The Unforgiven (RC1) Pre-release
Pre-release

Thank You to Those who have Contributed

First, a big thank you to those who have contributed their time to this project, or who have contributed financially. The money donated to the project is primarily used to maintain an Internet presence. The donated funds are not used as income for our developers. We do occasionally assign funds to open issues through Bountysource, but those funds can be claimed by anyone who does the work. We all, from those that respond to questions in the forums to those who develop the underlying code, are effectively volunteers, each with our own $dayjobs. We participate because we want to be part of an open-source, community project, which brings me to my next point.

We know from our telemetry data that ZoneMinder has an extremely large user base. In just one week, we received 20k ip addresses, actively running ZoneMinder, and those sites are just the sites who have the telemetry data enabled. On the flip side to this, there are comparatively few people who contribute back to the project. This puts us in a perpetual situation where we cannot keep up whether that be responding in the forums, writing new code, fixing existing code, writing documentation, etc. We are looking for help from mature individuals who understand what it means to be part of a team project. To become part of the team, you don't need to know how to do a particular task, write code, etc. Rather, you simply need a strong desire to learn and interact with the other members.

Bug Fix Release

While there are a few new features, this release focuses on bug fixes and improvements to existing code.

Here is the short list of changes:

  • Fixed an issue where the red outline did not appear in images with blob detection enabled
  • The new ONVIF probe should now properly detect many more ONVIF compliant cameras
  • A few security fixes were implemented to help mitigate malicious activity
  • Various updates to the documentation including an emphasis to use the "ffmpeg" source type for modern IP cameras. Only use the other source types if there is a problem using ffmpeg.
  • New Hikvision & Keekon PTZ control scripts have been added
  • Since the amount of free /dev/shm memory is critical, this is now shown at the top of the web console.

A Notice about the next release following 1.30.2

We have had a number of big ticket items in the works for a while now, and after a recent discussion, we have decided to implement some, or perhaps all, of these major features following the release of 1.30.2. I won't name there here, because the list of features we deploy might change. What I do want to emphasize, however, is that the release which contains these new features will need to run its course to find and work out any bugs which will likely be introduced. So if you are running a production system and don't want reliability to suffer, then I would recommend you upgrade to 1.30.2, but skip the next release after that.

As always, here is the long list of changes:

The Day that Never Comes

Important Changes!

This release has additional Perl dependencies associated with Onvif discovery and the telemetry daemon. If you are installing from a package, the package maintainer should take care of this for you.

As mentioned in the previous release notes, these features have been removed from the project:

  • Autotools – Build using cmake instead
  • Mobile Skin – Use a mobile app, such as zmNinja
  • XML Skin – Use the new API instead

Last minute changes

  • Fixed an issue zmvideo.pl which affected emailing and exporting video

Changes Included with RC2

  • An issue with the latest libjpeg-turbo 1.5.0 was discovered and fixed
  • Update Ubuntu and Debian documentation
  • Additional enhancements and fixes to zmonvif-probe
  • Zones were incorrectly reporting a size of 100% when they were smaller. This has been fixed.
  • Fixed an warning message from zmupdate.pl

New Features

Onvif discovery is now enabled by default. This features increases build time, but the benefit is auto-discovery of any Onvif compliant camera. Please note that this feature is still experimental. It has not been tested in a large environment or with a large variety of cameras. Using this tool is largely self explanatory, but if you are looking for documentation it can be found on the @altaroca ’s blog site. As time allows, we will bring the documentation over to our readthedocs site. Volunteers to do this work are welcome.

ZoneMinder now has a telemetry deamon which collects information about your machine. This was done to learn how our user base uses ZoneMinder, the most common system size, choice of distro, cpu, memory, and a couple of other things. This will help us focus our efforts on what features get used the most. Since this was written in Perl, you can easily see for yourself what information is being sent. Note that this feature defaults to ON. If this is not what you want, then you can turn it off under Options. In a future release, we plan to include an install wizard, which will prompt the user about this feature.

Have you ever wished for the motion detection zones to be live, rather than a static image? Well they are now! Creating or modifying zones works exactly the same as before, but with the live stream running in the background. If you need to freeze the stream, there is a Pause button at the bottom of the window to do just that.

A new feature called Montage Review has been added. This can be thought of as a modified version of the original montage feature with features such as "scrubbing" through video. The Montage Review screen has received sufficient testing to be part of the release, but you should still treat this feature as experimental. We expect there to be additional fixes and refinements.

Fade to Black

In Memory of Emmanuel Papin

The ZoneMinder team would like to dedicate this release to Emmanuel Papin. Emmanuel was a significant contributor to this project and even went on to write a license plate plugin. You can view his work here: https://github.com/manupap1/libzoneminder-plugin-openalpr

It is with great sorrow that I must report his passing on August 19, 2015. He will be missed.

Important Feature Deprecation Announcement

The following features are planned to be removed from the ZoneMinder project in a future release:

  • Autotools – Build using cmake instead
  • Mobile Skin – Use a mobile app, such as zmNinja
  • XML Skin – Use the new API instead

Significant New Features and Changes

The ZoneMinder API! This is now the supported way for third party tools and apps to communicate with ZoneMinder. Please contact us if you find anything lacking in the API.

Referred to by us as MultiServer, ZoneMinder now supports the display of cameras attached to multiple ZoneMinder servers via a single web console. Previously, something similar could be done by adding a camera with a url that pointed to another ZoneMinder server. While this worked, it was inefficient, as processing and storage were duplicated across both servers. The new MultiServer feature accomplishes the same thing, but leaves the processing and storage to the server the camera is assigned to. This feature is targeted towards two environments. The first is an enterprise environment where scalability is desired. The second is what I'll call a micro-server environment, where each "server" is something small, such as a Raspberry Pi. Documentation for this new feature can be found under the /docs folder or at http://zoneminder.readthedocs.org .

The option USE_DEEP_STORAGE has been hidden. This option has been enabled as the default for many years. Recently, it was identified that turning this option off resulted in the near immediate deletion of events from the disk. Not good. Consequently, this option can no longer be modified from Options. In the unlikely event that you have a working system not already using deep storage, please contact us so we can get that enabled without loss of your data.

ZoneMinder no longer uses php short open tags.

ZoneMinder has limited ONVIF discovery support, but it must be enabled at build time. We could use someone to build and test this on different makes and models of cameras.

For those using Groups, this feature has been expanded into its own permission group for greater flexibility. This change has a default permission of none or off. Consequently, if you are using Groups, you will need to enable this under each user account.

The libvlc source type should be more stable now. We finally discovered the cause of a rather nasty fault and have fixed it.

Disposable Heroes

We've been saying the next release will be "soon" for some time now. The wait is over.

This minor release brings further improvements to native RTSP support when using a source type of "remote". Newer h264 Foscam cameras should work now. We've made some inroads into getting Grandstream devices to work, but after fixing one issue we immediately ran into another, which has yet to be solved. These devices, along with Trendnet and others, currently experience an RTCP Timeout after streaming video for 10 seconds. We plan to have this fixed in a future release.

The folder location of zm.conf can now be specified at build time.

Instead of patching the source code, package maintainers can now use the /ustils/zmeditconfigdata.sh tool to change any of the values found in the Config dB table prior to building. For details on how to use this tool, execute the script from the command line, with no parameters, to display usage information.

A much improved SELinux policy file has been included for CentOS 6. This file lives under /distros/redhat. Users of zmrepo will automatically get this installed after a yum update to this version of zoneminder. Thanks go to Nate Dobbs for taking the time to do this work.

There are many other small, technical changes that can be viewed from the shortlog:

Release 1.28.0 - Ride the Lightning

This is the first release of ZoneMinder to officially support the newer php found in Ubuntu 14.04. Since Ubuntu 14.10 is right around the corner, preliminary tests indicate ZoneMinder 1.28.0 works with that as well.

Speaking of Ubuntu 14.10, this version of Ubuntu will include the infamous systemd. This replaces the old sysv init system and will require a learning curve for those who have not yet been exposed to it. Nearly all the major Linux distros have migrated to systemd. Why am I mentioning this in the ZoneMinder release notes? Because we have recently added full support for systemd. For details, read #502.

ZoneMinder now requires the polkit package and the URI::Encode perl module.

Be advised that certain default folders have changed. ZM_TMPDIR now defaults to /var/tmp and ZM_SOCKDIR now defaults to /var/run. Be advised that ZoneMinder will not change these values on an existing database. For further details, read #524.

We've fixed an old "shared data size conflict" error that some users on certain 32bit distros experienced when running on hardware that was 64bit capable. For details, see #462.

I've probably forgotten to mention something so here is the shortlog.

Isaac Connor (121):
[9e2d7cf] initial convert to PDO with no testing
[5eb313b] add config lline for DB type
[cd63b0a] add defaults for ZM_DB_TYPE

Release 1.27.0 - Battery

This is an exciting release as we are fixing a number of bugs, as well as releasing a few new features. Notable notables include:

A new skin!

This is the initial release of the 'flat' skin, courteously of Justin Lawrence (@justinlawrence). If you'd like to give it a try, you can do so by changing the ZM_SKIN variable in the options menu, or by appending ?skin=flat to your URL. Please report any bugs with this skin if you choose to use it.

zmcamtool.pl

Previously, there was no easy way to bring in new ptz controls and camera presets into an existing ZoneMinder system. For the non-technical, programming the same camera into a different system usually meant typing everything in by hand again. This new tool makes it possible to import and export these settings to or from a sql file. You can also use this tool to import any new controls or presets into your existing database, which were added to a new version of ZoneMinder. Execute "zmcamtool.pl --help" from the command line for further details.

Docker

This release contains an inital ZoneMinder Dockerfile. Docker, and Dockerfiles, allow you to spin up disposable 'containers', which are essentially self-contained linux virtual machines, each with a specific purpose (such as running ZoneMinder). This feature is an attempt to speed up testing of features and bugs.

This is still in early stages, however more information can be found here.

A new camera source type, libvlc.

Courtesy of @ebarnard! Yes, you can probably guess what this means. If the optional libvlc libraries are installed on your system, ZoneMinder will theoretically be able to stream from any camera the popular VLC media player can stream from. If you own an IP camera that previous versions of ZoneMinder did not support then try this new method. More information is here.
