update to the update =) everything is working swimmingly except for the streaming part. I guess the camera path doesn't matter because there wasn't one loaded on the preset and it doesn't appear to matter. It records perfectly and the stills look great. I just need to figure out how to view a stream ...

Good question declang. I'm in the same spot. I can view the stills ,etc but i was under the impression i could view a live stream, which i can't do for some reason. When i set function to Monitor both the function and source change colors to yellow.

Are yours doing the same?

having the exact same problem. Running Ubuntu server 9.04 with ZM version 1.24.2. Have some ACTi cameras model 5601 set up just as described in this post and this post:http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12344&highlight=acti. One thing the preset did not do was set a remote host path ...

just tried the preset it filled in everything except the remote host path and here is what it looks like: remote protocol: RTSP remote method: RTP/Unicast remote host name: 10.9.16.40 remote host port: 7070 remote host path: rtsp://10.9.16.40:7070/tmp/cam.avi -- still nothing in ZM (source is in red ...

update I called supercircuits and spoke with a tech again. He told me this time that those cameras (pc33cipdn-4g) use the ACTI protocols. so..time to scavenge the forums for the acti image path script and i should be good to go. If someone knows it off hand and wants to place it here in this thread ...

Guys thanks for the help so far. Curtis the path you gave me worked in VLC! Still not getting any video to ZM. Here are my settings remote protocol: RTSP remote method: RTP/RTSP (I also tried RTP/Unicast) remote host name: 10.9.16.40 remote host port: 7070 remote host path: rtsp://10.9.16.40/mpeg4 ...
