Re: Anyone running 16 cameras on a server?

I'm running about 12 cams. I had a custom page that displayed the cameras down one side and some server monitoring stuff in a frame on the right, but after updating Firefox last night the whole thing stopped working! So if I get it running again I'll post back, but this is insanely frustrating. The ...

Re: Windows 7 Sidebar Gadget ZM Viewer

As I noted on my blog post and in post 4 here, development and support on this has ceased. It doesn't work properly due to massive mysql connections and difficulty streaming in IE. I just use FireFox now for viewing and mode=jpeg; works fine with 1.24.4 and FF6. Sorry I can't be of more help...it wa...

Re: I broke my Zoneminder...mmap errors

I fixed it! Another thread mentioned removing libavdevice, so I tried apt-get remove libavdevice52, which of course it couldn't find (since I'm poking around in the dark here), but then it helpfully said the following packages are no longer required: libopenal1 libsdl1.2debian libsdl1.2debian-alsa l...

[SOLVED] I broke my Zoneminder...mmap errors

Help...I had 1.24.4 running beautifully on a Core 2 Duo machine. Took a week to get it working just so. Then today I was screwing around trying to install a command-line mp3 player on my headless system, tried a few that I shouldn't have (uninstalled them), and now ZM is completely broken. zmc won't...

I think my lag was constant. But it was so bad I didn't stay to watch. What you are describing was mentioned by another poster in another thread - I asked if it was resolved and did not hear back, unfortunately. If you can live with a 12 second delay (constant or not) you're a better person than me....

Try leaving the capture fps blank or set it very high (10fps or higher). I discovered on my new 1.24 installation that when the fps is low (my typical value was 3fps on 1.23 to keep CPU load down) there was a terrible lag in the video. 3fps lagged by 12 seconds, 5fps something like 8 seconds. Not su...

Ubuntu logging

I'm placing this here so that others may find it with a search. I read that as of Ubuntu 9.10, sysklogd has been replaced with rsyslog. The configuration file for the local1 facility edits changed from /etc/syslog.conf to /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf. Make the edits outlined in the Wiki as needed ...

Confirming now that the delay is directly proportional to the frame rate in ZM. If I choose 5fps, my image is delayed 8 seconds. 3fps, I'm delayed 12 seconds. 30fps, delay near zero. I wonder if something changed with respect to the way ZM 1.24 is handing buffers (i.e., it calculates something by fr...

Yamanipanuchi, Did you ever solve this? I just upgraded (?) to 1.24.2 and I'm having the same problem. The buffer settings, as far as I can tell, are the same from my 1.23 installation which only had a 1-2 second delay. With 1.24.2 this is much much worse - as you said, 10-20 seconds after the event...

Logray, I bypass basic auth by editing .htaccess and including an "allow from nn.nn.nn.nn" where that is my IP address. I am willing to accept the very slight risk that my ISP will give away the "dynamic" IP address I've had for the last 3 years and someone who gets that address ...

I'm sort of tabling this for now. It works, but because Windows will only view sidebar gadgets using the IE rendering engine (instead of, say, Firefox), you can't use mode=stream, you have to use mode=jpeg. This is OK but it leads to a *tremendous* number of mysql connections on the ZM server and I'...
