Re: Rasbian help request
To get around the problem of no static IP I am setting up the pi to sync events to the cloud using rclone. I know I can automate the syncing using cron but I was wondering if zoneminder could be set to trigger the syncing when it's needed by performing a command line after an alarm is triggered. Ide...

Re: Rasbian help request
Is there a way to directly view the filters? I created them using the filter button on the web interface and having just looked cant see 4 seconds anywhere.
Edit: Sorted, foind the 4 seconds bit and changed it to simply 4. Now that short event filter works, just got to check the purge when full

Re: Rasbian help request
To any future person with this problem. I tripled the image buffer size to 150 and slightly increased the warm-up and pre-event image count to 35 and now the recordings are much better though still stutter a little on alarm trigger. Problem now is that the live view is stuttering but I see it as a g...

Re: Rasbian help request
I don't run it from the desktop, just the command line interface. How would I increase /dev/shm memory? Literally the only thing in the pi is stock raspbian and zoneminder. I have increased the image buffer values in monitor settings, hopefully it helps!

Re: Rasbian help request
I have a single 720 camera running at 15fps. The pi is running off a micro SD. The slow down only happens after the alarm is triggered. Looking at the loads on the pi I expect is the SD not writing fast enough (I think it's a class 10) will try hooking up an external drive and see how that goes. Is ...

Re: Rasbian help request
I think I will stick to Raspbian for now then. I do have a problem though that when an alarm is triggered the FPS falls like a rock and skips about the first 2 seconds after an alarm is triggered. Dont know if that is a PI problem, write speed on SD (though the pre alarm frames are smooth) or someth...

Re: Raspbian Zoneminder 1.29 API zmNinja Instructions

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/share/zoneminder/www/api
and restart zoneminder and apache. seems to be all sorted now

Rasbian help request
Hello, I have tried to get a fully functioning version of zoneminder running on my pi3b. After 4-5 installs from clean I keep coming up short as the API features that allow remote connection to things like zmNinja aren't working. Does someone have a fully working version they could provide a writabl...

Re: help with 1.30 on Raspbian
I have nothing in the fields for max fps or alarm max fps. I have messed around with the settings on the camera a little and got the delay down to about 10s which is ok for my situation. As for getting 1.30 I guess it will happen when/if it happens. Thanks

help with 1.30 on Raspbian
Hello, I followed the instruction on the wiki and got zoneminder up and running but its 1.29 I was wondering if 1.30 is available or coming as the onvif support was a key reason for me picking this setup. The camera I have hooked up now has a huge lag of 15-20 seconds and is running at half the fps ...
