Environment:
Ubuntu 18.4
Cams: Microseven/onvif
I have a new install of zoneminder. Two onvif cameras work fine but my microseven cameras/monitors turn into a mosaic pic after they run for a short time. Changing a setting and saving straightens things out for a while but eventually, the monitor becomes mosaic again.
ideas??

viewtopic.php?f=36&t=26429&p=101881&hil ... ng#p101881
As a real life example
I had to setup this camera with UDP to stop drop outs.

Off cuff: adjust I frames, or switch between tcp/udp is a quick thing to try.
Post details of camera and ZM settings.

fastest way to test streams:
ffmpeg -i rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path ./output.mp4 (if terminal only)
ffplay rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path (gui)
find paths on ispydb or in zm hcl

Re: [Solved]Monitor becomes mosaic
Yes, changing to UDP corrected the issue. Not sure why that had to be changed since it worked fine for some time but happy to have things working again.
Thank you!
Thank you!
