Suppose i posted too soon... The monitor works fine, but looking at zones I have no video (broken image)? also under zones I get this warning: Warning: chdir() [function.chdir]: No such file or directory (errno 2) in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/zoneminder/zm_html_view_zones.php on line 26 Has anyone ...

This worked for me also. In options, changing ZM_PATH_ZMS from /cgi-bin/nph_zms to just /cgi-bin/zms finally brought up my video ..

Thanks,

Bttv works over i2c bus it looks as if algo_bit provides bit-banging..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit-banging

In menuconfig its listed as I2C bit-banging interfaces [CONFIG_I2C_ALGOBIT]

I had the exact same problem....I am pretty sure I have the same card as you too (yellow internal connector?) compile i2c_algo_bit as a module and pass bit_test=1 to it...

modprobe i2c_algo_bit bit_test=1

I have this bttv card.. http://www.jasonh.vispa.com/Card_Front.jpg Ive tried a few card= options with bttv module, 171, 141, 77 ... I either keep getting a broken image in the monitor. Once i got a purple screen. Each time I get shared memory errors in the logs... what is the proper way to set this ...

Is that going to record hours of nothing? my goal is to have the motion dection and then conver that into a time lapse video so I can watch a full day from me being away in a few minutes.

Is there anyway i can create a video from the whole day instead of just one specific event?

thanks

i have 1.22.2 but it boots 2.6.7, there is nothing resembling 2.6.16 in /boot

ok it seems my kodicom card (i think it is) is only supported in 2.6.16.. which the live cd install didnt come with originall, urpmi-ing the new one only screws it up.. so yea with gentoo I had a image in xawtv and tvtime yet zm didnt work, now in mandriva zm works but the cam dosent... super

note... I was able to edit the file since i installed it to hd... couldent seem to unprobe the modules correctly to reprobe bttv with the right card options, so.. i installed to hd, edited the modprobe.conf file, and restarted...

After giving up on ZM+Gentoo Im trying this liveCD. I added the options bttv tuner=-1 card=102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102 in /etc/modprobe.conf which did work in tvtime/xawtv in Gentoo, but now all I get are icons on the desktop and half a green screen, the other half it seems part of a broken ...

I have this bttv 8 chan/8 chip card http://www.jasonh.vispa.com/Card_Front.jpg I bought it off ebay so I am not sure of the model name, except it uses bttv 102 So it works in tvtime! so bttv and the card is setup ..But i get just the broken image square in zm.. heres my logs: First I tried with ...

I am also getting the same thing; just what should be a jpeg in firefox, here are my relavent logs: zmdc.log 03/22/06 13:31:05.370964 zmdc[1655].INF ['zmaudit.pl -c' starting at 06/03/22 13:31:05, pid = 1692] 03/22/06 13:31:09.857489 zmdc[1655].INF ['zmaudit.pl -c' stopping at 06/03/22 13:31:09] 03 ...

I am getting the same thing...?

Ah, my bad.. it was Xgl that I just began playing with. It seems tvtime and Xgl do not play well together just yet. I switched back to normal Xorg and the first input runs well.
