Hey all I'm new here
I've recently installed Zoneminder 1.28.1 on Centos 6.6 64 bit on a virtual machine and I'm getting this problem that seems to be filling up my hard drive with bogus events at an insanely fast rate.
This is an example of it (I uploaded to imgur but this forum won't let me link it properly) and it seems to happen every 2-5 seconds imgur(.)com/Fz5gx2r.jpg
The camera I'm using is a Hikvision DS-2CD2032-I and on it's own web interface this never happens.
Any help would be appreciated thank you.

Re: Recording Problems
Is your source type ffmpeg?

I no longer work on zmNinja, zmeventnotification, pyzm or mlapi. I may respond on occasion based on my available time/interest.

Re: Recording Problems
Try the native rtsp option or other strategies

Re: Recording Problems
Okay so I've tried every single other option and I just get blank screens with Remote and VLC, only setting that works is the ffmpeg and RTP/RTSP link. I have set the maximum frames to way higher than the camera can actually do and I think that has done the trick, I will test it out for about an hour and report back on any smudging events.
Edit: Yup increasing the fps seems to have done the trick, I set it to 40 fps while the camera is running at 3 mp 20 fps.

Re: Recording Problems
The Maximum FPS in the ZM Monitor setup is for local cameras. Value should be (blank) for everything else.

Re: Recording Problems
Actually, it should be set to a value higher than the FPS of your in-camera setting. If you don't and your camera goes offline, ZM eats up all the CPU.bbunge wrote:The Maximum FPS in the ZM Monitor setup is for local cameras. Value should be (blank) for everything else.
