zmu -d /dev/video0 -q -v doesn't work

Post by filfish »

Hi got zoneminder up and running, got one zone and one usb cam setup for monitor, in the main window the source and monitor links are orange (not sure if thats good or bad)

when i open the monitor window it says 'status:idle 0.00 fps' and displays no picture.

xawtv displays the cam image fine but when i try to run 'zmu -d /dev/video0 -q -v' as I've seen in several posts it gives me the following errors.

[root@mulan filfish]# zmu -d /dev/video0 -q -v
zmu: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[root@mulan filfish]#

Ive also tried as root withexactly the same result

any suggestions?

I'm on fc4 with 2.6 kernel

Thanks

Hi there

It looks like you dont have ffmpeg with its shared lib installed.

Try installing ffmpeg and it shared libaries and see if that fix your problem.
