It is both possible to do it, and possible to avoid doing it.

The former could be accomplished by the options button, then the users tab on the right. The latter could be accomplished by not going to the options button and the users tab on the right, or in any number of other ways.

That'd be pretty sweet, actually. Perhaps the list would be on the wiki, and your daemon could pull from it?

Ditto on the kudos, can't wait to see if I can tweak it to do US plates.

This may seem like an odd suggestion, but you might want to check paypal.com for that information.

Deep storage also increases the speed of deletes, eliminates possible file limit problems down the road, and probably a few other things that are handy.

I was very sad when I saw this in the "Feature Request" instead of "User Contribution" forum. OpenCV might be the ticket, but I haven't seen many functioning (at least open source) uses of it. I've played with it a bit, and it's not an easy beast, though person detection's probab...

I'm rather happy with my ACTi ACM-1311N (replaced i'm told by the 1011N). Looks to be about half the price of the Axis 221. My 1311N has an analog out, can't tell from curt's page whether or not the replacement 1011N does or not. Mine's located in (well, it was last week, they're changing the lighti...

Meanwhile, my regex is too rusty to argue with the other lines, but you'll want to change line 3 to

Code: Select all

$df = shell_exec( 'df --total /usr/share/zoneminder/events/1 /usr/share/zoneminder/events/2 /usr/share/zoneminder/events/3 /usr/share/zoneminder/events/4' );
It's a start.

LVM is a method of pooling the disks to appear as 1. If you could reformat/arrange the volumes into an LVM then your 4 1 terabyte raids would show up as one big 16 terabyte disk. Warning: LVM is not for the faint of heart, or for the boot partition. Google LVM2 in your native language and see if it'...

Adding presets

If you're vaguely decent with SQL or have a database client to connect to MySQL that you're comfortable with, there's a table "MonitorPresets" that appears to contain the presets. I can't imagine why Phil would have hardcoded a limit to the amount that can be there, so you should be able t...

While you're at it, are UK and US plates different enough (hell, ours change by state or what baseball team you like) that it'll only work on UK plates?

That'd be a great mod if it works, especially since I just installed cameras on all of our garage doors.

Is there a good reason to have them all on separate disks? Have you considered LVM? It's great for attaching sets of disks, and when you decide to add more later it's just a few simple commands.
