ZM video problem on Ubuntu server 9.1

[rukavina]

Hi All,

I've installed zoneminder on ubuntu server 9.1. Everything seems to work fine except for the main thing. When I add monitor mjpg source from ip camera (source itself is fine) I see no picture:
source type: ffmpeg
source path: http://192.168.1.11:8070/video.mjpg
source colors: 24b

However when I set 8bit colors I see something, but definitely not correct image.

In log I get this:

Any ideas?

Had the same here, posted in this thread: http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=14923

Are you on 64bit?
Which version of ZM are you using?
Self build or from respository?

Yes, it's 64bit ubuntu.
ZM is 1.24.1 installed from package ( sudo apt-get install zoneminder )

Seems like I fixed the problem by increasing shared memory in /etc/sysctl.conf , these lines added:

Code: Select all

kernel.shmall = 234217728
kernel.shmmax = 234217728

and reboot
