I orginally installed Zoneminder 1.25.X on Ubuntu 12.04 using there repositories and ran into a roadblock using the Bluecherry BC-08240A - 8 port video, 8 port audio realtime hardware compression card. The card requires the solo6010-dkm driver which uses ('extended' layouts) http://community ...

I found this on the bluecherry site and have confirmed these findings ('extended' layouts) in my probing of the settings for the card/camera. http://community.bluecherrydvr.com/responses/using_the_display_port_on_bluecherry_hardware_compression_cards When I run use: vlc v4l:// :v4l-vdev="/dev/video6 ...

I would like to use IP camera viewer that is available for the android. http://hit-mob.com/ip-cam-viewer-android/ When setting up the application, it has make: zoneminder model: zoneminder Camera Server host ip: dyndns.mydomain.com ...

Can you tell me everything that you did. I am in the process of purchasing 4 of those cameras and wanted to know what roadblocks I may come up against. All your advice will be appreciated. thanks

Give us specifics on what your issue are. Even though you have one of the supported resolution it still could be the issue.
