[solved] how view video camera Linksys WVC45G in ZM ?

Post by jaume85 »

Hello people!
I want the forum but have not found solution to my problem.
I have to run a Linksys wvc54g network camera, there is some soliton to see this view video of tihs camera in ZM?

The only solution I found is to capture frames with an external program to send ZM as source file but I lost frames, is not very useful in the case of video surveillance.

Thanks!!

This should get you going. I almost bought one at the german store, but after reading it looks like the resolution you have access to is very small. Maybe somewould could find another way. You may already be using these suggestions since you said something about an external program. I can't find the post right now where someone showed how to get it working along with the ptz functions.

edit: Disregard, the above info might help but I had this camera confused with one that was in the local store here. I thought for sure this was what you where talking about, which does work with zoneminder.
