Re: Zoneminder 1.30.4 on Debian 9 (testing)

I really don't want to add deb-multimedia to my sources. I have a clean Deb 9 install running Zoneminder 1.30.0 and Deb 9 will be release in a couple of weeks (https://www.debian.org/releases/). Adding it gave me all these changes and I don't want to destablize my system: The following packages were...

1.30.4 on Debian

I have 1.30.0 installed on Debian 9 as per https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian_9_64 ... e_Easy_Way

Is this the best way to go to 1.30.4?

Image Enhancement

Our neighboorhood mailbox cluster was broken into last week and I got some footage with ZM (Thanks all!). I have tried with Registax and Photoshop CS5 to pull out the plate number. I have about 100 images of the perp that look like the attached. Any suggestions for a recipe to stack these and get th...

Confirmed. I looked through the changes but could not really find anything that accounts for the better performance but they are working hard!

Re: Ffmpeg and smearing issues

Update: my cameras have been clear since my last post. I am running one of my low feeds also in remote but I have not seen any smearing on any feed. <fingers crossed> Update 2: Of course, as soon as I post I had an issue. I swapped the network cable from my server from a switch to the router. One of...

Re: Does ZM 1.30.x use hardware acceleration?

What happens for you if you put "-hwaccel auto" before your input (-i) ?

Re: Ffmpeg and smearing issues

Between us, I'm pretty sure restarting the camera has fixed it, restarted zoneminder has fixed it, restarting the switch has fixed it, and even changing from modect to none (or monitor) and back has fixed it. Yet other times, some of those don't fix it. Not sure what that means... scratching head. ...

Re: Ffmpeg and smearing issues

This morning I discovered one of the cameras in "smear". I cycled the function and it did not clear. I took both monitors to "none" and then back to "modect" and it did clear. Just another data point...

Re: Ffmpeg and smearing issues

On Monday I did play with the profiles but it didn't do anything. See earlier post. I had smearing today when I restarted ZM. It would not clear until I powered off my POE switch... I also boosted wmem, rmem, and optmem_max all to 512k. No effect. What are your source tab settings for "remote&q...

Are we not chasing this old problem?

I have been able to completely reinvent the wheel! Is figuring all of this out independently part of the Zoneminder club secret handshake? :roll: :wink:

Re: Ffmpeg and smearing issues

I had a "smear storm" today on both my low feeds. I was able to clear it by switching each monitor from function "modect" to "none" and back again. Restarting Zoneminder would not clear it. I could not boot my cameras remotely from work. I noticed using "htop"...
