No Recordings found

[LexaeusIV]

Hi, even after nearly an hour the System does not find any recordings, even though the segments folder has around 1200 files and 700mb of recordings.

What could be the Problem?

every camera is setup like this

ffmpeg:
  camera:
    camera_1:  # This value has to be unique across all cameras
      name: Reolink_RCL510A_1
      host: 192.168.178.11
      port: 554
      path: /h264Preview_01_main
      username: Viseron
      password: Total secure password
      recorder:
        continuous:  # Example of setting a max size of 10 GB for this individual camera
          max_size:
            gb: 100

the rest ist like this

darknet:
  object_detector:
    cameras:
      camera_1:  # Attach detector to the configured camera_1 above
        fps: 1
        labels:
          - label: person
            confidence: 0.75
            trigger_event_recording: true

      camera_2:  # Attach detector to the configured camera_2 above
        fps: 1
        labels:
          - label: person
            confidence: 0.75
            trigger_event_recording: true

      camera_3:  # Attach detector to the configured camera_2 above
        fps: 1
        labels:
          - label: person
            confidence: 0.75
            trigger_event_recording: true


## You can also use motion detection
mog2:
  motion_detector:
    cameras:
      camera_1:
        fps: 1

      camera_2:  # Attach detector to the configured camera_2 above
        fps: 1

      camera_3:  # Attach detector to the configured camera_2 above
        fps: 1


## To tie everything together we need to configure one more component.
nvr:
  camera_1:  # Run NVR for camera_1
  camera_2:  # Run NVR for camera_2
  camera_3:  # Run NVR for camera_3
#  camera_4:  # Run NVR for camera_4
# Now you can restart Viseron and you should be good to go!

the docker log only states this error

The default for darknet is to only scan on motion only (scan_on_motion_only). Maybe try setting that to false?

In my case I have that set to false but I am using a different object detector and have other settings as well.

If there are performance issues with that approach and you want to trigger object detection on motion you will need to look at another root cause.

Tested it, still no recordings found sadly..

I got the motion detector to work, but in the web interface i get the "The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported." message... also it seems to record 24/7 but i just cant watch it on the webserver.... Strange...

What did you do to get the motion detector to work?

For issue with media format, maybe this will help. Scroll to top of thread to see if issue is related.

I just redit thewhole config and only fiddlet with the camera_n modules and that helped, but pinned up to 30 of my E5-2680V4 cores to 100% all the time. So i set the whole NVR project asside until the rest of my House is complete and i have more time for it.
