Thanks to in 1.33 . Once I figured out I had to change the setting and restart/reboot, that did in fact fix my force alarm problem. My setting is now plain. Not sure what this means for security, but I do need force alarm to work. I am a little confused as the setting on my old version ( v1.30.4 ) i...

my previous version v1.30.4 is still running. using a camera set in Modetect - force alarm works fine in v1.30.4 , but nothing happens in 1.34. I don't see anything in the log that looks related. I have copied over each camera's setting by hand. Based on your post I checked that /usr/bin/zmtrigger.p...

What has to be configured for force alarm to work? I tried it on a camera that was in monitor only, but ok maybe that is not allowed. I tried logged in as admin on a modetect camera and nothing happens. This is a fresh install and I don't remember doing anything in previous versions to make it work....

I tried your suggested ln -s /usr/lib64/libcurl.so.4 /usr/lib64/libcurl.so just for kicks, but it did the same thing. I will try 1.34. No reason for me to be bleeding edge here.

Thanks bbunge you nudged me in the right direction.

It works now using the admin user and base64 password for admin. The test user does not work, but that's ok - I just made it because I was having problems.

Oh wait - I found

Source Type: cURL (HTTP(S) only)

learnt something new!

I have never used ffmpeg. Where does the user/pass go?

I am afraid I am going to run out of memory, but that is a different issue. Not there yet .. at least I don;t think so .. based on the log errors.

Thank you! I was about to ask for help when I looked in the code. And there was all the help I needed. I've never made a new control type. I appreciate you sharing.

Does it play nice with vlc ?

I am looking at an AXIS M1004-W camera. Will it work with a standard tripod? The pictures sure look like it will!

Thanks

The FAQ suggest using these tools FFMPEG/mplayer/xawtv First and most importantly TRY accessing the camera stream using FFMPEG/mplayer/xawtv and make sure you can access the video stream that way, as frequently if it won't work there its easier to troubleshoot it with those applications than with ZM...
