figured it out... If I put it at 320x240..it works fine.

If I access my camera at http://192.168.1.30:90/VIDEO.CGI it works fine.. I have the A2 version, 2.51 firmware. In ZM, I have it set as: remote host name: 192.168.1.30 (using username:password@IP is incorrect and doesnt work) remote host port: 90 remote host path: VIDEO.CGI 640x480 video pixels I ju...

any clue as to why it goes red???? How do we roll back (thats what I want to do)?

Reinstall the good version?

One thing I'm noticing is that when I go to a Timeline view and there is an event, if I mouse-over it, the preview is RED but an event with no alarm previews fine.

Had I spent more time with the SEARCH feature, I would have found my answer. LOL. You have to bind-mount it.. http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Using_a_dedicated_Hard_Drive my original setup in fstab with cruft removed: /dev/sdb2 /media/storage ext4 defaults I added: /media/storage/zm/events ...

you mean chown.

No, I dont have that www-data user for one, second, its 777 which means anyone can rwx.

I have a 250GB drive mounted on /media/storage. I have this running on CentOS 6.3. Created the following dirs: /media/storage/zm/events /media/storage/zm/images in /var/www/html/zm I did: ln -s /media/storage/zm/events events ln -s /media/storage/zm/images images Its looks like this: 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 ...

Yea you're right. There are much better non-wifi cameras, but I guess cheap and good isnt an option.

Currently I have a server running CentOS 6.3, ZM 1.25 and a DCS-932L camera via wifi. Works fine. I tried the Foscam FI8905W and they are the slowest pieces of junk, losing connectivity. I like the look of a bullet type cam (or the FI8905) because it stands out and blatantly obvious that you're reco...

I appreciate you taking the time to reply about this.

On the make one recording there is a solution in the forum using ffmpeg but it didn't appeal to me at all (search). On the sun changes triggering events: play with "Overload Frame Ignore Count" on the zone settings (home page, click on zone then click on zone name) and the "Reference...

tried it. I'll report back after I check out the results.

I havent fine tuned my setup yet, so I get a TON of recordings.. ie. the sun gets brighter, sets off alarm, creates video. LOL. Havent figured that one out. So, is there a way to combine all videos into 1 huge video so I can fast forward thru it and then delete it all when done?

on my server my events and images are stored in /srv/www/htdocs/zm/events and /srv/www/htdocs/zm/images. I did the ln -s /usr/zm/events, ln -s /usr/zm/images... even a chmod on /usr/zm/events and images. For some reason, I get nothing. When an event records, I click on frames and no picture shows up...

This is what I followed and I got it working..
