Re: Questions about Zoneminder

Is there away to set a schedule for PTZ and to stop the monitoring software from recording on scheduled movement.

Re: Arduino USB serial

I use a GPIO USB board ( numato ) to read a PIR motion detection through Guardline Security devices . These are quite reliable, very long life etc and seem to work well over as much as 200 feet. They have models which work up to a mile. I run a simple shell script to detect the PIR shunt (ie read th...

Issue #3300

Was closed some time ago, but did not make it into latest 1.36.5 update. I just upgraded 1.36.4 to 1.36.5 and it put back the unchanged script.

1.36.4 ???

My OS software updater is showing an update to 1.36.4, but there seems to be no announcement here in the forum.

What's going on? Is this intentional?

I have setup 4 different servers on various versions of ZM and various versions of Ubuntu and lotsa different Amcrest cameras and this has worked on all of them. Can you ping t...

Re: Trouble with all my cameras with 1.36.4 from 1.32

I have a bunch of Amcrest, can't speak from experience about the others. All my Amcrest are working nicely (with some PTZ issues, but that's unrelated here). My "source" lines in my Amcrest monitors all look like: rtsp://login:password@cameraIP:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0 P...

Re: Unstable Zoneminder

I think you have a configuration problem. I have very similar CPU supporting 8 cameras, and the CPU utilization is staying well below 25%. I have another system hosting 6 camera, I3 CPU, and its running around 50% CPU. Try cranking the camera FPS down - do this in the camera itself, not in ZM - and ...
