/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi?resolution=320x240

The resolution settings are correct, and that is the path I'm using.

strange i had issues with jpeg grab on a 206m.

I use 206's on many sites with great success. Try using jpeg grabs and see if that helps

I will as soon as the camera itself is operational again. I tried to flash the firmware and it sort of died midway through, so now I have to wait for Axis tech support to tell me how to flash the memory.

Okay. It seems to be working without the frame constraint.

If I want to force users to log in to view the camera image, how do I go about passing a username/password along to Zoneminder, so it can log in?

Thanks! I figured it out by myself just as you posted it.

I think it's actually working now.
