Black screen with network camera NSP CC36

Post by vt »

Hi, i've install zoneminder, without any problems on ubuntu, follow instructions regarding shared memory and apache configuration, everything is working fine with my Axis 221 IP camera, but with my NSP CC36 i got a black image.
I've tested with vlc the image is correctly displayed :
For example my camera have ip address : 192.168.0.2
if i do : vlc http://192.168.0.2/GetData.cgi images are perfectly displayed with vlc but with zoneminder i get a black screen with idle 0.0 FPS.

I've tried different resolution : 640*480, 320*240,704*576,352*288, no effect, i've tried with cambozola, no luck too.
It's seems we can view with java applet this camera too, but i don'tknow how to use it in zoneminder.

Does anyone know or could help me ?
In advance thanks for your help

Is this the only error in the system log?

Try this. Set monitor mode to "Record", then navigate to your events folder, choose an event in the monitor's folder and see if the event images contain true images or black\blue screen.
Another option is exporting the event video and watching it using VLC.

This should tell if the problem is ZM having problems receiving video from the camera or streaming the video to you.
