ZoneMinder Forums

Hello ,
I made a fresh zonminder installation on my PI3
connected a simple usb camera and an IP camera .
I have 2 problems:
1. I lose signal to both camera , when I check zonminder onc a day to see events
I see that he say the cameras are offline , not recording events (the source is in red)
after I reboot the pi , is start to work for a few hours then - the same problem.
2. when he record the event is doesn;t record good , the image get stuck , and I can see that he "jump" 2-3 seconds
so in a 10 seconds record (this is waht he say I have ) - Ican only see 4 images

*** the IP camera is not off line , and no body is touching the USB (they are allways connected)
when I open the log I see

WAR buffer overrun at index x , image xxx ,slow down capture ,speed up analysis or increasing ring buffer size

I used this cameras for half a year without any problem with the same PI
what could be the reason ?
I don;t rememer did any special setting

maybe something is f@!k with the SD card?

Thanks,

Your best bet with the pi3 is to use Buster lite, no desktop, and ZM 1.33 or 1.34 when the new release is available for Debian.

I will try

the strange thing is that it work very good util it update to 1.34 , them all my problems start.

I will take a new SD and try again
