So having pretty much success, still a niggle though..... I have 2 x USB web cams, 1 Airlink101 IP Webcam and a single port on my BT848 card working. The BT848 card is 4 port. I can't seem to get port 2 to work though. In fact If I add a cam as second channel, it displays the image from the first ...

Hmm, I have another USB2 card in there so may try swapping 2nd cam to there.

RDMELIN - If I do a full install to hard disk, will I get terminal access and Sudo?

I am assuming this is not just a 'demo' iso?

Cheers

Oh

So is it a known problem that multiple usb webcams can't be used? Are there ANY known webcams that can? The quality on the first camera is pretty cool sadly.

I know have a webcam, an IP cam and an analogue cam working.

Thanks, How do I get a terminal session going though without doing a full install? On my screen I only have Install and My Documents?? I used /dev/video1 and that worked a treat, thanks. But heres a strange thing............ if I add a second usb webcam and add it as /dev/vodeo0 device 1 ( first usb ...

I have managed to get an IP camera and a single USB Webcam working quite easy. I cannot get the second webcam working -or- a port on a BT848 4 port card to work. As I have no terminal access ( And wouldn't really know what commands to use ) I can't find out what devices channels the 2nd Webcam or ...

It is an older camera....

I just tried the arch CD and it worked straight away :-/ Thanks

Let me see if I can get some other cameras working

Hi All, I was having probs with a UBUNTU install so decided to go for a Debian Lenny. Install went well. However when I add my 'generic' webcam I don't get any image. If I use xawtv the image is fine. Logs don't seem to tell me much except... Jun 4 12:59:07 cctv2 zmc_dvideo0[6743]: INF [Starting ...

Sorry :-( When I try and playback I get no errors in the logs ( Using tail -f messages ) The screen I get makes me think like there is no image/video file there. When a motion is captured the logs state this Jun 1 21:49:22 cctv zma_m5[10338]: INF [Airlink1: 191 - Left alarm state (23) - 103(83 ...

Hi,

When I see an event alert and click view, a new window opens up but all I get in the video screen is a white square with a red X in the top left hand side. Any ideas?

Cheers

I have installed the ubunto iso as listed above and I have it working ( Although can't get USB webcams working )

How do I turn that annoying 'donate' popup window off? Doesn't matter what I click it keeps coming back

Cheers

Hi Guys, I know there is a plethora of posts about USB webcams but I still can't get mine to work. If I do a zmu -d /dev/video0 -q -v I get a valid response so it can talk to the camera. However when I setup the monitor and try and view I get a black square. in /var/log/messages I see May 28 00:37 ...

Hi, I see the DVD ISO at the start of this list but are there any proven ISO's out there of just the latest version of ZM and no VOIP? Looking to build a home server and not too good on linux so would love to just stick a CD in the drive and build a machine with the bits already installed. Any URLs ...
