Re: Conexant card configuration help (NCP3200v1 i think)
I probably am in over my head. I'm not a linux guru. I wouldn't call myself a beginner, I regularly install various linux/bsd on my Proxmox hypervisor to test run various services like Nagios, Zoneminder, ClearOS, etc. So my level of knowledge on this is relative i guess. So I guess thats why I have ...

Still working on this project. I got all my cams wired to a power bank in my server closet so they are all hot and ready to go. I know some of those cameras worked in the past, so I'm pretty sure its just a matter of getting the kernal issues worked out with this card.

Re: Assistance with Conexant Security BNC Card
On this link I found while digging it states that I might have to patch the kernal for 16 video inputs. https://wiki.zoneminder.com/UDP_Technology_NCP3200v2 It says something about using a patch for the 3.14 kernal. Should I be using an older version of Zoneminder to work with this card maybe? I'm ...

Re: Assistance with Conexant Security BNC Card
Doing a little more looking around on the forums I think I need to create and edit the /etc/modprobe.d/bttv.conf file and enter in some data. According to the NCP3000v2 site, I need to enter in: options bttv gbuffers=32 card=158,158,158,158,158,158,157,157 According to this: https://wiki.zoneminder ...
