Hints, Tips, & Tricks
- I can only see six (6) streams in a montage. The seventh get dropped.
- I saw this problem in ZoneMinder and Shinobi while using FireFox. It turns out that FireFox defaults to only allowing 6 streams per server.
- This can be fixed by going to about:config and changing the following settings
- browser.cache.check_doc_frequency 3 -> 1 (this causes FireFox to check for a new version of the page every time it is loaded)
- browser.cache.disk.enable True -> False (this disables FireFox's ability to cache page content to the hard drive)
- network.http.max-connections -> raise to 100
- network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy -> raise to 100
- network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server -> raise to 100 (this was originally 6 and probably the root cause of my problem)
