martinanth, SELINIX is off. It was turned off when I first installed the OS. Maximum FPS and Alarm Maximum FPS are blank. Camera is set to 6 FPS. I believe the BIOS does have virtualization enabled. Should this be off or on? The camera appears to do something every few hours to cause this. It fails ...

martinanth,

Another good thought but no, not the problem. At the moment I'm testing with only one camera and it is aimed at objects that do not move. It was in monitor mode so ZM machine had nearly zero load.

martinanth, That's a great tip!!! Something for me to remember when I do get this working and set the box up for live service. However, it's not whats causing my problem. I have iptables off and my two other IP cameras never miss a beat. However, the other two are set up as remote and this one is ...

Add ?tcp to the end of the url to force ffmpeg to use tcp. This should stop the smearing.

PacoLM, No not a Foscam. It's a Chinese 2MP VGB101-IP. I love the camera if only I could keep it connected... This camera has such a great image and is adjustable 2.8-12mm. It does great at night also. I'd like to use more of these if I can get it working. I'm ready to offer a bounty for help ...

I'm still working on this one but it seems the camera does something every few hours that causes ZM to loose the feed. VLC does the same thing. However, If I manually close and open the connection it comes right back. Maybe ZM should have a feature where, if a feed is lost, close the connection and ...

I happened to be watching the ZM log when my monitor went red. There was nothing unusual happening in the log then the following appeared as fast as my browser could scroll it: 1380811951.497372 zmc_m1 3541 -2 ERR Unable to read packet from stream 0: error -1 zm_ffmpeg_camera.cpp 215 I sure would ...

CyberAng3l,

I'm having the problem where my high res monitor goes red after several hours also. I am using mmap. How did you resolve the issue?

Thanks,
TD

I've searched and have not found any hints on why this is happening. I have 3 monitors set up on a 3GHz Quad core with 4G RAM. One is a 2MP IP using ffmpeg. The other two are local attached to a Kodicom 8800. All are set to monitor only. After several hours, the IP display turns solid red. Looking ...

I'm new here so I may have made a mistake earlier. I thought I posted this question but cannot find it so attempting again. I am trying to set up a 2MP outdoor camera. I have it working with VLC with: rtsp://192.168.0.71/user=admin&password=admin_channel=1_stream=0.sdp However, when setting it up as ...
