Getting Images Until Zoneminder Is Installed

slacker_900 · Post by **slacker_900** » Fri Jan 05, 2007 4:03 pm

Hi,

I have a Grandtec Grandx 4 port PCI interface card and am running suse 10. The card is found in the hardware section and i can view the inputs using the TV software that comes with suse like xawtv. As soon as zoneminder is installed i cannot get anything not even on xawtv. zoneminder is running fine with no errors but even if i stop zoneminder i still cannot get anything from xawtv.
Any Idea's?

Thanks Jamie

All the log files show is watchdog starting and then watchdog pausing for 30 seconds repeatedly. Also when i totally uninstall Zoneminder i still cannot get the images that i was recieving before. It is trying though because if i add monitors 0-3 then i get blue screens 4+ is black so it is recognising the card just not giving any images

I have found the solution. I removed the drivers in the TV card section of yast and it has allowed Zoneminder to pick up the signal. Thanks for your help.
