Is there a way to burn in the time and date to a downloaded video?
I am running v1.36.12
Many Thanks

The easiest method to add timestamps on your video streams is to enable the TIMESTAMP_ON_CAPTURE option in the Config Menu. Another method to add timestamps to your video streams is to enable an overlay in your camera's fimrware if available. I am not aware of any current features of ZoneMinder that will add timestamps to an existing video file if that is your need. Possibly you could add timestamps to an existing video file using the ffmpeg utility but that is something that I have not done personally.
