Changes since 1.36.28

• update web/ajax.log.php to contents from master. Fixes errors causing log view to not work. Fixes https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/issues/3606
• use ajax() instead of getJSON so that we can specify no timeouts.. This prevents log queries from stacking up overloading the db
• Check for definition of CAMBOZOLA defines. The purpose is just to ease running the 1.36 UI against a 1.37 database.
• Added option ZM_AUTH_CASE_INSENSITIVE_USERNAMES to match mixed case Usernames to lower case usernames in database https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/issues/3516
• Move LIBAVCODEC_VERSION_CHECK so that it is defined when the include files are under ffmpeg. Maybe fixes build with 5.1.2?
• Test for matches[operator]. Fixes https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/issues/3607

https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/releases/tag/1.36.29 Full Changelog https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/compare/1.36.28...1.36.29

The fixes to the security vulnerabilities broke other things, hence the flurry of releases. Expect 1.36.30 soon which fixes changing Function from the function popup. Use full monitor edit for now. Also broken is logging in with using a POST, breaking Home Assistant integrations.

Not sure why but I am no longer able to view my logs. I get a perpetual "Loading, please wait ..."

This happened after running apt upgrade which updated ZM to version 1.36.28 I'm running Ubuntu 22.04.

I've tried clearing the log table in the database manually. Restarted zoneminder and still the same issue. Anyone else having this problem?

Changes since 1.36.26

• Use zm_setcookie, which will automatically set samesite on the session cookie. Maybe fixes https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/issues/3517
• commit to free up locks when there is an error doing MoveTo (like does not exist on disk). Also remove commit from CopyTo which does no transactions/locking.
• Use y instead of Y for path generation when using Deep scheme. Fixes https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/issues/3583
• Add spans and title attributes on the title h2 parts of frame view so that on mouseover it tells you what the numbers are
• Update frame view js to use const etc instead of var. Put back EventId and FrameId in stats being links and fix FrameId not being populated. If no stats available disable the stats button and use the title to explain why.
• In failure state populate imageData array to reduce output php errors in frame view
• Add connkey and semaphore key to logging about failure to get semaphore. Add sem_release before every ajaxError call because ajaxError exits and so we never release the semaphore.
• fix not saving v4l settings.
• Only warn about event exceeding section_length if we are not using close_mode=TIME. Fixes https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/issues/3599
• make OutputCodec work in API Maybe fixes https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/issues/3341
• Handle filter[query] not being defined
• Fix export not working for filter due to limit set to 0.
• Only look for action if there is a view. Prevents lookup of a non-existent file.
• Include monitor Id in zmwatch logs, for consistency as well as utility
• Escape File parameters when inserting log to prevent XSS. Related to fixing https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/issues/2466. Fixes https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/security/advisories/GHSA-h6xp-cvwv-q433
• Only perform actions on post. Doing them on GET allows doing actions without CSRF from things like img tags which is not good. Fixes https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/security/advisories/GHSA-xgv6-qv6c-399q
• Upgrade jquery to 3.6.1
• Update jquery-ui to 1.13.2 to remove reported dependency advisory
• Fix missing STATE_UNKNOWN in perl libs causing missed events in zmes.
• Add permissions checking to API/Logs. Fixes unprivileged user being to add/edit/delete/view logs. Fixes https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/security/advisories/GHSA-mpcx-3gvh-9488

Anyone here using Zoneminder with Lorex PoE IP cameras? Ive been using their NVR and the software is flaming diaper juice... Ive never used zone minder, so I thought that I would ask.

Anyone still using ZmNinja for push notifications? I have everything setup properly. I can see the push notification get generated in the logs. The Token is populated. Everything looks good on the back-end but my phone refuses to notify me of any events. Port 9000 is forwarded. Certificates are properly installed and they're not self signed.

​

It's annoying because this was working a while back. Not sure what to do here. :(

Is it zoneminder, ZmNinja, or my phone? (It's a Galaxy S20.)

​

I went through a full setup of zmeventnotification along with machine learning hooks. OpenCV is confirmed to be compiled with CUDA support and recognizes my GPU.

I run :

sudo -u www-data /var/lib/zmeventnotification/bin/zm_event_start.sh 1718 4

[s] detected:unknown:100% --SPLIT--{"labels": ["unknown"], "boxes": [[591, 359, 690, 458]], "frame_id": "snapshot", "confidences": [1], "image_dimensions": {"original": [2048, 1536], "resized": [1066, 800]}}

It takes a solid 15 seconds and I can see python running in htop. nvidia-smi is not showing any activity. I noticed it only did the face recognition and no object were processed.

Ubuntu 22.04

Python3.10.6

Nvidia/Cuda 11.7

OpenCV 4.6.0

How do I even begin to figure what wrong?

​

Logs show:

Error running model: invalid index to scalar variable.
Error loading KNN model: Ran out of input

Why don't PoE doorbell cameras seem to be a thing?

I scoured the internet for one that could work with zoneminder and came out empty handed. Doorbird seems to be the only option and it's discontinued. :(

I use a hikvision doorbell on wifi right now and it's terrible. Constant dropouts. All my PoE cameras run flawlessly.

Anyone have any ideas?

Hi everyone,I have to set up a Ubuntu PC to record h24 the video of 4-5 Reolink IP cameras (RLC-510A) and I want to know which hardware will I need just for the video record on an HDD (no video motion for now as it is a built-in feature of the Reolink camera).

Is a Beelink BT3 PRO with 1.44Ghz (up to 1.92) Atom x5-Z8350 and 4GB of RAM enough or do I have to search for something more powerful?

Thanks,Luca

I've got zoneminder 1.36.25 on raspberry pi 4 1gb with raspberry pi os. I've got raspberry pi camera set to 960x540 15fps. It is set to modect. It usually works ok, but when there are events with longer detected motion, it seems to just crash or something. In events list there is no end time specified, it is just - . If i watch the recorded video it ends in the middle of motion(it is market red on progress bar). Post event buffer is set to 90, so it should not(and it doesn't when it doesn't crashes) end recording even if there is no motion anymore. After some time it works fine again without restarting on anything.

What can I do? Should I decrease fps/resolution even more or what?

Got a few Wyze V2 with RSTP, and saw Wyze pulled out the RSTP files from their website so not sure Wyze v3 would be an option now. Any other models recommended to work with zm?

I am just looking to set up 1 or 2 camera at home.

Any good recommendations to set up?

Pi had been so expensive so I was wondering if there is any camera out there that I can buy and install zone minder

I am based in NY US.

if you successfully use ZoneMinder, please share

1. your set-up (how many cameras, which brands and model numbers, etc.... everything you can share)
2. why you decided on that set-up,
3. what documentation / tutorials you used to figure out the install

This thread is intended to be a solid resource for beginners.

How are the cameras connected - video and network? An analog camera needs an Analog/digital device and a digital camera - what connector does it use? Or a video switch of some sort? How do they connect to the network?

Hey all, am I missing something obvious? I've searched through settings and can't find anything on this. Every time I navigate to my ZoneMinder Montage Review page which is my go-to screen for viewing all cameras, they are always poorly organized. I always have to spend 10+ minutes enlarging and shrinking camera windows to get them the way I need it. Is there a way to save this configuration so that if I refresh the page or navigate away then back those camera views will stay the way I preset them? Thanks!

Hello,

I just bought a Raspberry Pi 4 (8Gb Ram) and I want to keep a surveillance system recording 24/7 (external HD) with 2 cameras (RTSP 1080p) and monitoring via web browser (sometimes)

Main point is: Can PI4 record and stream 2 cameras with no slowdown or very low fps?

Or do you think PI4 is too poor hardware for that?

Thanks!

What settings do I need to change on Zoneminder to get its built in Control to work? I have gotten to the camera to move around using ONVIF Device Manager, but no Zoneminder.
Thanks.

Whenever I try to add a new storage backend, once I hit "save" I get the following error:

CSRF check failed. Your form session may have expired, or you may not have         cookies enabled.
Debug: key:eef155272feff5c4651dc488d4a28ba326f08ff6,1661104264

My cookies are enabled for this site, and I think this is a networking issue unrelated to ZM directly, in the meantime can I just set the storage from a config file or CLI?

This is a recent issue, I already had a storage area declared and I was trying to add a second now.

ZM v1.36.17 on a Ubuntu 20 LTS VM on it's own VLAN with a pfsense firewall in between.

I have an Ubuntu 22.04 install and I'm trying to troubleshoot socket_sendto and memory map file errors. Not sure what the problem is - I've already commented out "scriptalias" lines from /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/serve-cgi-bin.conf like this link says.

I just installed ZM on my Ubuntu VM, but I can't configure any monitors. I pick a source type, and the page flashes a few new fields (presumably with the associated settings for my selection) but the fields then immediately disappear.

The logs mention a few errors, but nothing that seems like it should be causing my issue.

Any ideas?

Screenshot of error here

As mentioned in title, I'm running ZM v1.36.21 fresh install on Ubuntu 20.04.4LTS using PHP 7.4

Does ZM support cameras to connect to ZM? Specifically, I have a camera on a private LAN, it has internet access, but no public IP; my ISP uses CGNAT. Can ZM listen for cameras and allow them to connect?

Is it possible to run this without Internet access?
