ZoneMinder Forums

I followed the guide to the letter including installing mariadb instead of mysql.

So is there no fix for the VLC issues?
How can I get ffmpeg to capture clear images, is there a guide?

Hi, I am running a fresh install of Zoneminder on Debian Stretch, installed using the guide and Debian's multimedia packages. I have a camera setup on Ethernet and finding that VLC is the only source type that gives a reliably clear picture. I have smearing issues with ffmpeg which seems to be a com...

HI, I want my filter to run the background forever and process each event as it is raised which it does seems to do once it has done one pass of all existing events. I was expecting it to keep track of those events it has already processed even after a filter is modified and continue with the next u...

A background filter with the following settings:
I click "save" but it seems to do what I would expect from "Execute"

Hi, I have a 1.29 installation and can't seem to edit filters without them running on against all existing events. I open the filter dialog, change something like the "alarms frames" for example and click save. This launches the "save filter" window which I leave as-is; with the ...

Did you get this working, I have events trigger twice a day due to the day/night transition.

Using the default zone settings (percent):

MIN/MAX ALARMED AREA 3/75
MIN/MAX FILTERED AREA 3/75

OK so by playing around with the filters I found that the "Notes" field actually contains the zone.

This seems to work for me

"Notes" "equal to" "Motion: Lane"

So far I can only trigger for a general cause:

"Cause" "equal to" "Motion"

What I want is

"Cause" "equal to" "Motion: Lane"

Hi, I am looking to setup different actions when different zones on the same monitor are triggered. I have a high sensitivity zone that triggers recording and I want these emailed. I also have a low sensitivity zone that triggers recording but I want these sent by SMS. Email and SMS are already setu...

Hi, I have a ZM 1.29.0 installation and have an IP camera setup on a wireless network and captured via VLC. The camera is on the boundary of the wireless network but streams at 25 FPS most of the time with the occasional drop in FPS or a short outage. If the camera drops off the network even briefly...

Well I spoke too soon, i've now got a different issue possibly with the cgi path?:

It's working. I'm hosting multiple sites on this server and found that my configuration was in a disabled site; oops! Once I got it in the right place my configuration seems to be working for me. # Zoneminder LoadModule rewrite_module libexec/apache2/mod_rewrite.so Alias /zm /usr/share/zoneminder/ww...

Hi I have a 1.29 zoneminder installation running Jessie from the backports repository. Everything is up and running apart from the API (which is the reason i installed this version). When I go to <URL>/zm/api i see the CakePHP screen with the red message stating: URL rewriting is not properly config...
