Hai ,

Motion detection is not happening with plugin installed
Here is log file

sudheer - Your ZM installation is not loading the plugins correctly. This plugin framework introduced front-end fields for users to supply the name(s) of the vision plugin(s) that should get used with a given monitor. In your log:

Runtime error: Could not load '/usr/share/zm/libzm_plugin_face_haar.zmpl'zm_plugin_manager.cpp 77

I would advise you to check in the Monitor options and make sure the 'Used plugins' field has the correct file name(s) of the vision plugin(s) you want to apply to the monitor (by default i think the plugin file name ends with .so - for the plugins compiled via scons). Also check the PATHS tab in zoneminder as you also need to set the PATH to the plugins folder containing the .so files

When the .so file loads correctly, please post the log after that. I've tested face & upper body which do work. However I've found that you also need to play with the accuracy settings for each plugin via the provided plugins.conf. The more restrictive these settings are, the more accurate the face/upper body/etc detection will be, but it depends on environment

I've been doing some work on this vision plug-in architecture. Mostly what's been done here with a slight difference - I patched the changes introduced in the CVision Lab plug-in framework into ZM version (1.28.1). I've been using this version of ZM as it seems more up-to-date. I've also managed to get OpenCV linked against ZM and correctly detecting faces and upper bodies (with a lot of false positives, but it works. I'm using still images with a lot of noise (trees, light/shade, etc). Playing with the cascade classifier settings found in plugins.conf helps reduce some of the false positives. Also I am working on an Nvidia Jetson TK1, primarily looking to add GPU usage for classification algorithms. I am at the point where GPU correctly detected by ZM/OpenCV, and now its just a matter of preparing the cv::gpu::Mat data structure required to load the ZM images into GPU for detection using OpenCV's CascadeClassifier_GPU - http://docs.opencv.org/2.4/modules/gpu/ ... sifier-gpu. Will post more when I have things running on GPU
