Actually that may be bogus as I've just noticed that the debug you posted was for zmu and not zmc. Nevertheless I would still suggest checking the zones anyway.

Hi Phil,

I checked the zones, default does exit, however I changed it's size to check, the results are the same.

What debug info should I have sent?

Unable to find information regarding the debu_target option. I am however seeing this in the zm,log:

Apr 1 10:16:20 ryoko zmc_m2[23782]: INF [New Debug Level = 5, New Debug Log = /tmp/zm_debug.log.23782]

And that debug log says:

I think this may be it. ZMDC.log has:

04/01/2006 10:19:19.994410 zmdc[23660].INF ['zmc -m 2' starting at 06/04/01 10:19:19, pid = 24047]
Not a JPEG file: starts with 0x35 0x39

However the file I get if I run it manually through a web browser is a jpeg file.

I do not have the option -s on my version of wget. Did you mean --spider?

Sorry - I realized I had been running the camera in B/W mode as a test.

I put it back to 24 but colour and ran the wget command again:

wget -S http://192.168.254.29/cgi-bin/video.jpg > logfile--06:52:55-- http://192.168.254.29/cgi-bin/video.jpg

Been away due to illnes.
Not seen any reply - does that indicate no-one can help?

I am more than willing to make the camera available on-line for anyone to test if required. The image downloaded certainly seems to be a valid jpeg...

Hi Phil,

Phew! It now works.

I upgraded to 1.22.2 and changed ZM_HTTP_VERSION under network to a value of 1.0.

I can now pull in the images for default 176x120
And also pull in the larger image eg: 352x240 by using
/cgi-bin/video.jpg?size=2 in the remote host path.

Now all I have to do is get the PTZ to work... :D
