|
<p class=MsoPlainText>Welcome to ZoneMinder, the all-in-one Linux GPL'd
|
|
|
|
|
|
security camera solution.</p>
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2004-04-22 06:38:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>A while back my garage was burgled and all my power tools
|
|
|
|
|
|
were stolen! I realised shortly after that if I'd just had a camera overlooking
|
|
|
|
|
|
the door then at least I'd have know exactly when and who did the dirty deed.
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
And so ZoneMinder was born. It's still relatively new but hopefully it has
|
|
|
|
|
|
developed to be something that can be genuinely useful and prevent similar
|
|
|
|
|
|
incidents or even perhaps bring some perpetrators to justice.</p>
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>ZoneMinder is designed around a series of independent
|
|
|
|
|
|
components that only function when necessary limiting any wasted resource and
|
2004-02-06 05:57:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
maximising the efficiency of your machine. A fairly ancient Pentium II PC
|
|
|
|
|
|
should be able to track one camera per device at up to 25 frames per second
|
|
|
|
|
|
with this dropping by half approximately for each additional camera on the same
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
device. Additional cameras on other devices do not interact so can maintain
|
2004-02-06 05:57:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
this frame rate. Even monitoring several cameras still will not overload the
|
|
|
|
|
|
CPU as frame processing is designed to synchronise with capture and not stall
|
|
|
|
|
|
it.</p>
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>As well as being fast ZoneMinder is designed to be
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
friendly and even more than that, actually useful. As well as the fast video
|
|
|
|
|
|
interface core it also comes with a user friendly and comprehensive PHP based
|
|
|
|
|
|
web interface allowing you to control and monitor your cameras from home or
|
|
|
|
|
|
even at work or on the road. It supports variable web capabilities based on
|
|
|
|
|
|
available bandwidth. The web interface also allows you to view events that your
|
|
|
|
|
|
cameras have captured and archive them or review them time and again, or delete
|
|
|
|
|
|
the ones you no longer wish to keep. The web pages directly interact with the
|
|
|
|
|
|
core daemons ensuring full co-operation at all times. ZoneMinder can even be
|
2004-05-06 06:17:07 +08:00
|
|
|
|
installed as a system service ensuring it is right there if your computer has
|
|
|
|
|
|
to reboot for any reason.</p>
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>The core of ZoneMinder is the capture and analysis of
|
2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
images and there is a highly configurable set of parameters that allow you to
|
|
|
|
|
|
ensure that you can eliminate false positives whilst ensuring that anything you
|
|
|
|
|
|
don't want to miss will be captured and saved. ZoneMinder allows you to define
|
|
|
|
|
|
a set of 'zones' for each camera of varying sensitivity and functionality. This
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
allows you to eliminate regions that you don't wish to track or define areas
|
|
|
|
|
|
that will alarm if various thresholds are exceeded in conjunction with other
|
|
|
|
|
|
zones.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>ZoneMinder is fresh off the keyboard and so comes with no
|
|
|
|
|
|
warranty whatsoever, please try it, send your feedback and if you get anything
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
useful out of it let me know.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>ZoneMinder needs a couple of things to work.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>Firstly, it uses MySQL so you'll need that. In order to
|
|
|
|
|
|
compile you need to make sure you have a development installation and not just
|
2004-02-20 22:46:40 +08:00
|
|
|
|
a runtime; this is because it needs to use the MySQL header files. If you are
|
2003-12-14 00:09:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
running an RPM based distribution then it<69>s probably worth installing all the
|
|
|
|
|
|
pure mysql rpm files to be sure you have the right ones.</p>
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>Next it does things with JPEGs so you'll need at least
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
libjpeg.a which I think come as standard nowadays with most distributions. Users
|
|
|
|
|
|
have reported varying degrees of success with other jpeg libraries such as
|
|
|
|
|
|
jpeg-mmx but these are not officially supported. It also uses the netpbm
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
utilities in a very limited way to generate thumbnails under certain circumstances
|
|
|
|
|
|
though this can be modified.</p>
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>ZoneMinder can generate MPEG videos if necessary, for
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
this you'll need either ffmpeg (recommended) or the Berkeley MPEG encoder
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
(mpeg_encode). If you don't have either, don't worry, as the options will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
hidden and you'll not really miss too much. Some of the authentication uses
|
|
|
|
|
|
openssl MD5 functions, if you get a grumble about these during configuration
|
|
|
|
|
|
all it will mean is that authentication won<6F>t be used for streaming. The web
|
|
|
|
|
|
interface uses PHP and so you need that in your apache or other web server as
|
|
|
|
|
|
well, make sure MySQL support is available either statically or as a module.
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are also various perl modules that you may need that vary depending on
|
|
|
|
|
|
which options you choose on installation, for more details see later in this
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
document.</p>
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>Finally, there is quite a bit of image streaming in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
package. So if you don't have Netscape or another browser that supports image
|
|
|
|
|
|
streaming natively I recommend you get the excellent Cambozola java applet from
|
2004-02-06 05:57:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
<span class=MsoHyperlink>http://www.charliemouse.com/code/cambozola/</span>
|
2003-04-23 20:56:15 +08:00
|
|
|
|
which will let you view the image stream in Internet Explorer and others.
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
Otherwise you're limited to just refreshing still images.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>Hardware-wise, ZoneMinder has been used with various
|
|
|
|
|
|
video and USB cameras with the V4L interface. I don't have a lot of cameras
|
2003-12-14 00:09:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
myself so I've not had change to test it with a huge range personally however
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
there is a list of devices that are definitely known to work on the web site.
|
2003-12-14 00:09:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
Please let me know if your camera works and is not listed. You do need to have
|
2004-03-17 06:31:36 +08:00
|
|
|
|
Video4Linux installed. I've not got too many machines so I've only really used
|
2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
it on various RedHat/Fedora distributions, which seem to have everything there
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
by default I think. SlackWare does need a bit more tinkering than other
|
|
|
|
|
|
distributions; there is a document on the web site describing what users have
|
|
|
|
|
|
had to do to get it working. Please give me feedback on other distributions not
|
|
|
|
|
|
listed on the site.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>where <i>--with-mysql</i> identifies the root directory

|
|
|
|
where you have installed MySQL (usually /usr), <i>--with-webdir</i> is the

|
|
|
|
directory to which you want to install the PHP files, and <i>--with-cgidir</i>
|
|
|
|
|

is the directory to which you want to install CGI files. These directories
|

could be <i>/var/www/html/zm</i> and <i>/var/www/cgi-bin</i> for example. If

installed the ffmpeg tools. You can then also use <i><EFBFBD>with-ffmpeg=<path to

2004-05-20 20:44:26 +08:00
|
|
|
|
headers and libraries rather than just the binaries, or a development package

with them in. Additionally if you have built ffmpeg with the mp3lame feature
|
|
|
|
|

turned on you may additionally need to tell configure where to find that the

|
|
mp3lame library, to prevent unresolved dependencies. To do this add the <i><EFBFBD>with-lame=<path

you have to do is do a little more runtime specific configuration. ZoneMinder

<p class=MsoPlainText>to get it started. It is an interactive utility and will

prompt you by asking you various questions. For most questions typing '?' will

give you additional help if you need it. Once you've answered all the questions

2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|

various files to substitute the information in them. If you run it again it

you can run zmconfig.pl in non-interactive mode by typing</p>

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>which will just read your file and do the substitutions
|
|
|
|
|
|
with no questions asked. There are two classes of options, <20>core<72> options which
|
|
|
|

|
much be specified with zmconfig which detail things such as database passwords

which are compiled into ZoneMinder and other options with are stored in the

database and which can be modified dynamically via the <20>options<6E> section of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
web interface. Only the first set need to be completed with zmconfig at this
|
|
|
|
|
|
stage. If you want to change just a few options and can<61>t access the options
|
|
|
|
|
|
dialog via the web you can append them as parameters to zmconfig and it will
|
|
|
|

just ask you about those. So for example,</p>

|
|
|
|
|
|

<p class=MsoPlainText><i>perl ./zmconfig.pl ZM_STRICT_VIDEO_CONFIG</i></p>

make a typo and misspell an option.</p>

|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>Among the first questions zmconfig.pl asks you are to do
|
|
|
|
|
|
with the database and the next thing you should do is create it and the
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
associated database user. The included schema (zmschema.sql) can be used to
|
|
|
|
|
|
actually create the tables required. The database is usually called just 'zm'
|
|
|
|
|
|
but can be anything you like.</p>

2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>If you are a first time user the first run of zmconfig.pl
|
|
|
|
|
|
will warn you about the missing database, you can ignore those errors this
|
|
|
|
|
|
time. Once you<6F>ve run it for the first time the schema file should have your
|
|
|
|
|
|
desired database name in it so use it to create the database (see below). Once
|
|
|
|
|
|
the database and permissions are set up rerun zmconfig.pl with the <20>noi option
|
|
|
|
|
|
to get it to load the configuration into your new database.</p>

2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|

|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>If you are upgrading from a previous version you can use
|
|
|
|
|
|
zmalter-x.y.z.sql to upgrade your database and make the necessary changes where
|
|
|
|
|
|
x.y.z identifies the version of ZoneMinder you had installed previously. So if
|
|
|
|
|
|
you are going from version 0.9.7 to version 0.9.11 you would run the scripts
|
|
|
|
|
|
for all intervening versions to get to the current one, i.e. zmalter-0.9.7.sql,

2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00

zmalter-0.9.8.sql, zmalter-0.9.9.sql and zmalter0.9.10.sql. Alternatively from

2004-09-26 00:37:15 +08:00
|
|
|
|
version 1.19.5 you can use the zmupdate.pl script to do all the updating for

you, this will include all the database changes plus any other tweaks necessary

|
|
|

will be applied, however zmupdate.pl will only work with upgrades from 1.19.0

|
|
|

captured frames and checks them for motion which might generate an alarm or

some frames to prevent it falling behind.</p>

with the Analysis daemon and whose function it is to actually write captured
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00

frames to disk. This frees up the Analysis daemon to do more analysis (!) and

<p class=MsoPlainText>What you see now (and subsequently) depends on whether
|
2004-09-26 00:37:15 +08:00
|
|
|
|
you chose to run ZoneMinder in authenticated mode or not. This is an option
|
|
|
|
|
|
that lets you specify whether anyone that goes to the ZoneMinder web pages must
|
2004-03-22 19:36:48 +08:00
|
|
|
|
authenticate themselves in order to be given permissions to perform certain
|
|
|
|
|
|
tasks. If you chose this mode then you will need to log in here. By default a
|
|
|
|
|
|
fully privileged user <20>admin<69> has been created with a password also of <20>admin<69>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You should change this password as soon as possible.</p>

|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>Once you<6F>ve logged in, or if you are running in
|
|
|
|
|
|
un-authenticated mode, you will now see the ZoneMinder Console window. This
|
|

will resize itself to avoid being too intrusive on your desktop. Along the top
|
|
|

there are several informational entries like the time of the last update and
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|

the current server load. There will also be an indication of the system state

which will probably say <20>stopped<65> to start with. This is a link that you can

other links including one detailing the current user (in authenticated mode
|

2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|

you to optimise your settings depending on where you are, the actual values
|
|
|
|
|
|
relating to this are defined in the options. If you are using a browser on the
|
|
|

same machine or network then choose high, over a cable or DSL link maybe choose
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00

medium and over a dialup choose low. You can experiment to see which is best.

|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>To use ZoneMinder properly you need to define at least
|
2004-03-17 06:31:36 +08:00
|
|
|
|
one Monitor. Essentially, a monitor is associated with a camera and can
|
|
|
|
|
|
continually check it for motion detection and such like. So, next click 'Add
|
|
|
|
|
|
New Monitor' to bring up the dialog. You will see a bunch of things you have to
|
|
|
|
|
|
fill in.</p>

|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>To help you get started on the video configuration the
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
best thing is to use a tool like 'xawtv' (<a href="http://bytesex.org/xawtv/">http://bytesex.org/xawtv/</a>)
|
|
|
|
|
|
to get a picture you're happy with, and to check your camera works. Please note
|
|
|
|
|
|
that just because you can see a video stream in these tools does not
|
|
|
|
|
|
necessarily guarantee that your camera will work with ZoneMinder. This is
|
|
|
|
|
|
because most tools just <20>map<61> the video image through onto screen memory
|
|
|
|
|
|
transparently without intercepting it, whereas ZoneMinder needs to capture the
|
|
|
|
|
|
image and, usually, inspect it. This is called frame grabbing and to check it
|
|
|
|
|
|
you should use the facility in xawtv, or other tool, to capture either one or
|
|
|
|
|
|
more still images or possibly a movie. If this works and the images or movie
|
|
|
|
|
|
are not garbage then the chances are that ZoneMinder will work fine also.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>Once you have validated your camera run 'zmu -d
|
|
|
|
|
|
<device_no> -q -v' to get a dump of the settings (note, you will have to
|
|
|
|
|
|
additionally supply a username and password to zmu if you are running in
|
|
|
|
|
|
authenticated mode). You can then enter these values into the video related
|
2003-12-14 00:09:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
options of the monitor configuration panel. The 'device_no' referred to here is
|
|
|
|
|
|
a number corresponding to the digit at the end of your device file, so
|
|
|
|
|
|
/dev/video0 has a 'device_no' of 0 etc. If 'zmu' gives you an error related to
|
|
|
|
|
|
permissions run 'zmfix -a' to make sure you can access all the video devices.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>The options are divided into a set of tabs to make it

|
|
|
2003-12-14 00:09:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
<p class=MonitorOption>Generally speaking it is best to choose <20>Monitor<6F> as an
|
|
|
|
|
|
initial setting here..</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MonitorOption><b>Section Length</b> <20> This specifies the length (in
|
|
|
|
|
|
seconds) of any fixed length events produced when the monitor function is
|
2004-02-20 22:46:40 +08:00
|
|
|
|
<EFBFBD>Record<EFBFBD> or <20>Mocord<72>. Otherwise it is ignored. This should not be so long that
|
2003-12-14 00:09:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
events are difficult to navigate nor so short that too many events are
|
|
|
|
|
|
generated. A length of between 300 and 900 seconds I recommended.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2004-03-17 06:31:36 +08:00
|
|
|
|
<p class=MonitorOption><b>Frame Skip </b><EFBFBD> This setting also applies only to
|
|
|
|
|
|
the <20>Record<72> or <20>Mocord<72> functions and specifies how many frames should be
|
|
|
|
|
|
skipped in the recorded events. The default setting of zero results in every
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
captured frame being saved. Using a value of one would mean that one frame is
|
|
|
|
|
|
skipped between each saved, two means that two frames are skipped between each
|
|
|
|
|
|
saved frame etc. An alternate way of thinking is that one in every <20>Frame Skip
|
|
|
|
|
|
+ 1<> frames is saved. The point of this is to ensure that saved events do not
|
2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
take up too much space unnecessarily whilst still allowing the camera to
|
|
|
|
|
|
capture at a fairly high frame rate. The alternate approach is to limit the
|
|
|
|
|
|
capture frame rate which will obviously affect the rate at which frames are
|
|
|
|
|
|
saved.</p>

<p class=MonitorOption><b>Run Mode </b><EFBFBD> Two choices are available here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<EFBFBD>Continuous<EFBFBD> is the usual setting and means that the monitor is expected to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
performing the function selected above at all times and should one or more of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the daemons fail or not be running it will be automatically restarted. By
|
|
|
|
|
|
contrast <20>Triggered<65> means that the decision about whether the daemons should
|
|
|
|
|
|
actually be active is devolved to an external triggering mechanism.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MonitorOption><b>Triggers </b><EFBFBD> This small section lets you select
|
2004-02-06 17:41:38 +08:00
|
|
|
|
which triggers will apply if the run mode has been set to <20>triggered<65> above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The most common trigger is X10 and this will appear here if you indicated that
|
|
|
|
|
|
your system supported it during installation. Only X10 is supported as a
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
shipped trigger with ZoneMinder at present but it is possible that other
|
2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
triggers will become available as necessary. You can also just use <20>cron<6F> jobs
|
|
|
|
|
|
or other mechanisms to actually control the camera and keep them completely
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
outside of the ZoneMinder settings. The zmtrigger.pl script is also available

to implement custom external triggering.</p>

<p class=MonitorOption><b>Source Type</b> <20> This determines whether the camera
|
|
|
|
|

is a local one attached to a physical video or USB port on your machine or a

remote network camera or similar. Choosing one or the other affects which set

|

the device number that your camera is attached to. If it is /dev/video0 enter
|
|
|
|
|
|
'0' etc. Some video devices, e.g. BTTV cards support multiple cameras on one
|
|
|
|
|
|
device so in this case enter the channel number in the Channel box or leave it

|
|
|

at zero if you're using a USB camera or one with just one channel. </p>

<p class=MonitorOption><b>Device Format</b> <20> For a local camera enter the
|
|
|
|
|
|
video format of the video stream. This is defined in various system files (e.g.
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
/usr/include/linux/videodev.h) but the two most common are 0 for PAL and 1 for
|
|
|
|
|
|
NTSC.</p>

<p class=MonitorOption><b>Capture Palette</b> <b><EFBFBD> </b>Finally for the video
|
|
|
|
|
|
part of the configuration enter the colour depth. ZoneMinder supports a handful
|
|
|
|
|
|
of the most common palettes, so choose one here. If in doubt try grey first,
|
|
|
|
|
|
and then 24 bit colour. If neither of these work very well then YUV420P or one
|
|
|
|
|
|
of the others probably will. There is a slight performance penalty when using
|
|
|
|
|
|
palettes other than grey or 24 bit colour as an internal conversion is
|
|
|
|
|
|
involved. These other formats are intended to be supported natively in a future
|
|
|
|
|
|
version but for now if you have the choice choose one of grey or 24 bit colour.</p>

|
2004-03-22 19:36:48 +08:00
|
|
|

later. However I would recommend starting with no larger than 320x240 or
|
|
|
|
|
|
352x288 and then perhaps increasing and seeing how performance is affected.

This size should be adequate in most cases. Some cameras are quite choosy about
|
|
|
|
|
|
the sizes you can use here so unusual sizes such as 197x333 should be avoided
|
|
|
|
|
|
initially.</p>

<p class=MonitorOption><b>Orientation</b> <20> If your camera is mounted upside
|
|
|

|
|
down or at right angles you can use this field to specify a rotation that is

|
|

|
applied to the image as it is captured. This incurs an additional processing
|
2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
overhead so if possible it is better to mount your camera the right way round
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
if you can. If you choose one of the rotation options remember to switch the
|
|
|
|
|
|
height and width fields so that they apply, e.g. if your camera captures at
|
|
|
|
|
|
352x288 and you choose <20>Rotate Right<68> here then set the height to be 352 and
|
|

|
|
|
width to be 288. You can also choose to <20>flip<69> the image if your camera

the timestamp that is applied to each frame. It is a <20>strftime<6D> style string.

It is actually passed through strftime and then through printf to add the

<p class=MonitorOption><b>Image Buffer Size</b> <b><EFBFBD> </b>This option determines

the storage space where the last <20>n<EFBFBD> images are kept, ready to be resurrected

|

|
|
on an alarm or just kept waiting to be analysed. It can be any value you like
|
|

with a couple of provisos, (see next options). However it is stored in shared

2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00

|
memory and making it too large especially for large images with a high colour
|
|
|

depth can use a lot of memory. A value of no more than 50<35> is usually ok. If
|

you find that your system will not let you use the value you want it is
|
|
|

probably because your system has an arbitrary limit on the size of shared

<p class=MonitorOption><b>Pre/Post Event Image Buffer</b> <b><EFBFBD> </b>These

options determine how many frames from before and after an event should be
|
|
|
|
|
|
preserved with it. This allows you to view what happened immediately prior and
|
|
|
|
|
|
subsequent to the event. A value of 10 for both of these will get you started
|
|
|
|
|
|
but if you get a lot of short events and would prefer them to run together to
|
|
|
|
|
|
form fewer longer ones then increase the Post Event buffer size. The pre-event
|
|
|
|
|
|
buffer is a true buffer and should not really exceed half the ring buffer size.
|
|
|
|
|
|
However the post-event buffer is just a count that is applied to captured
|
|
|
|
|
|
frames and so can be managed more flexibly. You should also bear in mind the
|
|
|
|
|
|
frame rate of the camera when choosing these values. For instance a network
|
|
|
|
|
|
camera capturing at 1FPS will give you 10 seconds before and after each event
|
|
|
|
|
|
if you chose 10 here. This may well be too much and pad out events more than
|
|
|
|
|
|
necessary. However a fast video card may capture at 25FPS and you will want to
|
|
|
|
|
|
ensure that this setting enables you to view a reasonable time frame pre and
|
|
|
|
|
|
post event.</p>

here to eliminate bogus events caused perhaps by screen flickers or other

|
|
|
that if you have statistics recording enabled then currently statistics are not

recorded for the first <20>Alarm Frame Count<6E>-1 frames of an event. So if you set

|
|
|
|
|
this value to 5 then the first 4 frames will be missing statistics whereas the

more usual value of 1 will ensure that all alarm frames have statistics

<p class=MonitorOption><b>Reference Image Blend %ge</b> <b><EFBFBD> </b>Each analysed
|
|
|
|
|
|
image in ZoneMinder is a composite of previous images and is formed by applying
|
|
|
|
|
|
the current image as a certain percentage of the previous reference image.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thus, if we entered the value of 10 here, each image<67>s part in the reference
|
|
|
|
|
|
image will diminish by a factor of 0.9 each time round. So a typical reference
|
|
|
|
|
|
image will be 10% the previous image, 9% the one before that and then 8.1%,
|
|
|
|
|
|
7.2%, 6.5% and so on of the rest of the way. An image will effectively vanish
|
|
|
|
|
|
around 25 images later than when it was added. This blend value is what is
|
|
|
|
|
|
specified here and if higher will make slower progressing events less
|
|
|
|
|
|
detectable as the reference image would change more quickly. Similarly events
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be deemed to be over much sooner as the reference image adapts to the new
|
|
|
|
|
|
images more quickly. In signal processing terms the higher this value the
|
|
|
|
|
|
steeper the event attack and decay of the signal. It depends on your particular
|
|
|
|
|
|
requirements what the appropriate value would be for you but start with 10 here
|
|
|
|
|
|
and adjust it (usually down) later if necessary.</p>

<p class=MonitorOption><b>Auto Stop Timeout <20></b> Some cameras only support a

|
|

continuous mode of movement. For instance you tell the camera to pan right and
|
|
|
|
|
|
then when it is aligned correctly you tell it to stop. In some cases it is
|
|
|
|
|
|
difficult to time this precisely over a web interface so this option allows you
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
to specify an automatic timeout where the command will be automatically
|
|
|
|
|
|
stopped. So a value of 0.25 here can tell the script to stop moving a quarter
|
|
|
|
|
|
of a second after starting. This allows a more precise method of fine control.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If this value is left blank or at zero it will be ignored, if set then it will
|
|
|
|
|
|
be used as the timeout however it will only be applied for the lower 25% of
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
possible speed ranges. In other words if your camera has a pan speed range of 1

|
|
|
|
|
to 100 then selecting to move at 26 or over will be assumed to imply that you
|
|
|
|
|
|
want a larger movement that you can control yourself and no timeout will be
|
|
|
|
|
|
applied. Selecting motion at lower speeds will be interpreted as requiring
|
|
|
|
|
|
finer control and the automatic timeout will be invoked.</p>

<p class=MonitorOption><b>X10 Output Alarm String</b> - This X10 string also

has the same format as the two above options. However it works in a slightly
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
different way. Instead of ZoneMinder reacting to X10 events this option
|
|
|
|
|
|
controls how ZoneMinder emits X10 signals when the current monitor goes into or
|
|
|
|
|
|
comes out of the alarm state. Thus just entering a number will cause the ON
|
|
|
|
|
|
signal for that unit code to be sent when going into alarm state and the OFF
|
|
|
|
|
|
signal when coming out of alarm state. Similarly 7+30 will send the unit code 7
|
|
|
|
|
|
ON signal when going into alarm state and the OFF signal 30 seconds later
|
2004-09-26 00:37:15 +08:00
|
|
|
|
regardless of state. The combination of the X10 instruction allows ZoneMinder
|
|
|
|
|
|
to react intelligently to, and also assume control of, other devices when
|
|
|
|
|
|
necessary. However the indiscriminate use of the Input Alarm and Output Alarm
|
|
|
|
|
|
signals can cause some horrendous race conditions such as a light going on in
|
|
|
|
|
|
response to an alarm which then causes an alarm itself and so on. Thus some
|
|
|
|
|
|
circumspection is required here. Leave this blank for now anyway.</p>

means that that monitor is not configured for any function and as a consequence

has no zmc (capture) daemon running on it. If it were orange it would mean that

a zmc daemon was running but no zma (analysis) daemon and green means both are

running. In our case it is red because we defined the Monitor to have a

|
Function of None so no daemons are required. To get the daemons up and running
|
|
|
|
|
|
you can either click on the source listed in the Source column and edit the

|
2004-09-26 18:07:22 +08:00

which will ensure that one or more appropriate daemons are started

automatically.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>If you have several cameras (and thus monitors) on a

if just one monitor is active then the daemon is active for both even if all

it's something obvious.</p>

certain monitors to view. For instance you may only wish to view outdoor

|
|
|
|
|
|
a group then your selection will be remembered via a cookie and will be used
|
|
|
|
|
|
until you change it. You can call your groups anything you like, though
|
|
|
|

<EFBFBD>Mobile<EFBFBD> has a special meaning (see Mobile Devices below). There may also be a
|

|
|
|
|
<EFBFBD>Cycle<EFBFBD> link which allows you to cycle through a shot from each of your

2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
<EFBFBD>Montage<EFBFBD> it will allow you view all your active enabled cameras (in the

amounts of bandwidth and CPU so should not be used continuously unless you have

resource to burn. </p>

<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:36.0pt'><u>Active</u> : This is the
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone type you'll use most often, and which will be set for your default zone.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This means that this zone will trigger an alarm on any events that occur within
|
|
|
|
|
|
it that meet the selection criteria. </p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:36.0pt'><u>Inclusive</u> : This zone
|
|
|
|
|
|
type can be used for any zones that you want to trigger an alarm only if at
|
|
|
|
|
|
least one other Active zone has already triggered one. This might be for
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
example to cover an area of the image like a plant or tree which moves a lot
|
|
|
|
|
|
and which would trigger lots of alarms. Perhaps this is behind an area you'd
|
|
|
|
|
|
like to monitor though, in this case you'd create an active zone covering the
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
non-moving parts and an inclusive zone covering the tree perhaps with less
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
sensitive detection settings also. If something triggered an alarm in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
Active zone and also in the Inclusive zone they would both be registered and
|
|
|
|
|
|
the resulting alarm would be that much bigger than if you had blanked it out
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
altogether.</p>
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:36.0pt'><u>Exclusive</u> : The next
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone Type is Exclusive. This means that alarms will only be triggered in this
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone if no alarms have already been triggered in Active zones. This is the most
|
|
|
|
|
|
specialised of the zone types and you may never use it but in its place it is
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
very useful. For instance in the camera covering my garden I keep watch for a
|
|
|
|
|
|
hedgehog that visits most nights and scoffs the food out of my cats bowls. By
|
|
|
|
|
|
creating a sensitive Exclusive zone in that area I can ensure that a hedgehog
|
|
|
|
|
|
alarm will only trigger if there is activity in that small area. If something
|
|
|
|
|
|
much bigger occurs, like someone walking by it will trigger a regular alarm and
|
|
|
|
|
|
not one from the Exclusive zone. Thus I can ensure I get alarms for big events
|
|
|
|
|
|
and also special small events but not the noise in between.</p>

2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:36.0pt'><u>Preclusive</u> : This zone
|
|
|
|
|
|
type is relatively recent. It is called a Preclusive zone because if it is
|
|
|
|
|
|
triggered it actually precludes an alarm being generated for that image frame.
|
|
|
|
|
|
So motion or other changes that occur in a Preclusive zone will have the effect
|
|
|
|
|
|
of ensuring that no alarm occurs at all. The application for this zone type is
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
primarily as a shortcut for detecting general large-scale lighting or other
|
|
|
|
|
|
changes. Generally this may be achieved by limiting the maximum number of alarm
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
pixels or other measure in an Active zone. However in some cases that zone may
|
|
|
|
|
|
cover an area where the area of variable illumination occurs in different
|
|
|
|
|
|
places as the sun and/or shadows move and it thus may be difficult to come up
|
|
|
|
|
|
with general values. Additionally, if the sun comes out rapidly then although
|
|
|
|
|
|
the initial change may be ignored in this way as the reference image catches up
|
|
|
|
|
|
an alarm may ultimately be triggered as the image becomes less different. Using
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
one or more Preclusive zones offers a different approach. Preclusive zones are
|
|
|
|
|
|
designed to be fairly small, even just a few pixels across, with quite low
|
|
|
|
|
|
alarm thresholds. They should be situated in areas of the image that are less
|
|
|
|
|
|
likely to have motion occur such as high on a wall or in a corner. Should a
|
|
|
|
|
|
general illumination change occur they would be triggered at least as early as
|
|
|
|
|
|
any Active zones and prevent any other zones from generating an alarm.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Obviously careful placement is required to ensure that they do not cancel any
|
|
|
|
|
|
genuine alarms or that they are not so close together that any motion just hops
|
|
|
|
|
|
from one Preclusive zone to another. As always, the best way is to experiment a
|
|
|
|
|
|
little and see what works for you.</p>

|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:36.0pt'><u>Inactive </u>: This final
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone type is the opposite of Active. In this zone type no alarms will ever be
|
|
|
|
|
|
reported. You can create an Inactive zone to cover any areas in which nothing
|
|
|
|
|
|
notable will ever happen or where you get constant false alarms that don't
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00

relate to what you are trying to monitor. An Inactive zone can overlay other zone

<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:27.0pt'>I mentioned above that
|
|
|
|
|
|
Inactive zones may be overlaid on other zones to blank out areas however as a
|
|
|
|
|
|
general principle you should try and make zones abut each other as much as
|
|
|
|
|
|
possible and do not overlap. This helps avoid repeated duplicate processing of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the same area. For instance an Inclusive zone overlaying an Active zone when
|
|
|
|
|
|
all other settings are the same will always trigger when the Active zone does
|
|
|
|
|
|
which somewhat defeats the object of the exercise. One exception to this is
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
Preclusive zones. These may be situated within Active areas are they are
|
|
|
|
|
|
processed first and if small may actually save processing time by preventing

full analysis of the image.</p>

would be to initially enter the settings in Percent and then change to Pixels

reasons of performance. Note, the sense of the percentage values changed in

|
|
|
|
version 1.19.0. Prior to that percentages referred to the area of the image as

applied to determine whether a frame represents an alarm or not. The three

options are <20>AlarmPixels<6C>, <20>FilteredPixels<6C> and <20>Blobs<62> and depending on which

option is chosen some of the following other settings may become unavailable. The
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|

first of these indicates that only a count of individual alarmed pixels should

be used to determine the state of a image, the second indicate that the pixels

2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00

and the third uses a more sophisticated analysis which is designed to aggregate

|
|
|
|
|
|
ZoneMinder has always used previously (before it became optional) and so this
|
|
|
|
|
|
is the default. However this method takes slightly longer and so if you find
|
|
|
|
|
|
that one of the other methods works just as well for you and you wish to
|
|
|
|
|
|
maximise performance you can opt for that instead. Some of the more useful

<EFBFBD> These setting are used to define limits for the difference in value between a

pixel and its predecessor in the reference image. For greyscale images this is
|

simple but for colour images the colours are averaged first, originally this

that subtle colour changes without any brightness change may go undetected but

this is not the normal circumstance. There is also the option to use a more

<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:27.0pt'><b>Min/Maximum Alarmed Area</b>
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The following two settings define the minimum and maximum number of pixels
|
|
|
|
|
|
that exceed this threshold that would cause an alarm. If the units are Percent
|
|
|
|
|
|
this (and following options) refers to the percentage of the frame and not the
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone, this is so these values can be related between zones. The minimum value
|
|
|
|
|
|
must be matched or exceeded for an alarm to be generated whereas the maximum
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
must not be exceeded or the alarm will be cancelled. This is to allow for
|
|
|
|
|
|
sudden changes such as lights coming on etc, which you may wish to disregard. In
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
general a value of zero for any of these settings causes that value to be
|
2004-02-06 05:57:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
ignored, so you can safely set a maximum to zero and it will not be used. The
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
use of just a number of pixels is however a very brute force method of
|
|
|
|
|
|
detection as many small events dispersed widely are not distinguished from a
|
|
|
|
|
|
compact one.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:27.0pt'><b>Filter Width/Height</b> <20>
|
|
|
|
|
|
To improve detection of valid event ZoneMinder applies several other functions
|
|
|
|
|
|
to the data to improve its ability to distinguish interesting signals from
|
|
|
|
|
|
uninteresting noise. The first of these is a filter that removes any pixels
|
|
|
|
|
|
that do not participate in a contiguous block of pixels above a certain size.
|
|
|
|
|
|
These options are always expressed in pixels and should be fairly small, and an
|
2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
odd number, three or five is a good value to choose initially. Application of
|
|
|
|
|
|
this filter removes any tiny or discontinuous pixels that don't form part of a
|
2004-02-06 17:41:38 +08:00
|
|
|
|
discrete block. </p>

<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:27.0pt'><b>Min/Maximum Filtered Area</b>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<EFBFBD> These are two additional bounds that specify the limits of pixels that would
|
|
|
|
|
|
cause an alarm after this filtering process. As the filtering process can only
|
|
|
|
|
|
remove alarmed pixels it makes no sense for the Minimum and Maximum Filtered
|
|
|
|
|
|
Area to be larger than the equivalent Alarmed Area and in general they should

|
be smaller or the same.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText style='margin-left:27.0pt'><b>Min/Maximum Blob Area</b> -
|
|
|
|
|

The next step in the analysis phase is the collation of any remaining alarmed
|
|
|
|
|
|
areas into contiguous blobs. This process parses the image and forms any pixels
|
|
|
|
|
|
that adjoin other alarmed pixels into one or more larger blobs. These blobs may
|
|
|
|
|
|
be any shape and can be as large as the zone itself or as small as the filtered
|
|
|
|
|
|
size. The Minimum and Maximum Blob Size settings allow you to define limits
|
|
|
|
|

within which an alarm will be generated. Of these only the Minimum is likely to

|
|
|

be very useful.</p>

it starts or continues an alarm event.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>If you have defined your system as having controllable
|
|
|

|
|
monitors and you are looking at a monitor that is configured for control, then
|
|
|
|
|
|
clicking on the <20>Control<6F> link along the top of the window will change the
|
|
|
|
|
|
short event listing area to a control area. The capabilities you have defined
|
|
|
|
|
|
earlier determine exactly what is displayed in this window. Generally you will
|
|
|
|
|
|
have a Pan/Tilt control area along with one or subsidiary areas such as zoom or
|
|
|
|
|
|
focus control to the side. If you have preset support then these will be near
|
|
|
|
|
|
the bottom of the window. The normal method of controlling the monitor is by
|
|
|
|
|
|
clicking on the appropriate graphics which then send a command via the control
|
|
|
|
|
|
script to the camera itself. This may sometimes take a noticeable delay before
|
|
|
|
|
|
the camera responds.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>It is usually the case that the control arrows are
|
|
|
|
|
|
sensitive to where you click on them. If you have a camera that allows
|
|
|
|
|
|
different speeds to be used for panning or zooming etc then clicking near the
|
|
|
|
|
|
point of the arrow will invoke the faster speed whilst clicking near the base
|
|
|
|
|
|
of the arrow will be slower. If you have defined continuous motion then ongoing
|
|
|
|
|
|
activities can be stopped by clicking on the area between the arrows, which
|
|
|
|
|
|
will either be a graphic in the case of pan/tilt controls or a word in the case
|
|
|
|
|
|
of zoom and focus controls etc. Certain control capabilities such as mapped
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
motion allow direct control by clicking on the image itself when used in
|
|
|
|
|

browsers which support streamed images directly. Used in this way you can just
|
|
|
|
|
|
click on the area of the image that interests you and the camera will centre on
|
|
|
|
|
|
that spot. You can also use direct image control for relative motion when the
|
|
|
|
|
|
area of the image you click on defines the direction and the distance away from
|
|
|
|
|
|
the centre of the image determines the speed. As it is not always very easy to
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
estimate direction near the centre of the image, the active area does not start
|
|
|
|
|
|
until a short distance away from the centre, resulting in a <20>dead<61> zone in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
middle of the image.</p>

|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>The other columns on the main console window contain
|
2004-02-20 22:46:40 +08:00
|
|
|
|
various event totals for your monitors over the last hour, day, week and month
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
as well as a grand total and a total for events that you may have archived for
|
|
|
|
|
|
safekeeping. Clicking on one of these totals or on the 'All' or 'Archive' links
|
|
|
|
|
|
from the monitor window described above will present you with a new display.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the full event window and contains a list of events selected according
|
|
|
|
|
|
to a filter which will also pop up in its own window. Thus if you clicked on a
|
|
|
|
|
|
'day' total the filter will indicate that this is the period for which events
|
|
|
|
|
|
are being filtered. The event listing window contains a similar listing to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
recent events in the monitor window. The primary differences are that the
|
|
|
|
|
|
frames and alarm frames and the score and maximum score are now broken out into
|
|
|
|
|
|
their own columns, all of which can be sorted by clicking on the heading. Also
|
|
|
|
|
|
this window will not refresh automatically, rather only on request. Other than
|
|
|
|
|
|
that, you can choose to view events here or delete them as before.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>The other window that appeared is a filter window. You
|
|
|
|
|
|
can use this window to create your own filters or to modify existing ones. You
|
|
|
|
|
|
can even save your favourite filters to re-use at a future date. Filtering
|
|
|
|
|
|
itself is fairly simple; you first choose how many expressions you'd like your
|
|
|
|
|
|
filter to contain. Changing this value will cause the window to redraw with a
|
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding row for each expression. You then select what you want to filter
|
|
|
|
|
|
on and how the expressions relate by choosing whether they are 'and' or 'or'
|
|
|
|
|
|
relationships. For filters comprised of many expressions you will also get the
|
2004-04-22 06:38:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
option to bracket parts of the filter to ensure you can express it as desired.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then if you like choose how you want your results sorted and whether you want
|
|
|
|
|
|
to limit the amount of events displayed.</p>
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>There are several different elements to an event that you
|
|
|
|
|
|
can filter on, some of which require further explanation. These are as follows,
|
2004-02-06 05:57:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
'Date/Time' which must evaluate to a date and a time together, 'Date' and
|
2004-05-06 06:17:07 +08:00
|
|
|
|
'Time' which are variants which may only contain the relevant subsets of this,
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Weekday' which as expected is a day of the week. All of the preceding elements
|
|
|
|
|
|
take a very flexible free format of dates and time based on the PHP strtotime
|
|
|
|
|
|
function (http://www.zend.com/manual/function.strtotime.php). This allows
|
|
|
|
|
|
values such as 'last Wednesday' etc to be entered. I recommend acquainting
|
|
|
|
|
|
yourself with this function to see what the allowed formats are. However
|
|
|
|
|
|
automated filters are run in perl and so are parsed by the Date::Manip package.
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
Not all date formats are available in both so if you are saved your filter to do
|
|
|
|
|
|
automatic deletions or other tasks you should make sure that the date and time
|
|
|
|
|
|
format you use is compatible with both methods. The safest type of format to
|
|
|
|
|
|
use is <20>-3 day<61> or similar with easily parseable numbers and units are in English.</p>
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>The other elements you can filter on are all fairly self
|
|
|
|
|
|
explanatory except perhaps for 'Archived' which you can use to include or
|
|
|
|
|
|
exclude Archived events. In general you'll probably do most filtering on
|
2004-04-22 06:38:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
un-archived events. There are also two elements, Disk Blocks and Disk Percent
|
|
|
|
|
|
which don<6F>t directly relate to the events themselves but to the disk partition
|
|
|
|
|
|
on which the events are stored. These allow you to specify an amount of disk
|
|
|
|
|
|
usage either in blocks or in percentage as returned by the <20>df<64> command. They
|
|
|
|
|
|
relate to the amount of disk space used and not the amount left free. Once your
|
|
|
|
|
|
filter is specified, clicking 'submit' will filter the events according to your
|
|
|
|
|
|
specification. As the disk based elements are not event related directly if you
|
|
|
|
|
|
create a filter and include the term <20>DiskPercent > 95<39> then if your current
|
|
|
|
|
|
disk usage is over that amount when you submit the filter then all events will
|
|
|
|
|
|
be listed whereas if it is less then none at all will. As such the disk related
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
terms will tend to be used mostly for automatic filters (see below). If you
|
|
|
|
|
|
have created a filter you want to keep, you can name it and save it by clicking
|
2004-04-22 06:38:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
'Save'.</p>
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>If you do this then the subsequent dialog will also allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
you specify whether you want this filter automatically applied in order to
|
|
|
|
|
|
delete events or upload events via ftp to another server and mail notifications
|
|
|
|
|
|
of events to one or more email accounts. In most cases you can specify your
|
|
|
|
|
|
preferences for upload formats and email content during configuration time
|
|
|
|
|
|
(make sure you type '?' to get help on options). Emails and messages
|
|
|
|
|
|
(essentially small emails intended for mobile phones or pagers) have a variety
|
|
|
|
|
|
of tokens that can be substituted for various details of the event that caused
|
|
|
|
|
|
them. This includes links to the event view or the filter as well as the option
|
|
|
|
|
|
of attaching images or videos to the email itself. See the included templates
|
|
|
|
|
|
zmconfig_eml.txt and zmconfig_msg.txt for a fuller explanation of the
|
2004-04-22 06:38:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
availability and meaning of these tokens. Finally you can also specify a script
|
2004-05-06 06:17:07 +08:00
|
|
|
|
which is run on each matched event. This script should be readable and
|
|
|
|
|
|
executable by your web server user. It will get run once per event and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
relative path to the directory containing the event in question. Normally this
|
|
|
|
|
|
will be of the form <MonitorName>/<EventId> so from this path you
|
|
|
|
|
|
can derive both the monitor name and event id and perform any action you wish. Note
|
|
|
|
|
|
that arbitrary commands are not allowed to be specified in the filter, for security
|
|
|
|
|
|
the only thing it may contain is the full path to an executable. What that
|
|
|
|
|
|
contains is entirely up to you however.</p>

2004-02-06 05:57:14 +08:00
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>Filtering is a powerful mechanism you can use to
|
|
|
|
|
|
eliminate events that fit a certain pattern however in many cases modifying the
|
|
|
|
|
|
zone settings will better address this. Where it really comes into its own is
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
generally in applying time filters, so for instance events that happen during
|
2004-05-06 06:17:07 +08:00
|
|
|
|
weekdays or at certain times of the day are highlighted, uploaded or deleted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally using disk related terms in your filters means you can
|
|
|
|
|
|
automatically create filters that delete the oldest events when your disk gets
|
|
|
|
|
|
full. Be warned however that if you use this strategy then you should limit the
|
|
|
|
|
|
returned results to the amount of events you want deleted in each pass until
|
|
|
|
|
|
the disk usage is at an acceptable level. If you do not do this then the first
|
|
|
|
|
|
pass when the disk usage is high will match, and then delete, all events unless
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
you have used other criteria inside of limits. ZoneMinder ships with a sample
|
|
|
|
|
|
filter already installed, though disabled. The PurgeWhenFull filter can be used
|
|
|
|
|
|
to delete the oldest events when your disk starts filling up. To use it you
|
|
|
|
|
|
should select and load it in the filter interface, modify it to your
|
|
|
|
|
|
requirements, and then save it making you sure you check the <20>Delete Matching
|
|
|
|
|
|
Events<EFBFBD> option. This will then run in the background and ensure that your disk
|
|
|
|
|
|
does not fill up with events.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>From the monitor or filtered events listing you can now

you will see a series of images that make up the event. You will also see a

|
|
|
|

link to allow you to view the still images themselves. If you don't have
|
|
|
|
|
|
streaming then you will be taken directly to this page. The images themselves
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
are thumbnail size and depending on the configuration and bandwidth you have
|
|
|
|
|
|
chosen will either be the full images scaled in your browser of actual scaled
|
|
|
|
|
|
images. If it is the latter, if you have low bandwidth for example, it may take
|
|
|
|
|
|
a few seconds to generate the images. If thumbnail images are required to be
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
generated, they will be kept and not re-generated in future. Once the images
|

appear you can mouse over them to get the image sequence number and the image

score.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>You will notice for the first time that alarm images now
|
|
|
|
|
|
contain an overlay outlining the blobs that represent the alarmed area. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
outline is in the colour defined for that zone and lets you see what it was
|
|
|
|
|
|
that caused the alarm. Clicking on one of the thumbnails will take you to a
|
|
|
|
|
|
full size window where you can see the image in all its detail and scroll
|
|

2003-04-23 20:56:15 +08:00
|
|
|
|
ZM_RECORD_EVENT_STATS option on, you will be able to click the 'Stats' link
|
|
|
|
|
|
here and get some analysis of the cause of the event. Should you determine that
|
|
|
|
|
|
you don't wish to keep the event, clicking on Delete will erase it from the
|
|
|
|
|
|
database and file system. Returning to the event window, other options here are
|
2004-09-26 18:07:22 +08:00
|
|
|
|
renaming the event to something more meaningful, refreshing the window to
|
|

replay the event stream, deleting the event, switching between streamed and
|
|
|
|
|
|
still versions of the event (if supported) and generating an MPEG video of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
event (if supported).</p>

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>These last two options require further explanation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Archiving an event means that it is kept to one side and not displayed in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
normal event listings unless you specifically ask to view the archived events.
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
This is useful for keeping events that you think may be important or just wish
|
|
|
|
|
|
to protect. Once an event is archived it can be deleted or unarchived but you
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
cannot accidentally delete it when viewing normal unarchived events.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>The final option of generating an MPEG video is still
|
2004-02-20 22:46:40 +08:00
|
|
|
|
somewhat experimental and its usefulness may vary. It can use either the
|
2003-07-11 04:50:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
Berkeley MPEG encoder or the faster and new ffmpeg encoder. Either of these
|
|
|
|
|
|
will generate a short video, which will be downloaded to your browsing machine
|
|
|
|
|
|
to view. Due to the relatively slow frame rate that ZoneMinder will capture at
|
2003-12-14 00:09:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
and the high minimum frame rate that the Berkeley encoder uses videos created
|
2004-09-26 00:37:15 +08:00
|
|
|
|
by this method will be very quick. However when using the ffmpeg encoder,
|
|
|
|
|
|
ZoneMinder will attempt to match the duration of the video with the duration of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the event. This has the useful effect of making the video watchable and not too
|
|
|
|
|
|
quick while having the unfortunate side effect of increasing file size and
|
|
|
|
|
|
generation time. Ffmpeg in particular has a particularly rich set of options
|
|
|
|
|
|
and you can specify during configuration which additional options you may wish
|
2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
to include to suit your preferences. In particular you may need to specify
|
|
|
|
|
|
additional, or different, options if you are creating videos of events with
|
|
|
|
|
|
particularly slow frame rates as some codecs only support certain ranges of
|
|
|
|
|
|
frame rates. Details of these options can be found in the documentation for the
|
|
|
|
|
|
encoders and is outside the scope of this document.</p>

|
<p class=MsoPlainText>Building an MPEG video, especially for a large event, can
|
|
|
|
|
|
take some time and should not be undertaken lightly as the effect on your host
|
|
|
|
|
|
box of many CPU intensive encoders will not be good. However once a video has
|
|
|
|
|
|
been created for an event it will be kept so subsequent viewing will not incur
|
2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
the generation overhead. Videos can also be included in notification emails,
|
|
|
|
|
|
however care should be taken when using this option as for many frequent events
|
|
|
|
|
|
the penalty in CPU and disk space can quickly mount up.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>One of the options you may notice in the <20>System<65> tab
|
|
|
|
|
|
allows you to specify the default language for your installation of ZoneMinder.
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
Versions 1.17.0 and later support multiple languages but rely on users to assist
|
|
|
|
|
|
in creating language files for specific languages. To specify a language you
|
|
|
|
|
|
will have to give the applicable code, thus for UK English this is en_gb, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
for US English it would be en_us, if no language is given then UK English is
|
|
|
|
|
|
assumed. Most languages will be specified in this nn_mm format and to check
|
2004-09-26 00:37:15 +08:00
|
|
|
|
which languages are available look for files named zm_lang_*.php in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
ZoneMinder build directory where the parts represented by the <20>*<2A> would be what
|
|
|
|
|
|
you would enter as a language. This is slightly unwieldy and will probably be
|
|
|
|
|
|
improved in future to make it easier to determine language availability. On
|
|
|
|
|
|
checking which languages are available it may be that your preferred language
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
is not currently included and if this is the case please consider doing a translation
|
|
|
|
|
|
and sending it back to it may be included in future releases. All the language
|
|
|
|
|
|
elements are given in the zm_lang_en_gb.php file along with a few notes to help
|
|
|
|
|
|
you understand the format.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>As mentioned above, you may also see a <20>users<72> tab in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
Options area. In this section you will see a list of the current users defined
|
|
|
|
|
|
on the system. You can also add or delete users from here. It is recommended
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
you do not delete the admin user unless you have created another fully
|
|
|
|
|
|
privileged user to take over the same role. Each user is defined with a name
|
|
|
|
|
|
and password (which is hidden) as well as an enabled setting which you can use
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
to temporarily enable or disable users, for example a guest user for limited
|
|
|
|
|
|
time access. As well as that there is a language setting that allows you to
|
|
|
|
|
|
define user specific languages. Setting a language here that is different than
|
|
|
|
|
|
the system language will mean that when that user logs in they will have the
|
|
|
|
|
|
web interface presented in their own language rather than the system default,
|
|
|
|
|
|
if it is available. Specifying a language here is done in the same way as for
|
|
|
|
|
|
the system default language described above.</p>

2004-05-20 20:44:26 +08:00
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>There are also four values that define the user
|
|
|
|
|
|
permissions, these are <20>stream<61>, <20>events<74>, <20>monitors<72> and <20>system<65> Each can
|
|
|
|
|
|
have values of <20>none<6E>, <20>view<65> or <20>edit<69> apart from <20>stream<61> which has no <20>edit<69>
|
|
|
|
|
|
setting. These values cover access to the following areas; <20>stream<61> defines
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
whether a user is allowed to view the <20>live<76> video feeds coming from the
|
|
|
|
|
|
cameras. You may wish to allow a user to view historical events only in which
|
|
|
|
|
|
case this setting should be <20>none<6E>. The <20>events<74> setting determines whether a
|
|
|
|
|
|
user can view and modify or delete any retained historical events. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
<EFBFBD>monitors<EFBFBD> setting specifies whether a user can see the current monitor
|
|
|
|
|
|
settings and change them. Finally the <20>system<65> setting determines whether a
|
|
|
|
|
|
user can view or modify the system settings as a whole, such as options and
|
|
|
|
|
|
users or controlling the running of the system as a whole. As well as these
|
|
|
|
|
|
settings there is also a monitor ids setting that can be used for non-<2D>system<65>
|
|
|
|
|
|
users to restrict them to only being able to access streams, events or monitors
|
|
|
|
|
|
for the given monitors ids as a comma separated list with no spaces. If a user
|
|
|
|
|
|
with <20>monitors<72> edit privileges is limited to specific monitors here they will
|
|
|
|
|
|
not be able to add or delete monitors but only change the details of those they
|
|
|
|
|
|
have access to. If a user has <20>system<65> privileges then the <20>monitors ids<64>
|
|
|
|
|
|
setting is ignored and has no effect.<2E></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>Version 1.21.0 of ZoneMinder introduced a new feature,
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
allowing you to control cameras from the web interface and to some extent
|
|
|
|
|
|
automatically. Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) cameras have a wide range of capabilities
|
|
|
|
|
|
and use a large number of different protocols making any kind of generic
|
|
|
|
|
|
control solution potentially very difficult. To address this ZoneMinder uses
|
|
|
|
|
|
two key approaches to get around this problem.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText><span class=name1><b>2) Control Scripts</b></span> <20>
|
|
|
|
|
|
ZoneMinder itself does not generally provide the ability to send commands to
|
|
|
|
|
|
cameras or receive responses. What it does is mediate motion requests from the
|
|
|
|
|
|
web interface into a standard set of commands which are passed to a script
|
|
|
|
|
|
defined in the control capability. Example scripts are provided in ZoneMinder
|
|
|
|
|
|
which support a number of serial or network protocols but it is likely that for
|
|
|
|
|
|
many cameras new scripts will have to be created. These can be modelled on the
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
example ones, or if control commands already exist from other applications,
|
|
|
|
|
|
then the script can just act as a <20>glue<75> layer between ZoneMinder and those
|
|
|
|
|
|
commands.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:black'>It should be emphasised that
|
|
|
|
|
|
the control and capability elements of ZoneMinder are not intended to be able
|
|
|
|
|
|
to support every camera out of the box. Some degree of development is likely to
|
|
|
|
|
|
be required for many cameras. This should often be a relatively straightforward
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
task however if you have a camera that you want to be supported then please feel
|
|
|
|
|
|
free to get in touch and I should be able to provide an estimate for how much
|
|
|
|
|
|
effort this is likely to be. It is also the case that I have only been able to
|
|
|
|
|
|
access this limited number of cameras to test against; some other cameras may
|
|
|
|
|
|
use different motion paradigms that don<6F>t fit into the control
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
capability/script architecture that ZoneMinder uses. If you come across any
|
|
|
|
|
|
cameras like this then please forward as much information to me as possible so
|
|
|
|
|
|
that I may be able to extend the ZoneMinder model to encompass them.</span></p>

you need to do is ensure that it has an accurate entry in the capabilities

<p class=MsoPlainText><span style='color:black'>The second key element to
|
|
|
|
|
|
controlling cameras with ZoneMinder is ensuring that an appropriate control
|
|
|
|
|
|
script or application is present. A small number of sample scripts are included
|
|
|
|
|
|
with ZoneMinder and can be used directly or as the basis for development.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Control scripts are run atomically, that is to say that one requested action
|
|
|
|
|
|
from the web interface results in one execution of the script and no state
|
|
|
|
|
|
information is maintained. If your protocol requires state information to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
preserved then you should ensure that your scripts do this as ZoneMinder has no
|
|
|
|
|
|
concept of the state of the camera in control terms.</span></p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>If you are writing a new control script then you need to
|
|
|
|
|
|
ensure that it supports the parameters that ZoneMinder will pass to it. If you
|
|
|
|
|
|
already have scripts or applications that control your cameras, the ZoneMinder
|
|
|
|
|
|
control script will just act as glue to convert the parameters passed into a
|
|
|
|
|
|
form that your existing application understands. If you are writing a script to
|
|
|
|
|
|
support a new protocol then you will need to convert the parameters passed into
|
|
|
|
|
|
the script to equivalent protocol commands. If you have carefully defined your
|
|
|
|
|
|
control capabilities above then you should only expect commands that correspond
|
|
|
|
|
|
to those capabilities.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>ZoneMinder has always had a minimal WML (Wireless Markup
|
|
|
|
|
|
Language) capability to allow it to function on mobile phones and similar
|
|
|
|
|
|
devices. However as of 1.20.0 this is now deprecated and has been replaced with
|
|
|
|
|
|
a new XHTML <20> Mobile Profile mode as well as the default HTML4. XHTML-MP is a
|
|
|
|
|
|
small, and limited, version of XHTML intended for mobile devices and is based
|
|
|
|
|
|
on XHTML Basic. It does not contain scripting or other dynamic elements and
|
|
|
|
|
|
essentially is a subset of HTML as most people know it.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>The ZoneMinder XHTML-MP interface allows you to log into
|
|
|
|
|
|
your installation via your phone or mobile devices and perform a limited number
|
|
|
|
|
|
of tasks. These include viewing recent events, and monitoring live streams. However
|
|
|
|
|
|
unlike the full interfaces these elements are presented as still images
|
|
|
|
|
|
requiring manual refreshing. For now the XHTML-MP interface is presented as a
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
prototype interface; rather than one offering full capabilities. As such,
|
2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
please feel free to make comments or offer suggestions via the forums on <a
|
|
|
|
|
|
href="http://www.zoneminder.com/">http://www.zoneminder.com</a>. One final word
|
|
|
|
|
|
on mobile mark-up standards in general and their application to ZoneMinder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ideally I<>d like to offer a WML2.0 interface. WML2.0 is a blending of WML1.3,
|
|
|
|
|
|
which is traditional WAP, and XHTML. As such it offers the scripting that WML
|
|
|
|
|
|
has traditionally included plus the better control of markup that is the realm
|
|
|
|
|
|
of XHTML. Unfortunately so far I<>m unaware of any devices that support WML2.0,
|
|
|
|
|
|
certainly I<>ve never had a phone that does. If you find out that a particular
|
|
|
|
|
|
phone does support this then please let me know (or better still send me the
|
|
|
|
|
|
phone!).</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>If you wish to use the XHTML-MP interface to ZoneMinder
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
there is no extra configuration required to enable it per se. However
|
|
|
|
|
|
ZoneMinder needs to be able to figure out what kind of content to deliver to
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
particular browsers, so you have two choices. You can either edit zm.php and
|
|
|
|
|
|
include a definition that corresponds to your phone describing a small number
|
|
|
|
|
|
of basic capabilities, you will see a couple of examples already there, or you
|
|
|
|
|
|
can use the comprehensive open source WURFL package available from <a
|
2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
href="http://wurfl.sourceforge.net/">http://wurfl.sourceforge.net/</a>. You
|
|
|
|
|
|
will need to download both the WURFL php files and the wurfl.xml file itself.
|
|
|
|
|
|
WURFL is a resource containing information on the capabilities of a huge number
|
|
|
|
|
|
of mobile phones, devices and browsers. Thus once it has matched your phone it
|
|
|
|
|
|
can determine various capabilities it may possess. This means that ZoneMinder
|
|
|
|
|
|
itself only has to deal with these capabilities and not the individual phone
|
|
|
|
|
|
types.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>To use WURFL you should install the php files in the same
|
|
|
|
|
|
directory as ZoneMinder and then create a <20>wurfl<66> sub-directory and ensure it
|
|
|
|
|
|
is readable and writeable (or preferably owned by) your web server user. You
|
|
|
|
|
|
should put the wurfl.xml file in there. One other thing you may need to change,
|
|
|
|
|
|
as the xml file is quite large, is the <20>memory_limit<69> setting in php.ini as the
|
|
|
|
|
|
default setting of 8Mb may be too small. Once you<6F>ve done this you should find
|
|
|
|
|
|
that your phone or device is recognised and if it can support XHTML-MP it will
|
|
|
|
|
|
receive that interface. If your phone is very new, or you are using an old
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
version of the XML file you might find that it is not present however. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
WURFL library uses a caching strategy to avoid reloading the whole XML file
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
each time so check if a sensible looking cache file has been created in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
<EFBFBD>wurfl<EFBFBD> sub-directory also check the wurfl.log in the same place.</p>
|
2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p class=MsoPlainText>The WURFL is a third party application and as such I am
|
|
|
|
|
|
unable to offer support directly for it. If you feel your device is missing or
|
|
|
|
|
|
incorrectly represented please contact the authors via their own channels. If
|
|
|
|
|
|
on the other hand you have any comments on ZoneMinder on your device
|
|
|
|
|
|
specifically please let me know and I would be pleased to hear about it.</p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>As support for cookies in mobile devices is patchy at
|
|
|
|
|
|
best, the groups feature is not fully implemented in the XHTML-MP views.
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
Instead if there is a group called <20>Mobile<6C> already defined then that group will
|
|
|
|
|
|
always be effective, if not then all monitors available to the logged in user will
|
|
|
|
|
|
be visible,</p>

in the system error log (normally /var/log/messages on RedHat), the ZoneMinder

|
|
|
|
|
|
ZoneMinder, firstly make sure that you have the correct settings. Use xawtv or
|
2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
something like that to check for settings that work and then run zmu -d
|
|
|

<device_no> -q -v to get the settings. If you can't get them to work with
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
that then the likelihood is they won't work with ZoneMinder. Also check the
|
|
|
|
|
|
system logs (usually /var/log/messages) for any video configuration errors. If
|
|
|
|
|
|
you get some and you're sure they're not a problem then switch off

2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00

|
|
|
|
|
|
can run the zmc capture daemon from the command line as 'zmc --device 0' (or
|
|
|
|
|
|
whatever your video device is). If it returns immediately there's a problem so
|
|
|
|
|

check the logs, if it stays up then your video configuration is probably ok. To
|
|
|
|
|
|
get more information out of it use debug as specified below. Also check that
|
|
|
|
|
|
the shared memory segment has been created by doing 'ipcs -m'. Finally, beware
|
|
|
|
|
|
of doing tests as root and then trying to run as another user as some files may
|
|
|
|
|
|
not be accessible. If you're checking things as root make sure that you clean

up afterwards!</p>

|
|
|
|
|
|
the form 'Can't shmget: Invalid argument'. Generally speaking this is caused by
|
|
|
|
|
|
an attempt to allocate an amount of shared memory greater than your system can
|
|
|
|
|
|
handle. The size it requests is base on the following formula, ring buffer size
|
2004-03-17 06:31:36 +08:00
|
|
|
|
x image width x image height x 3 (for 24 bits images) + a bit of overhead. So
|
|
|
|
|
|
if for instance you were using 24bit 640x480 then this would come to about 92Mb
|
2004-09-26 18:07:22 +08:00
|
|
|
|
if you are using the default buffer size of 100. If this is too large then you
|
|
|
|
|
|
can either reduce the image or buffer sizes or increase the maximum amount of
|
2003-12-14 00:09:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
shared memory available. If you are using RedHat then you can get details on

|

|

to modify the shared memory pool without kernel recompilations though in some

cases this may be necessary. You can also sometimes get shared memory errors if

you have changed the monitor image size for instance. In this case it is
|
|
|
|
|
|
sometimes that an old process is hanging onto the shared memory and will not

|
|
|
|
let it be resized. Ensure that you do a full ZoneMinder restart and/or manually
|
|
|
|

delete the shared memory segment to check. Use the ipcs and ipcrm system

commands to check and remove segments if necessary.</p>

with the PHP configuration. Since version 0.9.8 ZoneMinder has used short PHP
|
|
|
|
|
|
open tags to output information, so instead of something like this '<?php
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo $value ?>', it will be something like this '<?= $value ?>' which
|
|
|
|
|
|
is easier and quicker to write as well as being neater. More information about
|

However although by default most PHP installations support this form, some will
|
|
|
|
|
|
need to have it switched on explicitly. To do this you will first need to find
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
your php.ini file (do a 'locate php.ini' or 'find / -name php.ini'. Be aware
|
|
|
|
|
|
however that sometimes you might find more than one, so ensure you identify the
|
|
|
|
|
|
one that is actually being used. You will then need to find the line that
|
|
|
|
|
|
starts 'short_open_tag = ' and change the Off value to On. This will correct
|
|
|
|
|
|
the problem. However in some cases you may have explicitly switched it off, so
|
|
|
|
|
|
that XML compliant documents can be more easily served, or you may even not
|
|
|
|
|
|
have permission to edit the file. In this case you can go into the web
|
|
|
|
|
|
directory of ZoneMinder and run 'sh retag.sh' which will replace all the short
|
|
|
|
|
|
open tags in the files themselves with the longer variant. You will obviously
|
|
|
|
|
|
have to remember to do this for each subsequent version of ZoneMinder that you
|
|
|
|
|
|
install as well.</p>

|
2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
then it can appear as if ZoneMinder is causing your cameras to fail. This is
|
|
|
|
|
|
because the bandwidth available to cameras is limited by the fairly low USB
|
|
|
|
|
|
speed. In order to use more than one USB camera with ZoneMinder (or any
|
|
|
|
|
|
application) you will need to inform the driver that there are other cameras
|
|
|
|
|
|
requiring bandwidth. This is usually done with a simple module option. Examples
|
|
|
|
|
|
are usb_alt=<n> for the OV511 driver and cams=<n> for CPIA etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Check your driver documentation for more details. Be aware however that sharing
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
cameras in this way on one bus will also limit the capture rate due to the

reduced bandwidth.</p>

|
2004-05-20 20:44:26 +08:00

with RedHat 9 that the zms process fails to terminate correctly when the

|
2005-01-17 01:24:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
process, continue to grow in memory size until they kill the system. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
appears to be a bug in early versions of<6F> apache 2. On other systems it may
|
|
|
|
|
|
appear that zms is leaking and growing. However what grows is the total and
|
|
|
|
|
|
shared memory size while the non-shared memory size stays constant. It's a
|
|
|
|
|
|
little odd but I think what it happening is that as zms picks images out of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
shared memory ring buffer to display, as each slot is read the size of that bit
|
|
|
|
|
|
of memory is added to the shared memory total for the process. As streamed
|
|
|
|
|
|
images are not read consecutively it's a semi-random process so initially most
|
|
|
|
|
|
of the buffer slots are new and the shared memory size grows then as time goes
|
|
|
|
|
|
on the remaining unaccessed slots reduce until once all have been read the
|
|
|
|
|
|
shared memory use caps out at the same size as the actual segment. This is what
|
|
|
|
|
|
I would have expected it to be in the first place, but it seems to do it
|
2004-05-20 20:44:26 +08:00
|
|
|
|
incrementally. Then once this total is hit it grows no further. As it's shared
|
|
|
|
|
|
memory anyway and already in use this apparent leak is not consuming any more
|
|
|
|
|
|
memory than when it started.</p>

</span></span>FEATURE <20> Version 1.21.0 added support for events to be labelled
|
|
|
|
|
|
with Cause and Notes fields. However these could not be modified directly from
|
|
|
|
|
|
the web interface. This has been amended so that an <20>Edit<69> link is now present
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the events listing. Clicking on this allows you to modify these fields for
|
|
|
|
|
|
one or more events so they can be identified as belonging to a particular
|
|
|
|
|
|
incident.</p>

</span></span>FEATURE <20> There has long been a dichotomy between the functions
|
|
|
|
|
|
that can be applied via interactive filters versus background saved filters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This release addresses this to some extent allowing you, for instance, to
|
|
|
|
|
|
archive or unarchive matching events, or edit them as described above. This is
|
|
|
|
|
|
not a complete solution and it is expected that the functionality will converge
|
|
|
|
|
|
further in the future.</p>

|
|
|
|
|
|
be called to access the value of configuration options. This was expensive when
|
|
|
|
|
|
done repeatedly so some classes used cached local variables to avoid this. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
configuration has been rewritten to provide all configuration options as
|
|
|
|
|
|
members of the configuration class which are initialised once on startup and
|
|
|
|
|
|
then can be accessed directly with no further overhead.</p>

</span></span>FEATURE <20> Several users have reported problems using the Perl
|
|
|
|
|
|
Compatible Regular Expression (PCRE) library, mostly to do with it not being
|
|
|
|
|
|
found or an incorrect version being used. This version allows an alternative
|
|
|
|
|
|
method of parsing the output from network cameras that does not depend on
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
libpcre at all. Which method is used is controlled by the option
|
|
|
|
|
|
Options->Network->ZM_NETCAM_REGEXPS. If this option is on then the
|
|
|
|
|
|
traditional regular expression based parsing is implemented, provided you have
|
|
|
|
|
|
built with libpcre. If the option is off or libpcre is missing then a more
|
|
|
|
|
|
basic parsing is used instead. This new method should be slightly faster as it
|
|
|
|
|
|
does not have the overhead of regular expression parsing, however this also
|
|
|
|
|
|
makes it slightly more inflexible. If you experience problems using the new
|
|
|
|
|
|
method with your netcam then you should try switching to the regular expression
|
|
|
|
|
|
based method, and report the issue via the forums, preferably with a snapshot
|
|
|
|
|
|
of the output of your camera.</p>

</span></span>FIX <20> The use of two database users has been somewhat redundant

access the database so you should make a note of the username and password of

the privileged user and then re-enter that using zmconfig.pl when rebuilding

view several events in sequence. In event listing you can check the events you

want to view and then click the <20>View<65> button. This will allow you to navigate

|
through only those events in the normal manner (via Prev and Next links) but
|
|
|
|
|
|
also to view them in sequence by clicking on the <20>Play All<6C> link. This will
|
|
|
|
|
|
replay each event and then automatically move onto the next one. You can stop
|
|
|
|
|
|
this progression at any time by pressing <20>Stop<6F> (which only stops the sequence
|
|
|
|
|
|
and not the currently playing event). The timing of the replay is done
|
|
|
|
|
|
depending on the calculated length of the event (plus one second) and so may

blocks and disk percentage. These are event independent and return the amount

|
of disk space used on the event partition in terms of disk blocks or percentage
|
|
|
|
|
|
as returned by <i>df(1)</i>. Thus filters using these criteria will either
|
|
|
|
|
|
match all events or none at all depending on the disk usage at the time of
|
|
|
|
|
|
filter execution. The addition of these terms along with the ability to sort
|
|
|
|
|
|
and limit filter results now means it is possible to create a filter that will
|
2004-05-06 06:17:07 +08:00

|
|
automatically clear out old events once disk usage exceeds a certain value.
|

|
|
|

|
initially not set to do anything automatically so if you want to use it, you

|
|

|
2004-09-26 18:07:22 +08:00
|
|
|
|
external script or program of your choosing. This can be specified when the
|
|
|
|
|
|
filter is saved. Note that for security reasons this cannot be just any
|
|
|
|
|
|
arbitrary command but must be readable and executable by your web server
|
|
|
|
|
|
effective user. The script or program you specify here will be executed in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
events root directory once for each event and will be passed one parameter
|
2005-01-20 01:37:11 +08:00
|
|
|
|
containing the relative path to the event directory. This will normally be of
|
|
|
|
|
|
the form <i><MonitorName>/<EventId></i> so it it possible to
|
|
|
|
|
|
determine both the monitor and event in question from the path. Note also that
|
|
|
|
|
|
a flag is set per event as with other auto actions indicating that an
|
|
|
|
|
|
executable script has been run on that event and so to exclude it from
|
|
|
|
|
|
subsequent matches. However if you have several filters all with executable
|
|
|
|
|
|
scripts you will find that only the first gets executed as the flag will be set
|
|
|
|
|
|
following successful completion and so no further scripts will be run on that
|
2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
event. Successful completion is indicated by the script returning a zero exit
|
|
|
|
|
|
status, any other status indicates an error and the <i>executed </i>flag will
|
|
|
|
|

not be set.</p>

</span></span>MPEG video streaming. ZoneMinder now supports true video
|
|
|
|
|
|
streaming if configured with the <i><EFBFBD>with-ffmpeg</i> option. This allows one or
|
|
|
|
|
|
both of live or event streaming to be in this format rather than motion JPEG
|
|
|
|
|
|
style as before. Note however that is still somewhat experimental and may not
|
|
|
|
|
|
work on your system. The reason for this is due to the variation in plugins and
|
|
|
|
|
|
video movie formats. Currently I have got it working well with browsers on
|
|
|
|
|
|
Windows platforms using the Windows Media Player plugin and the 'asf' video
|
2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
format. I have also managed to get event streaming working on Mozilla using
|
|
|
|
|
|
mplayer (I think) though it jumps in and out of it's place in the window a bit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I would appreciate any feedback or advice on formats and plugins that work on
|
|
|
|
|
|
your system. Also note that video streaming tends to get buffered before being
|
2004-05-20 20:44:26 +08:00
|
|
|
|
displayed. This can result in the 'live' view being several seconds delayed.</p>

|
|
|
|
|
|
devices has been limited to single stills capture only. This has now changed
|
|
|
|
|
|
and if you entered a remote camera path that returns the <i>multipart/x-mixed-replace</i>
|
2004-03-17 06:31:36 +08:00
|
|
|
|
MIME type then this will be parsed and images extracted from the stream. This
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
is much faster than before and frame rates can be as fast now with network
|
|
|
|
|
|
cameras as with capture cards and video. This feature also has the side-effect
|
|
|
|
|
|
that one ZoneMinder installation can use another as a remote video source.</p>

|
|
|
|
|
|
out why streams were corrupted using Cambozola versions after 0.22. It turned
|
|
|
|
|
|
out that apache was injecting characters into the streams which was screwing up
|
2004-03-18 07:00:39 +08:00
|
|
|
|
the headers. I believe this to be because the initial header had no
|
|
|
|
|
|
content-length header, as the length is indeterminate. So I have added a zero
|
|
|
|
|
|
content length header which I believe fixes the problem though perhaps not in
|

the best way. I have also made the installation link the existing zms binary to
|
|
|
|
|
|
nph-zms so that you can now use zms in non-parsed-header mode. If it detects it
|
|
|
|
|
|
is in this mode then the content-length header is not output, though several
|
|
|
|
|
|
other additional ones are. In nph mode the false character injection seems to
|
|
|
|
|
|
disappear so I suspect this is a better way to use zms.</p>

</span></span>Bulk Frame Records. With the recent advent of the 'Record' and
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Mocord' modes a lot of people have started using ZoneMinder as a pseudo-DVR.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This meant that a lot of database activity was taking place as each captured
|
|
|
|
|
|
frame required its own entry in the database. The frames table has now been
|
2004-03-17 06:31:36 +08:00
|
|
|
|
reorganised so that 'bulk' frames may be written at defined intervals to reduce
|
|
|
|
|
|
this database activity. The records act as markers and individual frame timings
|
|
|
|
|
|
are interpolated in between. Bulk frames are only used when no alarm or motion
|
|
|
|
|
|
detection activity is taking place and normal frame records are kept otherwise.</p>

</span></span>Event List Ordering and Scrolling. It was previously the case
|
|
|
|
|
|
that the <20>Next<78> and <20>Prev<65> buttons on the event view did not always go to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
event that was expected and sometimes disappeared altogether. This behaviour
|
2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
has now been modified and these buttons will now take you to the next and
|
|
|
|
|
|
previous events in the list which the event was selected from. Thus if the list
|
|
|
|
|
|
was sorted on ascending scores then the <20>next<78> event is the one below which has
|
|
|
|
|
|
a higher score etc. A possibly counterintuitive side effect of this is that as
|
2004-03-17 06:31:36 +08:00
|
|
|
|
the default list is sorted by descending time the <20>next<78> event is the one below
|
2004-03-18 07:00:39 +08:00
|
|
|
|
in the list which will actually be earlier and the <20>previous<75> event is later.
|
|
|
|
|
|
So long as you remember that next and prev refer to the order of the list you
|
2004-03-17 06:31:36 +08:00
|
|
|
|
should be ok.</p>

|
|
|
|
|
defined either in terms of total pixels or as a percentage. This percentage was
|
|
|

|
defined relative to the size of the image as a whole. However this was

|
|
|
|
|
difficult to calculate or estimate especially with several zones of varying
|
|
|
|
|
|
sizes. In version 1.19.0 this has been changed so that the percentage relates
|
|
|
|
|
|
to the size of the zone itself instead. This should make calculations somewhat
|
|
|
|
|
|
easier. To convert your existing zones you can run zmupdate.pl with the <20>z

2004-03-22 19:36:48 +08:00

table, several people reported that when saving filters they actually got a

duplicate. This resulted in several copies of filters all with the same name as

|
|
the constraint on unique filter names was not present. Well it is now so when
|
2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
upgrading your database all the filters will be renamed from <20>myfilter<65> to
|
|
|
|
|
|
<EFBFBD>myfilter_<id><EFBFBD> where <20><id><EFBFBD> is the id number in the database
|
|
|
|
|
|
(which is then removed). In general the higher the id number the more recent
|
|
|
|
|
|
the filter. So you should go through your filter list deleting old copies and
|
|
|
|
|
|
then rename the last one back to it<69>s original name.</p>

</span></span>Optimisations and Performance Improvements. This release contains
|
|
|
|
|
|
several major performance improvements in various areas. The first of these is
|
|
|
|
|
|
that image processing for YUV style input formats are now pretty much handled
|
2005-03-21 04:45:18 +08:00
|
|
|
|
at almost the same speed as native RGB formats. As this is what the capture
|
|
|
|
|
|
daemons spend most of their time doing, the improvement helps reduce the amount
|
|
|
|
|
|
of CPU time by a significant degree. Application of these changes also
|
|
|
|
|
|
highlighted a bug that had existed previously in YUV conversion which caused
|
|
|
|
|
|
incorrect conversions for certain values. The other two main areas of
|
|
|
|
|
|
optimisation are in the Blend and Delta image functions. Normally when doing
|
|
|
|
|
|
motion detection the analysis daemons spend about 99% of their time comparing a
|
|
|
|
|
|
captured image with the reference image and then blending the two ready for the
|
|
|
|
|
|
next capture. Both of these functions have been significantly improved. In
|
|
|
|
|
|
previous versions there were two options for calculating image deltas (or
|
|
|
|
|
|
differences), a simple RGB average and a Y channel calculation. Historically
|
|
|
|
|
|
the RGB one was faster however with the optimisations the Y channel calculation
|
|
|
|
|
|
(which is more accurate) is now 15-20% faster and so has become the default
|
|
|
|
|
|
though you can select either method by the ZM_Y_IMAGE_DELTAS configuration
|
|
|
|
|
|
option. A new method of image blending has also been added which is up to 6
|
|
|
|
|
|
times faster than the old one which is retained for compatibility and because
|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
in some unusual circumstances it may still be more accurate (see the
|
|
|
|
|
|
ZM_FAST_IMAGE_BLENDS option for details). Altogether these optimisations (along
|
|
|
|
|
|
with other common sense ones such as not maintaining a reference image in
|
|
|
|
|
|
<EFBFBD>Record<EFBFBD> mode where it is not used) significantly reduce the CPU load for most
|
|
|
|
|
|
systems, especially when alarms are not in progress. If an alarm is detected
|
|
|
|
|
|
then a lot of file system and database activity takes place which is limited by
|
|
|
|
|
|
the speed of these resources so the gain will not be as much.</p>

</span></span>Monitor Independent Filters. Previously filters were closely tied
|
|
|
|
|
|
to a monitor and a new filter had to be created for each monitor. This has now
|
|
|
|
|
|
changed and filters can now specify an associated monitor in the same was as
|
|
|
|
|
|
other parameters. Links have now been added to the main console view to allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
you to view lists of events from all monitors in one and saved filters can now
|
2004-02-22 05:48:20 +08:00
|
|
|
|
affected as many or as few monitors as you wish. IMPORTANT: Please note that as
|
|
|
|
|
|
part of the upgrade process all your filters will have any automatic actions
|
|
|
|
|
|
unset. This is because the previous affinity to a particular monitor has now
|
2005-06-13 18:19:02 +08:00
|
|
|
|
been removed and you may be left with several filters all doing the same thing
|
|
|
|
|
|
to all of the events or have filters which for instance delete events on only
|
|
|
|
|
|
one monitor but which now would delete them for all of them. It is recommended
|
|
|
|
|
|
that you review your list of saved filters and delete duplicates before adding
|
|
|
|
|
|
any monitor specific terms and resetting the actions for any that remain.</p>

|
2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00
|
|
|
|
have been added. You can now indicate whether a value is in a set of other

|
|

values, for example <20>cat<61> is in the set of <20>cat, dog, cow, horse<73>. You can also
|
|
|
|
|
|
use regular expressions so <20>cat<61> matches <20>^c.*<2A>. The <20>not in set<65> and <20>not
|
|
|
|
|
|
matches<EFBFBD> operators are also available.</p>

</span></span>Montage Sizing. The montage view allows you to view all of your
|
|
|
|
|
|
active cameras in one window. However if your cameras are different sizes then
|
|
|
|
|
|
this becomes very untidy. You can now constrain the image size of each monitor
|
2004-02-22 05:48:20 +08:00
|
|
|
|
in this view to a fixed size with the ZM_WEB_MONTAGE_WIDTH and
|
|
|
|
|
|
ZM_WEB_MONTAGE_HEIGHT configuration options. Monitor images will be enlarged or
|
|
|
|
|
|
reduced as necessary.</p>

</span></span>Compact Montage. The traditional montage view includes individual
|
|
|
|
|
|
small menus for each monitor and a status display. This results in a somewhat
|
|
|
|
|
|
cluttered display and the refreshing of the status displays may generate more
|
|
|
|
|
|
accesses than desirable. Using the ZM_WEB_COMPACT_MONTAGE configuration option
|
|
|
|
|
|
allows this montage view to only include the monitor streams and one overall
|
|
|
|
|
|
menu bar with no status displays.</p>

</span></span>Monitor Name Constraint. The name given to a monitor is used in
|
|
|
|
|
|
file paths and several other areas. Thus it is important that it follows
|
2004-02-22 05:48:20 +08:00
|
|
|
|
certain conventions but up until this release these names were unrestricted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The monitor form now limits monitor names to alphanumeric characters plus
|
|
|
|
|
|
hyphen and underscore.</p>

</span></span>Timestamp Change. Traditionally ZoneMinder has time-stamped each
|
|
|
|
|
|
image as it is captured. This ensures that all images have their capture time
|
|
|
|
|
|
recorded immediately. However there are several side-effects which may be
|
|
|
|
|
|
undesirable. Firstly the time and resource is spent time-stamping images that
|
|
|
|
|
|
are not recorded and which are discarded, secondly the timestamp is included in
|
|
|
|
|
|
any motion detection and may potentially trigger an alarm if detection
|
2004-02-22 05:48:20 +08:00
|
|
|
|
parameters are very sensitive. The third effect is that as the timestamp is
|
|
|
|
|
|
added to the image at it<69>s native resolution, if the image is scaled then the
|
2004-02-20 22:46:40 +08:00
|
|
|
|
timestamp is scaled also. This may not be a problem for enlargement but if the
|
|
|
|
|
|
image size is reduced then it may become illegible. This version now allows
|
|
|
|
|
|
you, via the ZM_TIMESTAMP_ON_CAPTURE configuration option, to indicate whether
|
|
|
|
|
|
the timestamps should be added on capture, as before, or only added when the
|
|
|
|
|
|
image is viewed or recorded. Setting it to this later value allows timestamps
|
|
|
|
|
|
to be added to scaled images. This is little performance impact either way.</p>

</span></span>Double Buffered Stills View. The stills view has now been
|
|
|
|
|
|
restructured to allow a double buffering approach. Thus a new image is loaded
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the background and only written to screen when complete. This removes the
|
|
|
|
|
|
refresh flicker that means that the screen blanks periodically however uses
|
|
|
|
|
|
more JavaScript so may not be suitable for all platforms. Whether ZoneMinder
|
|
|
|
|
|
uses double buffering or not is controlled by the ZM_WEB_DOUBLE_BUFFER
|
|
|
|
|
|
configuration option.</p>

|
|
|
|
|
|
length events that could be specified for use in Record or Mocord mode could
|
|
|
|
|
|
sometimes result in events a multiple of that length. So events that were meant
|
|
|
|
|
|
to be 15 minutes long could sometimes be 30 or even 45 minutes. This was
|
|
|
|
|
|
especially the case with monitors that had low frame rates. This is now fixed.</p>

|
|
|
|
|
new configuration option ZM_RECORD_DIAG_IMAGES has been included to allow this.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This option will generate several images for each captured frame in an alarm
|
|
|
|
|
|
including each reference image and a series of images containing the image
|
|
|
|
|
|
differences at various stages in the process. It is not possible to record
|
|
|
|
|
|
these for the image prior to an alarm but those following it are included and
|
|
|
|
|
|
should assist in tuning the zones to provide optimal motion detection.</p>

</span></span>Version Numbering. ZoneMinder version numbers have now changed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is to allow more frequent <20>point<6E> releases which are expected to happen
|
|
|
|
|
|
for instance whenever new language files are included. Previously all releases
|
|
|
|
|
|
had the same version increment so it was difficult to tell the significance of
|
|
|
|
|
|
any particular release. Now the version number is in the <i>x.y.z</i> format
|
|
|
|
|
|
where a change in <i>x</i> signifies a major fundamental or architectural
|
|
|
|
|
|
rework, a change in <i>y</i> will indicate a new release containing incremental
|
|
|
|
|
|
feature changes or fixes recommend to all users and a change in <i>z </i>will
|
|
|
|
|
|
generally mean minor non-functional or critical modifications which would not
|
|
|
|
|
|
be recommended as important to all users. As ZoneMinder has been referred to by
|
|
|
|
|
|
the point release up until now, e.g. .15, .16 etc the next number in that
|
|
|
|
|
|
sequence has been retained for continuity and to avoid having any ambiguity in
|
|
|
|
|
|
version numbers.</p>

|
language files named zm_lang_<i>nn_mm</i>.php which can be created from the

|
|

|
|

up genuine bugs. All the files have been revisited and revised to ensure that a

2005-06-13 19:57:01 +08:00

many of these problems as possible have been eliminated and only the very few

|
|
|
|
|
|
modifying the scale of the streamed feed only the actual feed would change size
|
|
|
|
|
|
and the containing frames and windows would remain the same. This was fine for
|
|
|
|

|
changes to smaller scales but problematic for larger scales. This has been
|
|
|
|
|
|
changed for that the window and frames will now resize appropriately.</p>

previously, Record which continuously records with no analysis and MoCord which

based on the length of the event and the number of frames it contains.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Previously it did not take account of the pre and post event frames and so
|
|
|
|
|
|
passed a much shorter value to the mpeg encoder than it should. This will only
|
|
|
|
|
|
have affected short events encoded with ffmpeg but will have resulted in much
|
|
|
|
|
|
faster frame rates than necessary. This has now been corrected to take the
|
|
|
|
|
|
whole event length into account.</p>

the Berkeley mpeg encoder which was slow and rather limited. ZoneMinder now
|
|
|
|
|
|
supports the ffmpeg encoder as well which is much much faster and makes

generation of MPEG videos at realistic frame rates more of a reality. As ffmpeg

can now also specify additional ffmpeg options via zmconfig.pl.</p>

2005-02-05 06:31:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
greyscale images were stored as JPEG files with a corresponding greyscale
|
|
|
|
|
|
colourspace. This saved a small amount of space but meant that mpeg_encode had
|
|
|
|
|
|
to do a conversion to encode them, and ffmpeg just fell in a heap. Now you can
|
2003-12-14 00:09:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
optionally opt to have greyscale images saved as full 24 bit colourspace images
|
|
|
|
|
|
(they still look the same) at the price of a small penalty in CPU and disk but
|
|
|
|
|
|
allowing you to easily and quickly create MPEG files. This option is one by
|
|
|
|
|
|
default but can be switched off if you do not require any MPEG encoding.</p>

</span></span>Fast RGB diffs <20> Previously ZoneMinder used quite a loose method
|
|
|
|
|
|
for calculating the differences between two colour images. This was basically
|
|
|
|
|
|
averaging the differences between each of the RGB components to get an overall
|
|
|
|
|
|
difference. This is still the default but by setting ZM_FAST_RGB_DIFFS to 'no'
|
|
|
|
|
|
you can now make it calculate the Y (or brightness value) of the pixels and use
|
|
|
|
|
|
the difference between those instead. This will be more accurate and responsive
|
|
|
|
|
|
to changes but is may be slower especially on old machines. There is a slight
|
|
|
|
|
|
double whammy here if you have a YUV palette for capture and set this option
|
|
|
|
|
|
off as the image will be converted to RGB and then partially converted back to
|
|
|
|
|
|
get the Y value. This is currently very inefficient and needs to be optimised.</p>

capture rate. This allows you to limit the amount of hits a network camera gets
|
|
|
|
|
|
or to reduce the system load with many cameras. It also works with multi-port
|
|
|
|
|
|
cards and limiting the capture rate on one camera allows the spare FPS to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
allocated to other devices. For instance with two cameras and no throttle, I
|
|
|
|
|
|
get about 4FPS each. Throttling one to 2FPS allows the other to operate at 6FPS
|
|
|
|
|
|
so you can allocate your capture resources accordingly. This limiting can be
|
|
|
|
|
|
disabled while alarms are occurring as a global option in zmconfig.pl.</p>

window that is opened is just a regular browser window and not in the context

of a proper ZoneMinder web interface. Thus it comes up too big usually (not a

major issue) and also things like 'Delete' don't work as it wants to do things
|
|
|
|
|

to its parent (which is more of a major issue).</p>
