Re: Start/Stop button script?

Instead of stopping ZM fully you can control monitors individually so the rest can continue to do their jobs. You can execute this from php: curl -XPOST http://<IP>/zm/api/monitors/<monitor>.json -d "Monitor[Function]=Modect&Monitor[Enabled]=1" This turns monitor funcion on for the sel...

Re: ZoneMinder and Kodi?

I still use Kodi 18 and ZM 1.34 and the following have been working for me for years: .m3u playlists, so I can group my cameras. Create a folder, put playlist files into that and add the folder to Kodi as Video Source. Sample .m3u file: #EXTCPlayListM3U::M3U #EXTINF:0,camera name 1 http://192.168.1....

Re: Kindly guide any way to schedule recording for a particular camera

when using many cameras there can be a better way to control cameras individually instead of creating many states. curl -XPOST http://localhost/zm/api/monitors/22.json -d "Monitor[Function]=Mocord&Monitor[Enabled]=1" where 22 is the camera id put this command to cron as it was descibed...

Re: View Multiple ZM Installs from One Location

ZM can stream cameras over http(s) like http://<onsite ip>/zm/cgi-bin/nph-zms?monitor=1 or https://<ddns ip>/zm/cgi-bin/nph-zms?monitor=1 You can put all cams into a single local html/php table, like 3x2. servers limit concurrent sessions (6) but override is possible for some browsers (like firefox)...

If there was a button for that before it is gone now.

I'll take a look at adding it back.
That would be wonderful. Lack of that button is the only reason I can't upgrade from 1.34.26. I use it every day.

Re: filter not working

yeah, right. and if everything worked as it should no post would be seen here :)
based on what you said about your system you're not just testing it. 1.36 has tons of bugs, so I think 1.34 should still be used in production environment.

Re: filter not working

have you tried to run zmaudit.pl as root from consolel?
I got this endless Loading... because my event database was corrupt or damaged somehow. After zmaudit everything worked.

Re: Generate Video from Event

I asked the same and got the same. I use this feature daily so I just restored my 1.34.26 vm.
Much nicer GUI too.

Re: How to view cameras

I have no idea about how many people use ZM and since when, but it is on the market for very long years, developers and community is very active, so I think no one can possibly think ZM is limited in any way - at least after a couple of hours of studying it. I've been using it for 5 years, have it i...

Re: How to view cameras

" A picture is worth a thousand words " :-) Check out system load: 8.19 seems very high. Probably you simply don't have enough compute power. Check out reported frame rate: assuming you have similarly set cameras FPS should be nearly identical, but you got them between 15-60. Again, CPU se...

Re: no video export?

yes, I found it before, but it appears only in event list view, not for a single event I want to convert, whats's more it doesn't even work on list view, just creates an empty zip file, so does 1.34.

no video export?

Hi,

just upgraded from 1.34.23 on a test vm and found no option to export video.
Isn't it implemented yet or I missed something in the settings?

Thanks!

Re: Execute command on all matches

ERR [Command 'wall -n hello /var/lib/zoneminder/events/5/2020-04-12/20276' exited with status: 1]

What is the best platform for Zoneminder now?
1.29 on Centos6 worked fine for 3 years, then I replaced server and just wanted to install recent OS and ZM.

Thanks.

Execute command on all matches

Hi!

CentOS 8, ZM 1.34.9

filters are working fine except the above.
In logs I get exited with status: 1 no matter if I try a script or a simple command, like wall -n hello

Is it a bug or I missed something?

Thanks!
