ZoneMinder Forums

I think most of the issues we are experiencing with zoneminder are caused by underlying software such as ffmpeg. I too had this smear issue. Since I upgraded to ffmpeg 1.2, I no longer have this smear issue but zoneminder stopped working.. Try ffmpeg 1.2. Later tonight, I will post my comfigure comm...

OK I went ahead and got tempted by others on this forum when they talked about 1.26.4 from the Github page... So far: Everything feels more "fluid", but I am stuck with a massive problem: Upon starting the main daemon (zmpkg.pl start), I first got dozens of false alarms (like one every 2 s...

When I set the source color depth to 32 bit, I immediately get :

"libjpeg-turbo is required for JPEG encoding directly from RGB32 source"

in the logs... So I am sure that its not using libjpeg-turbo... If I only could make it work

Some more findings after a day fiddling with ZM: 1. On slackware64-14.0, ZM doesnt detect libjpeg-turbo.. period. I recompiled it manually (ver. 1.2.0), to no avail. when I select 32bit color in the source's config page, I get no real time playback, and I get "libjpeg-turbo is required for JPEG...

After I upgraded ffmpeg from the obsolete 0.11.1 on slackware64-14.0 to ffmpeg 1.2, I eliminated the smearing problem which was also creating false events. ffmpeg: ffmpeg version 1.2 Copyright (c) 2000-2013 the FFmpeg developers built on Oct 6 2013 22:57:37 with gcc 4.7.1 (GCC) configuration: --pref...

I just went to my fresh install of ZM by clicking on the "v1.26.3" version number at the top of the main page and I got: "You are running the most recent version of ZoneMinder, v1.26.3. No update is necessary." SO I wonder how you guys got a notification that a new version was av...

"My guess is that the frameserver isn't keeping up, possibly due to insufficient hardware resources " Possible, but why would that be? I have a dual Opteron 6 Cores (total 12 cores) at 3.4GHz with 64GB RAM DDR3 1600, caching and temp folders for ZM are on a fast SSD... Right now, the frame...

OK I figured out the libjpeg-turbo issue... Had to recompile ZM from scratch and reinstall it.. Strange though because if I am not mistaken, libjpeg-turbo is part of a full slackware install. Anyways, it was installed prior to installing ZM for the first time so it should have detected it. The socke...

I wonder if I should open new bug reports on the Github page... I have managed to install and make it run but Im having severe issues (still). In monitor mode, the logs are crippled with errors such as: 2013-10-05 14:33:01.627221 web_php 20219 ERR socket_sendto( /var/run/zm/zms-582107s.sock ) failed...

[quote="knnniggett"]Out of all the badness in your logs, this is a good sign: [code]2013-10-04 17:53:43.275972 zmc_m1 17632 INF Monitor-1: 2000 - Capturing at 29.41 fps zm_monitor.cpp 2766[/code] It means your camera is likely recording fine. Although I recommend you crank down the fps. 5 ...

FYI, Ive ended up trying the latest release (1.26.3) which built and installed just fine! but cant get it running...

See http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewto ... 30&t=21479 for my new thread

Thanks!!

Thanks to everyone who contributed to this great project, I could finally get ZM to run on my slackware64-14 server with version 1.26.3. I however have serious issues to get it going. After a successful compilation and installation with [code]./configure --with-ffmpeg=/usr/bin/ --with-webdir=/var/ww...

Its not working, or alt least I failed to modify the source properly... I still get the same output. TO be honest, there are a few places in his procedure where I didnt know what to do. For example, he was sometimes getting errors that I wasnt. So should I modify the code like he's suggesting or not...

I will be trying that today. Obviously, if this works well, it should be pushed to the ZM devs so they can perhaps release 1.25.X or 1.26?..

knnniieggt I have applied the patch as you provided and it seems to have patched fine. ./configure goes well and finishes without errors but make throws a lot of errors: [code]g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I/usr/include -I/usr/include -Wall -Wno-sign-compare -I/usr/include -g -O2 -MT zm_file_camera....
