There is no need to create the /zoneminder/events folder. In fact, the paths don't look like that at all in custom storage (with default settings). See what one of my folders (/videos/One_10tb/) looks like: /videos/ ├── One_10tb │   ├── 10 │   │   ├── 2020-11-13 │   │   │   ├── 4263714 │   │   │   │...

I checked but the user manual doesn't detail the path... You can view the feed from the cameras webpage right? Usually if you right click the feed to view in a new window it's /mjpg/video.mjpg. What if you right click and open the 2nd feed in a new tab? Also sometimes it will announce a path when it...

Typically malformed images like this are due to the source settings being wrong in ZM. Probably wrong resolution.

Post camera settings, ZM source settings, and then try the video in ffmpeg or vlc. What do those output for video resolution and details?

Also, there is an issue with the DB creation on buster / devuan. It looks like whatever dpkg is doing in zoneminder.postinst is failing. What happens is that the numbers don't show in the web console for day,week,month, etc for a monitor. They do show totals. When I try to run the zm_create.sql I ge...

On debian 10 / devuan 3, in 1.35.20~20210309.53-buster I see the following error for libvncclient shared libraries: 03/12/21 21:57:43.790746 zmc_m2[8088].ERR-zm_libvnc_camera.cpp/26 [Error loading libvncclient: libvncclient.so: cannot open shared object file: No such> 03/12/21 21:57:43.790953 zmc_m2...

Does the camera work in ffmpeg or vlc?

... generic VPS, but you have to spec accordingly. .... AKA "not cheap" :D I'm not sure... I haven't done any rough calculations, but It's going to depend upon bandwidth. There are VPS providers with block storage slabs, where you can get 1TB for $5 a month along with a $4 a month VPS. So...

IMHO your going to need hosting that is dedicated to IP cam security. regular web hosting isnt going to cut it. a VPS ( virtual private server ) may work but it isnt going to be cheap. There's no reason you can't use a generic VPS, but you have to spec accordingly. You'll need a VPN, and a big enou...

Are you typing the correct password? Did you install correctly? Please post verbose logs. Follow the guides on https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Debian if you didn't use those to install. You can change the password after you disable auth. This is covered in the zm wiki. Then re-enable auth, and it should...

Sounds like a faulty installation. Please post more details of install. Steps you took, and distribution used. Anything in logs?

I just did my backup and restore and have an error: ERROR 1840 (HY000) at line 24: @@GLOBAL.GTID_PURGED can only be set when @@GLOBAL.GTID_EXECUTED is empty. Not a common ZM issue, but a quick web search online comes up with a few things you can try. I think most of them involve removing the GLOBAL...

there is some limit on the camera for the number of "admin" users that can connect to the camera as I had an iSPY session, a web browser session and zoneminder trying to hit it at the same time. In the logs it was barking about the password. Some cameras have this limitation, but not typi...

In 1.35 installed roughly 2/25* for Buster / Devuan Beowulf Master. Install was without issue - thanks for sysvinit/Beowulf support. I tested VNC and Website types. I was not able to get either to work. Looking at the logs, it looks like functionality is still WIP, as it faults looking at the DB. I ...

I am having issues getting this PTZ 1080p camera setup in ZM 1.34. I have it working in iSPY and I am trying to use the same connection string like i do with my Amcrest camersa FFMPEG/RTSP. Do the Axis camers use something different? It seems that the axis camera may want you to build the different...
