<div dir="ltr">If you are bored, would you mind trying the <a href="http://zmtrigger.pl/" target="_blank">zmtrigger.pl</a> plugin? You should be able to start it up and then trigger an alarm event with a telnet connection to port 6802. Even if you don't trigger it, I'm just curious if the <a href="http://zmtrigger.pl/" target="_blank">zmtrigger.pl</a> process dies for you in 10 minutes or less like it does for me. The zmtrigger plug in works for its intended task, it just crashes a lot. I have found others who faced the same symptoms and their cure was to switch to mapped memory. My solution might be as simple as recompiling ZoneMinder for mapped rather than shared. </div>
