i have been setting them to 320x 240 yuv420p and ntsc -- that was the settings for 1.21.3 -- i can get access to a 1.21.3 zm -- is there a file i can compare to for diff's -- not sure on the kernel i could try a zm upgrade on the 1.21.3 but it is a 2.4.27. the camera is a stock commercial dome i ...

a couples of things what do you have for /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax and shmall these are your shared memory values have you unchecked or set false ZM_STRICT_VIDEO_CONFIG on debian with a clean apache2 it is easier to move zms to /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ and set the permissions -- not finding zms will give the ...

here is the v4l-info dump how would i change the settings for zm -- frame lines looks a little suspect there seems to be a lot if differences in the format between a working 2.4.27 zm with a type 77 and this setup with a 2.6.12 & PV150 type 98 where would i find the card spec's -- google did not ...
