zmfilter.pl - Man Page

ZoneMinder tool to select events and perform actions on them

Synopsis

zmfilter.pl [-f <filter name>,--filter=<filter name>] [--filter_id=<filter id>] [--daemon] | -v, --version

Description

This script performs a specified database query to select recorded events and performs specified actions on them such as email reporting, deleting, moving, etc.  If the --daemon option is given it will remain resident, repeating the query and applying actions.  This is normally managed by zmdc.pl however it can be used manually as well.

  --daemon                                 - Causes zmfilter.pl to stay running endlessly repeating the filter(s).
  -v, --version                            - Print ZoneMinder version
