I'm on PCLinuxOS.
Had the same compile errors, " ...not declared...", with 1.25.0 pre-release.
Added this to zm_user.cpp:

#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <ctype.h>

Compiled ok after that.

I installed the recently released 1.24.3. My previous installation was 1.22.0. In that release the progress bar functioned very smoothly. In this release I find the progress bar to be quite jerky. As well, it frequently doesn't complete those last few seconds. From the Options>Help, it seems this ...

Here is an excerpt from the zm_create.sql script after running ./configure. insert into Config set Id = 115, Name = 'ZM_OPT_CONTROL', Value = '', Type = 'boolean', DefaultValue = 'no', Hint = 'yes|no', Pattern = '(?i-xsm:^([yn]))', ......... insert into Config set Id = 116, Name = 'ZM_OPT_TRIGGERS ...

As regards the 5 minute boot up: I had the same problem with this card. This is what fixed it for me. http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/problems.html excerpt: 3. bttv takes a long time to load On some cards without a tuner, bttv can take a long time to load (a few minutes). If you see this problem, try ...

Yes this is to fix that problem. If you can't use the patch program, it's easy to make the changes manually. The patch is only 3 lines. The lines with the"@" are the approximate line numbers in zm_image.cpp. Just type in the lines that are preceded with a "+" and delete the line that is preceded ...

Your first post shows you in the "scripts" directory. Shouldn't you be up a level to run Make?

Doesn't the set defaults undo the previous set quality?

thanks

I have one before the start compress in Image::WriteJpeg and one before the start compress in Image::EncodeJpeg. Is one of those redundant? I was implementing what I read at http://apodeline.free.fr/DOC/libjpeg/libjpeg-2.html "You can set all the parameters to reasonable defaults by calling jpeg_set ...
