Once i did that it started working for me.

Hi there. I have been using ZoneMinder for some time now and I really want to get the ffmpeg part working. After reading all the forum posts here is what i have done so far: Installed ffmpeg from source: svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg cd ffmpeg ./configure --enable-gpl ...

I verified that I am using apache 2. Its working when I look from another pc.

Hi, I followed the wiki guide for my install and for the most part, it is working well. Everything appears to be working except when i try to access a camera on the local machine, i get no video. I have tried http://localhost as well as http://192.168.1.15 (IP address of the machine). Firefox opens ...

I am using ZM 1.22.3 (Installed 1.22.2 from LiveCD and upgraded using RPM) I really didn't play with the filters when it was on 1.22.2 so I don't know if I had this issue then: If I create a filter and check the various options (ie Delete and run in background) and then click on save, the new filter ...

James,

Thanks for your offering to access my box, but for some reason it works now. I installed a capture card and after that all my ip cameras started to work as well. Strange, I know.

Here is what i found out so far: ZM box 1: I was able to get the network camera form my first post to work. In the ZM console the source pad initially appeared red. Even after I updated to the correct screen resolution (to match the camera output) it did not work. I needed to restart ZM before it ...

Thanks for offering to help. The box is public already. is it ok to pm you with the information? I'd rather not put the access information in a public forum. ***update It is working on one zm box but not on the other. the url under source is listed in red on the one where it is not working and ...

Thanks for the quick reply. I don't get any errors in my zmwatch.log logs. here is the result from tail zmwatch.log 12/09/06 15:34:48.221410 zmwatch[7754].INF [Watchdog starting] 12/09/06 15:34:48.223035 zmwatch[7754].INF [Watchdog pausing for 30 seconds] 12/09/06 16:39:57.283856 zmwatch[9534].INF ...

I have tried many different ip cams and I am unable to display any of them in ZM. Here is an example cam: http://www.togwoteelodge.com/webcam/netcam.jpg It displays just fine in the browser. wget gets the image as well. I entered the information in zm, but I am unable to display a picture. I ...

It took me a little while to figure it out, so I figured I post it in case anyone else needs it. 1. Log into your ZM computer 2. su to root (type su, press ENTER, provide password: qwerty by default) 3. type: wget http://www.fairpoint.net/~rdmelin/RPMS/mdk_2006/zm-1.22.3-4_20060mdk.i586.rpm + ENTER ...

I got it figured out. I used the sample script from tht faq and used the open() method to write the information to the serial port.

Thanks for the reply.

Hi, I have been using ZM for a full 24 Hrs and I love it. It does everything that I have been looking for. I installed from the 1.22.2 LiveCD and I am using 3 cameras with a 4-port Haupauge capture card. No problems there. I am looking for some advice on how to send an ASCII string over the serial ...
