NO RECORD ON IP CAMERA

Hello everyone,

The program starts and after a few seconds it stops working

Not enough information.

What ip camera is it, and what are your settings in the monitor (source tab) ?

This is the camera:

300k-pixel-ip-network-internet-surveillance-ip-camera-35425
ON DEALEXTREME
(Cannot put URLs SORRY!)

Mi config for the camera is:

Remote Protocol HTTP
Remote Method Simple
Remote Host Name 192.168.120.2
Remote Host Port 80
Remote Host Path /image.jpg
Remote Image Colours 24 bit colour
Capture Width (pixels) 640
Capture Height (pixels) 480


The camera works OK but zoneminder stops working after a few seconds!

HELP PLEASE!

When you visit http://192.168.120.2/image.jpg in a browser you get a static jpg that is exactly 640x480?

If so, great. But zm won't work out of the box on 640x480 without a quick tweak.

Now - read the FAQ and follow the steps in the section on shared memory;

http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.ph ... esolutions.

If you're still having problems after doing that, check your logs - zm.log or relevant bits from syslog and post any likely looking error messages back here.

What frame rate are you using and did you set it on the camera or in Zoneminder?
