morning

hey asker

hi ic0n, how are things?

they are ok.

are you back in canada?

yup.

ok

Iwas just in the states for a week. Going back in January sometime.

ok nice. Jan is a good time to be in CA. Toronto would be a block of ice then, would it not?

well Toronto tends to be not too bad. Just outside the city gets a lot worse. Beign so close to the lake keeps it a few degrees warmer

I thought being close to the lake makes it look like this http://abcnews.go.com/US/incredible-images-show...

well you don't park your car by the lake.. that's just not smart.

yeah

anyone here using zmNinja with push notifications and iOS ? If so, I need beta testers (I have android testers already) https://medium.com/zmninja/breaking-changes-for...

I'm hoping today to stabilise my latest code which gets rid of zma....

good - thats a devil of a process

are you folks still planning on remove zms sometime? if so, what do you plan to replace it with?

First off, I'm the only dev left... so I get to make all the decisions :)

At the moment I am thinking of merging it into zmc as a separate thread, turning it into more of a daemon

have the others officially signed off or its a general lull?

not officially, which is the problem.

so what is the key benefit of merging it into zmc? zms today is a very thin shim anyway

and If I recall correctly, it handles the control POST messages does it not?

the benefit of merging it into a thread is that it can access any of the live stream packets, including the h264 ones...

control POST? as in ptz? Nope.

okay

so basically merging it doesn't need SHM buffer management or will that still be required?

mmap

shm will shrink, won'

won't need all the raw frames in shm.

that's long term though.

ok so right how, its just about getting zms as a process eliminated and the benefits will come later. given there is currently one zmc per monitor running, how will this work with your multi-port apache add?

no changes anytime soon. BTW zms is going to be aroudn for a long time. At the moment I am getting rid of zma.

each zmc will listen on a port just like my current hack. it will also have a websocket...

nice

"First off, I'm the only dev left" what happened??? :O

no you?
