Very strange, here is the output of mine:

See how it increments by 5 seconds for each file? Yours increments by several minutes… Will need to think about how this could happen, no idea what is going on here.

Edit: One thing that comes to mind is, ffmpeg can only create segments properly if the stream is creating keyframes at regular intervals. Is this something you can change in your camera settings? See here for more info: https://superuser.com/a/692737

My camera is using variable Bitrate & Zipstream (Axis’s own compression). I disabled Zipstream now.
What’s interesting is that I don’t have recordings (video) in my zone, only screenshots generated in media folder. In case of long movement outside my zone I used to have video recordings.

And still, with configuration you provided, I think I need to mention for camera:

object_detection:
  interval: 0.25
  labels: 
     - label: person
       confidence: 0.4

Because with the one you provided while no label is appointed labels: [] I don’t see labels on detected objects at all. Neither within zone, nor beyond it.
Cars that pass beyond my zone1 are still detected, but now are not labeled.

123

Hmm okay, but to stop persons from triggering recordings outside of your zone you need

object_detection:
  interval: 0.25
  labels: 
     - label: person
       confidence: 0.4
       triggers_recording: false
124

With this config I faced the situation when neverending recording began (now recording despite no motion). Viseron “sees” standing cars and detects them, and recording never stops…

Again, this is not within my Zone… Looks like recorder reacts to object_detection settings set for Camera (and corresponding zone), but records all screen.

When I see logs I still notice:

No matter how hard I tried, only selected Zone recordng & object detection doesn’t work :(…

I’m gonna run some tests, ill get back to you. What you’re trying to achieve should be possible.

For me this config works. As soon as i enter my zone the recording starts. When i leave the zone the recording stops

The difference between my config and yours is the object_detection block under the camera.

I cant do anything about your issues with the segments though, that is entirely handled by ffmpeg and if it cant create the segments properly you need to tweak your camera to send more frequent keyframes.

Finally, it works! Thanks! It was not easy to guess the sequence of parameters to make it work as I wanted :slight_smile:

But still have no idea what setting in my cam I need to adjust to avoid this:

Same thing for another camera (both are working perfectly with NVR, Milestone XProtect, and so on). What can FFMPEG dislike?

Looks like there’s some issue between FFMPEG & H264 streams.
Now I switched BackYard cam to MJPEG and segments operation is OK, while FrontYard is still in H264, and there are issues…

But H264 file size is much smaller. Maybe I need to add some parameter to FFMPEG to avoid this error?

@roflcoopter

Can it be the problem of FFMPEG itself? Maybe it needs to be recompiled?
I am using 4 cameras, and result is all same. I fixed “P-frames” (Keyframes), nothing affects the error.

I googled moov atom not found and every occasion is linked with corrupted MP4 source, in my case it does not look like unreadbale, though in Media Player it’s impossible to jump to specific time in the timeline.

131

I am using h264 streams and those are working fine for me.

whats the output of ffprobe -loglevel error -skip_frame nokey -select_streams v:0 -show_entries frame=pkt_pts_time -of csv=print_section=0 <rtsp://your_camera_url_here> ?

Let it run for a while and send me the timestamps.

Edit: Also, P-frames is not the same as keyframes as per my understanding. You should look for I-frames. I dont own Axis cameras but google suggests changing a setting called GOP

132

Here is the result:

Interesting fact is that sometimes (more often) segments are concatenated without problems, but from time to time I get the ERROR as above for the same camera. Can’t understand the reason…

135

does it properly output 5 second segments if you exec into the container and run ffmpeg -hide_banner -loglevel info -c:v h264_cuvid -rtsp_transport tcp -i rtsp://root:[email protected]:554/axis-media/media.amp?streamprofile=viseron -f segment -segment_time 5 -segment_format mp4 -reset_timestamps 1 -strftime 1 -c copy -an /segments/FrontYard/%Y%m%d%H%M%S.mp4 ?

for me, this is the output:

In my case it doesn’t work (maybe parameters are wrong?):

Maybe try changing -rtsp_transport tcp to rtsp_transport udp?
You can also turn up the logging of ffmpeg to debug and see if that gives you better information.

You’re gonna have to play around with the ffmpeg command til you find whats causing it, i cant be of much help since i dont have access to your camera unfortunately

138

@roflcoopter
Found one peculiarity in Viseron.
When motion is discovered within a Zone (in my case it’s moving IR light from PTZ Camera) and simultaneously a person (in my case it’s an object of interest) is discovered beyond Zone, an object trigger starts and I see MQTT notification (and recorder starts). It does not happen in 100% cases, but in evening time I notice such behavior more & more.

P.S> Could you please specify how you grab picture of particular Zone (in my case with Person detected) and send notification with it? In my case I plan to use notify.telegram.

139

Object detection will always run on the entire frame, regardless of which zone the motion is registered in.

Right now you cant grab a picture of the zone, but this can probably be added. I would appreciate it if you could open a feature request on gothub so i can track it more easily

140

OK, I will, thanks!
I’m OK with the picture of entire frame. Would you please explain how you use automation to send the picture of entire frame when object detection is triggered in my Zone of interest?
I’m about to use Telegram notification to send me the picture, in particular.
Thanks!
