Well that last one is easy to fix: From the zm main web page there is an Options link that lets you specify all kind of stuff. Under the Paths tab there is a PATH_ZMS options which control the path to the zms streaming server. I'm surprised that's not taken care of with the configure script, but ...

I looked at the source for the page that displays the image and it shows var streamSrc = "http://192.168.1.108/ cgi-bin/nph-zms[/b]?mode=jpeg&monitor=6&scale=100&maxfps=5&buffer=1000 It should be cgi-bin /zm /nph-zms I used --with-cgidir=/srv/www/cgi-bin/zm and that shows in zm.conf and where things ...

The call that was crashing zmc when using v4l2 was this in zm_local_camera.cpp:385 if ( vidioctl( vid_fd, VIDIOC_S_FMT, &v4l2_data.fmt ) < 0 ) Fatal( "Failed to set video format: %s", strerror(errno) ); I changed the Fatal to a Warning and now I can use v4l2. I now get messages like the following in ...

Here's something odd: The result of v4l-info shows that this is really a v4l2 device. There isn't much available with v4l version 1. I'm starting to wonder if somehow I compiled ZoneMinder wrong since I get that signal 6 when trying to set the interface to version 2... sudo v4l-info /dev/video1 ...

I'm having some issues getting this thing to work on an OpenSuse 11.3 laptop (kernel 2.6.34-12) , ZoneMinder 1.24.2 although I think I'm pretty close. The camera works with vnc, or livcview zmu only works with the -V1 option (which is kind of odd because from what I was reading around this camera ...

problem solved. cgi-bin directory patch was wrong. Now that you mention it, I ran into something similar: Originally I pointed to the root of the web server tree when specifying htdocs and cgi-bin paths to the configure script. Then I thought better of it and reconfigured/recompiled/reinstalled ...

I am using a SuSe 10.1 linux with zomeminder 1.22.2 What driver? I have the same camera, also on SuSE 10.1 and I had to compile the driver (OV511) myself since it didn't come with the distribution. (A DVD disk I got from one of the Linux mags...) No problem running it at 640x480 on a laptop... My ...

Thanks for the advise, I'm going to checkout the Philips. While looking for what webcam to buy I ran into this page: http://www.smcc.demon.nl/webcam/ By the sound of it kernel support for philips camera that used the PWC driver might need kernel patching in the future... For info, I'm a total newb ...
