I install it with /usr not /usr/local so no... it didn't work for moi!!! It works for me, after a bit of trial and error. The thing not to forget about with 64-bit is that the lib directory is /usr/lib64 not /usr/lib. When creating your symlinks in accordance with the directions in README-turbo.txt ...

Some cunning diagnostics revealed that line 844 of zm_actions.php calls the function socket_create(). This function is only available if you compile PHP with --enable-sockets (in Gentoo set the use flag "sockets"). On my system this was failing, and sure enough, I had compiled PHP without this ...

I am having the same problem, ZM 1.23.3. Apache logs show that the commands are being sent to index.php, and using zmcontrol.pl I can issue the control commands on the server from the command line, but all the buttons on the web interface do nothing. No solution yet, however one "gotcha" for me was ...

New support for PWC PTZ Logitech Quickcam Orbit / Sphere etc

I have managed to find time to knock up a quick script that will control the pan/tilt of a Quickcam Orbit using the PWC devfs interface. It is based on the ncs370 script (for whatever reason). Control Capabilities: Name = Logitech Orbit Type = Local Command = zmcontrol-pwc.pl Move Options: Can Move ...

Here is your solution... in the folder - /sys/class/video4linux/video0 there is a file called "pan_tilt" If you write the desired coordinates of the camera to this file, e.g. echo 1000 2000 >pan_tilt The camera will point to that location even while Zoneminder has the device open. All you need is to ...
