I monitor several Solar System controller readouts with small 2" b&w board cams and it works great. I can look at the exact same display, remotely 24/7. If there is any way you can install an indicator such as an LED or something that changes and causes the picture to be different and detects motion ...

Thanks Cordel, I have the LIVEcd 1.22.3 installed with a regular desktop I guess. I used the LIVECD install because I am a dunce when it comes to fancy console commands...hehe However I guess I better get consolin' - I'll follow your directions and see what happens. But first I have to go install ...

Thanks for your quik answer Cordel, Is the changing of the ports on one of those machines hard? - as in How? That does sound the easiest if I can do it... Thanks again - Solaris Oh and the reason I am using 2 machines is because one is going to be setting atop a pole, solar-powered and wirelessly ...

Howdy Everyone, Hopefully this will be an easy fix----> I have 2 seperate machines with 2 seperate LIVEcd ZM 1.22.3 installs. I can run them both at same time but can only connect to one machine locally or remotely even though the usernames and passwords are different. I also have ports 80 and 443 ...

Henri, Just wanted to tell you, the LIVECD is easy as pie getting ZoneMinder up and running! I have tried it on at least 9 machines and only 2 were too old to work. I used a Logitech quickcam4000 usb and within 5 minutes depending on the machines RAM, I had a picture and everything. This was only ...

got it fixed ,- cool,-> here is a link to the ZM LIVECD 1.22.3 http://linuxtracker.org/torrents-details.php?id=3643 It works well for me installed with a Duron 950, 1 gb RAM, a PV-143 Bluecherry card, and a small hard drive for now. I have got the LIVECD to work on at least 6 different machines ...

hey linuxnewbie, just got back from a trip of over 3 weeks- where I was able to watch my place back home with 3 cameras thanks to ZONEMINDER. I'm using the 1.22.3LIVECD version - so I am not sure what yer problem might be. Sorry I cannot be more helpful, my router ending up being my problem - go ...

TimboUK, thanks for the great info, sounds like just what I need for a few of my installs with dynamic IP addresses.
Easy is great - works well is even better
Thanks again, Solaris

Hey Marty, The first router I had connected that worked for 4 years was a Network Everywhere {Linksys} NR041. It worked at least till I had this port 80 zm issue. I did "something" to it messing with the settings, and then could not seem to reset it back to defaults. Since I was unable to get zm to ...

wow unclerichy - thats great! I think you are right about the frame rates- keeping them lower. I am running an old duron on an asus board, with an old 10gb hd and a bluecherry 30fps {total} card with 1 gb RAM. I havent had all 4 cams capturing at once , but I have no problems whatsoever with ...

Hey posticchio, I am not sure about your board as I have a mini-itx setup using the older 800 MHz VIA EpiaM with older SDRAM memory and older video codec. This board is now harder to find as there have been many upgrades and improvements to all the mini-itx motheboards. HOWEVER - It simply reboots ...

Hey Taz - Don't know if I can help you except relate my problem and its fix. As far as I know - port 80 is the only port that needs to be opened for the zm box to work. I had a similar problem that turned out to be the router setup that was only fixable with replacing my router. You may not need to ...

Corey thanks again for you help - I finally got everything working! After 3 hours of wrangling with a NEW router and its settings to get back online - my friend in LA was able to get connected and check it out, now he wants to setup a zm box too! The only thing I can determine is - my router was ...

Hi again, Well the new version 1.22.3 is nice - it has some new features and seems to work great except, -->still no remote connection to console! I have had 5 seperate ppl with 5 different kinds of connections in 4 different states attempt to get the login window, and nothing has worked. I do not ...

Hi all, Well I see the new LiveCD 1.22.3 is out - so I am downloading that and plan to redo my install and see if that helps my remote connection to console issue. I am still open to any suggestions and/or ideas regarding this problem. Maybe I will get lucky and it will work with the updated version ...
