Re: h.264 rtsp ip camera configuration issues - encoding err

Well I got the 720p mode working. I had a corrupt kernel in one of my Amovision cams which I fixed up. I've been pestering Amovision to post firmwares on their site after informiing them how many units I purchased and how irresponsible it was not to have firmwares on their site. I wonder if they ...

Re: h.264 rtsp ip camera configuration issues - encoding err

Re: h.264 rtsp ip camera configuration issues - encoding err

Ok here are the details of what I have. In Zoneminder, I am using ffmpeg to connect to the cam's RTSP stream. Using rtsp://ip_add:554/ch0_1.h264 I am able to get the low-res stream, flawless in fact. problem is that the resolution is 352x192 (although the specs state 352x288, which does not work ...

Re: h.264 rtsp ip camera configuration issues - encoding err

Bite my tongue, the image is horrible. Initially it was great, somehow turned to crap. I'm going to play more with the memory.

Re: h.264 rtsp ip camera configuration issues - encoding err

Got it.

You have to use ffmpeg. Works like a charm. By default, ffmpeg is not installed on vanilla Zoneminder.
the ffmpeg string is the rtsp stream rtsp://IP_Address:554/ch0_0.h264

Increasing the shared memory helps with framing for sure.

Re: h.264 rtsp ip camera configuration issues - encoding err

In /etc/sysctl.conf I increased the size to
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 4294967296

then performed sysctl -p

Unfortunately I still do not get any images.

Re: h.264 rtsp ip camera configuration issues - encoding err

That would be great. I increased my shared memory from 128MB to 1GB. I am hoping that I will be able to get a picture. My symptoms were exactly as yours were. I believe we are having the same problem, just that you moved a step ahead of me. I submitted a trouble ticket with Amovision and even ...

Re: h.264 rtsp ip camera configuration issues - encoding err

Can you tell me what you did to get anything from your Amovision AM-C755? I have a W736 and I have the same initial problem you had. No feed but it seems to be getting something (black screen but it shows a fps). I have Amovision trying to help but they're slow to respond. What was your ...
