Re: Problems with multiple high resolution cameras

I just got mine up to 3072x2048, no errors. Thanks for the tip.

The HikVision cameras default to 8 Mega pixels. I have played around a bit and now have them working fine, all on 3072x1728 (5.3 MP)

I will do that. Can you tell me how to reach the IRC forums?

Re: 4K resolution doesn't work. Other resolutions work fine.

Set your resolution to 640x480 and Zoneminder will work much better. This is a security camera system and not a HD video recorder! I have 4 other cameras that work fine at lower resolutions than 8MP/4k. This works fine at 2560x1440 too... so thanks. But my question is whether I can make Zoneminder ...

Re: Problems with multiple high resolution cameras

Rob, I may have a similar problem. Do you mind sharing the model and configuration you have for your cameras? I have 2 x 1.3mp Amcrest Cameras, 1 x 3MP Amcrest Dome, 1x 2MP Hikvision Doorbell, 1 new 4K (8MP) Amcrest. I am using FFMPEG on all of them. What is your setup for your 8MP camera? and which...

Re: 4K resolution doesn't work. Other resolutions work fine.

The tmpfs or /dev/shm is pretty low. See the 2 images below. Both have all 5 cams on. One has the 4k set at 1440p and the other at 2160p. Change is minor and still low. I think the problem is something else. Can the problem be diagnosed through the logs I attached? BTW: I even tried to disable all o...

Re: 4K resolution doesn't work. Other resolutions work fine.

Is that a fix though? Can you tell what is being overloaded? Zoneminder says its supports 4K, so I assumed that means without reducing the resolution. My other cameras are 720p, so I do not know how I can lower these and keep 2160p on the new 4K camera. I would like to get it working without reducin...

4K resolution doesn't work. Other resolutions work fine.

Hello. I am using Zoneminder 1.30.4. I have 5 cameras. 4 Amcrest and 1 Hikvision doorbell. My newest Amcrest (IP8M-2496EB) supports 4K resolution. 4K solution results in the attached error. When I set the zoneminder monitor (monitor 7) to a resolution of 2560*1440 everything works fine. When I set i...
