Look at the specification sheet for cameras. Cameras that are rated for Outdoors use, will have higher temperature ranges. They will also be rain proof. I have had cameras fail in hot areas, and I have also had cameras work perfectly OK. But I've only had 2 fail. One was an early gen Axis, and the ...

Sorry, I didn't read closely enough. Reading the error again, it looks like a ZMES misconfiguration. Try the ZMES secrets.ini file. That has ZM_PORTAL, ZM_API_PORTAL, and ZMES_PICTURE_URL. On my system that file is in /etc/zm.

There is an explanation here: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/API#Troubleshooting

What you need to know is that the api is NOT at /usr/share/zoneminder/www/api but in fact is located at

/usr/share/zoneminder/www/api/app/webroot

Maybe the redirect rules in the web server config are broken?

I found this on the wiki: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian_11_Bullseye_with_Zoneminder_1.36.x#Debian_11_with_NGINX_and_Zoneminder_1.36.x Here's a revision link in case it changes: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/index.php?title=Debian_11_Bullseye_with_Zoneminder_1.36.x&oldid=16944 What distro and what ...

You didn't specify an action. You might expect a warning/error in ZM that if no action is selected it doesn't allow the filter to be saved... But that is not there, unfortunately. I have seen the filters page glitch where I had to save the filter a second time to get the action or option to be ...

I've added a screenshot with the proper syntax for zmc: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Filters#Logging_a_Filter_in_Debug Though you may want to keep LOG_FFMPEG enabled, which you have in your screenshot. I'm not sure where the FFMPEG logs output to. The debug target should be: _zmc_m### Where the ...

Enable debug logging on zmc for that monitor. Make sure that the GPU is actually running in ZM. What does it output? To enable the debug log: Go to options, logging. Check off Debug log. Choose the filters you want to watch divided by a vertical line (e.g. _zmc_2|_zmc_3). Choose a destination that ...

Contains is the proper syntax for the notes field for this SQL. Is that the french translation? Or do you have it set to equal? Equal may not work. I can't tell what the translation is without looking it up... Github is requiring me to sign in to search the code, so that's a fail. EDIT: Ah I found ...

I don't think the GPU is used to compress videos. It is used to offload some of the CPU to the GPU (and it is still in a preliminary state. There is more info here: https://wiki.zoneminder.com/GPU_passthrough_to_virtual_machines). If JPEG encoding is disabled, you should not be seeing JPEGs. Please ...

Please post the camera make/model and post your monitor settings.

You should install the stable release of Zoneminder which is 1.36. Stable will be even numbers (36,38,40). Do not install the development version (odd numbers) unless you know what you are doing.

I'm not familiar with this particular error. You could look at the database.

Refer to https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Filters#Troubleshooting there are some things you can try there.

Maybe post a screenshot of the filter that you are having trouble with.
