Comment:

 Looks like you have an invalid value set for the ZM_SHM_KEY setting. Only
 the first 4 digits are used the last 4 should all be 0's. You have
 0x7a6d2000 it should be set to 0x7a6d0000 which is the default anyway.

 I guess ZM masks out the last 4 digits and so ignores the extra 2 but
 MythZoneMinder assumes the setting stored in the DB is correct and uses
 that value literally. It should really mask out the last four digits like
 ZM does I guess.

 You can easily fix this by going into ZM's options page and on the
 'system' tab correct the ZM_SHM_KEY setting so the last four digits are
 all zero's. You will have to restart mythzmserver after changing that
 setting.
