Using mpeg option over jpeg for STREAM_METHOD

[alamolou]

I would like to utilize the mpeg option for my ZoneMinder system. I believe I have everything necessary for ffmpeg set up on the server, however whenever I try to pull up a camera rather than show the video stream it is blank. What would I have to have set up for MPEG_LIVE_FORMAT and FFMPEG_FORMATS?

What do the logs show? When you compile ZoneMinder you used the "- with-ffmpeg =?
What do you see after the command "ffmpeg"?
While compiling ffmpeg and ZoneMinder, did not receive an error?

ZM_FFMPEG_FORMATS - here you give the file formats generated from the event. "* Mpg mpeg wmv avi mov 3gp asf swf **"

ZM_MPEG_LIVE_FORMAT - stream format. I recommend swf or asf

ZM_STREAM_METHOD - mpeg

ZM_OPT_CAMBOZOLA - mark
