from logging in since they cannot handle the captcha. Idea: could we possibly do something like keep recaptcha off for the first lo...

Re: Possible to upgrade from 1.30.4?

Hello, I tried to upgrade but it had some error during the conversion of the db (sorry I should have taken a photo but was doing three things at once). But I did end up also upgrading the server to Ubuntu Server 12.04 from the old LTS as well as switching from mysqld to mariadb so quite a bit was do...

Re: zmNinja, ES+ML support discontinuation notice (in advance) : EOY 2021

Mainly wanted to say Thanks for you work. I bought the paid version many years ago and love zmNinja! Also I saw someone else already stepped up but if it gets near the deadline and nothing materializes I would be willing to step up and try my hand at maintaining it. or helping out. Probably only on ...

Possible to upgrade from 1.30.4?

Hello I have an old install on Zoneminder 1.30.4 on Ubuntu Server 18.04 I believe. Is it worth even trying to upgrade this or should I just do a clean install? Thanks.

Re: Using Raspberry Pi 4's versus a old computer

Hello, for myself cost isn't much of a concern as long as it is reasonable. I currently use a 500GB disk on the workstation and get at least two to three weeks retention. My current Pi 4 has a 250GB m.2 Sata drive. So if I buy another Pi and get another 250GB drive that would be about the same amoun...

Using Raspberry Pi 4's versus a old computer

Hello currently I have 4 cameras running. One is slightly above 1080p. The other 3 are 720p. Framerates 12-15 fps. This is currently running on a old Dell workstation. The problem is it uses a lot of power and even the best home use battery backup system I can buy cannot power it for more than 15 mi...
