For starters, turn off the frame server under options. The frame server ends up causing more problems than it attempts to solve. It has been removed from the latest master branch, and won't be part of the next release of ZoneMinder. I just modified that setting on my setup. I'll monitor over the ne...

How do you have the camera configured? Which Linux distro and version? The camera is throttled at 6fps and 720p on my setup. I have 5 zones with varying amounts of blob detection in each zone. I'm using RTP/RTSP with the hardcoded IP of the camera using the standard port 554. I'm not sure what kind...

So I'm running ZM 1.30.4 and it looks like I'm getting a lot of this kind of stuff: Date/Time Component Server PID Level Message File Line 11/4/17 11:14 AM zmf 12781 WAR Socket closed at remote end zmf.cpp 312 11/4/17 11:14 AM zmf 12781 ERR Only read 219224 bytes of 979149 zmf.cpp 305 11/4/17 11:14 ...

Yeah, it seems like there's an issue with zoneminder after an alarm triggers. My camera is fine at 10fps in idle mode, but as soon as an alarm triggers the frame rate drops to 2-3 FPS. Here's an example that just triggered this morning: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/14826228/ZoneMinder/Event-1...

FYI, I just upgraded to 1.30 and the problem persists.

Hi, I've used ZM for a long time and I've always had an issue with this but I have never figured it out. When a recording is triggered the first few frames ~20-30 are at an acceptable frame rate (and motion is smooth), after that the frame rate drops to a much lower value and you can see this as the...

I've noticed something weird about the system, when an alarm triggers and the system starts to build a recording the first section of the recording is good and smooth for approximately 3-4 seconds the frame rate appears to be a good 10 fps. After about 4 seconds, there's a short freeze, then the vid...

OMG, I found it: /usr/local/share/perl/5.18.2/ZoneMinder/Base.pm . presumably left over from source installation: $ sudo find /usr -name Base.pm |grep Zone /usr/share/perl5/ZoneMinder/Base.pm /usr/src/junk/scripts/ZoneMinder/lib/ZoneMinder/Base.pm /usr/local/share/perl/5.18.2/ZoneMinder/Base.pm $ Am...

More detail: I just figured out that my ZM_VERSION is wrong. When I issue zmpkg.pl version it spits out 1.28! $ sudo /usr/bin/zmpkg.pl version 1.28.0 $ so I look at the code and the print statement is: print ZoneMinder::Base::ZM_VERSION . "\n"; So where does this ZoneMinder::Base::ZM_VERSI...

Okay, I tried this again today, check out the sequence (previously manually clearing out all files I could find and dropping the zm DB): $ sudo apt-get install zoneminder Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Suggested packages: fcgiwrap The followi...

It sounds like your using the web console php code for v1.28 and not v1.29. Check the paths that Apache (or your web server) and ZoneMinder are configured for. I had some mismatch problems when first upgrading from a package manager installed ZM and then to go to 1.30.rc1 I built it from source. Ev...

bump, still no dice on this.

Your best bet would be to dump your current database and start with a fresh one. Yes, you could run each .sql which is what the zmupdate does but you could still have issues. You may be farther ahead to install Ubuntu 16.04 server with ZM 1.29.0 bb So I tried dumping the DB and then using the instr...

Hi, Another tip: install phpmyadmin and execute the sql inside the latest update file from phpmyadmin. I did it in a previous version with the same problem as you, it worked. Hope it helps, PacoLM Hi PacoLM, thanks for the information. Are you suggesting that I execute the sql within: /usr/share/zo...
