Re: Black Rectangle of Doom

No, sorry. First of all this is fixed, I think, in the 1.19.x versions. And second the problem was not a missing image, but an image that was completely black. If your apache log is throwing a 404 you probably didn't get your CGI-BIN path right with you were setting things up.

Good luck,

-Jay

"No part content type"?

Great job on the new version. Bug fixes are starting to show. I really like the mpeg mode. But I'm trying Camboloza again to reduce bandwidth. And idea why it only displays: "No part content type" Thanks, -Jay P.S. Please let me know if there are any other outputs that would be helpful. And yes jpeg ...

Re: Black Rectangle of Doom

I figured it out on my system! I had unchecked the "Invert BGR colours to RGB" option on the video tab while tweeking. Rechecked, restarted and all is well. I guess I was expecting garbage and not a black box with that option. Hope it works for you too Ant.

Re: Black Rectangle of Doom

I'm sooo happy to not be the first person to run across this. I am using a WinTV card and had everything working just fine for a day or so. Tweeked some things that appeared to be irrelevent and rebooted. Now all I get is the same black output. xawtv shows the camera and /dev/video0 are still ...

Re: Missing image

Nevermind! I figured it out. I was in low bandwidth mode and being impatient. I guess the first image isn't generated untill after the first timeout. Maybe this should be changed so that the request generates the first image. I noticed that after I waited long enough the first time, I get one stale ...

Missing image

I'm very impressed with ZM! Great job! Everything looks great with Mozilla, but I'm having some headaches with cambozola. I've given up on cambozola for the moment and turned it off. This has caused another problem in IE. The monitor image is missing. On my system, when I go to the Watch page using ...

Re: My binaries just die!

OK, I must have something wrong with my Slackware environment. I'll just start over with Debian.

Re: My binaries just die!

You got me worried with the permissions statement, so I ran over to the server and checked and they are good: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 628145 Mar 12 10:31 zmc* Nothing in the /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog. I confirmed in /etc/syslog.conf that everything lower than warn goes in messages and ...

My binaries just die!

Hello, I'm sure I've overlooked something. I'm running a Slackware 9.0 system, upgraded with a 2.6.3 kernel. The build ran just fine, per the README. But the zmc, zma, ... files that are generated do not run! I'm not sure what's going on. There were no errors during the build and no output makes it ...
