Techwell TW6805a chips

Post by gola10 »

This is a 8 chips 16 channel pci board AOP-V8108.

Each chip is a TW6805A
Found some instructions on how to install the module here. And this works but for Lucid

I have zoneminder 1.24 installed on Mint Linux which fortunatelly is based on Lucid.

I have available only one camera to try it. so used video0(0) and video0(1) and it work on both. I will have to wait until i get a second camera.
Something i did find is that if both cameras are defined as "monitor" on zoneminder but only one camera is plugged on one of the two defined cameras, the image is gray even if it is set to color. If i set one camera to "none" the the image is in color. Do not know yet if this behavior persist if both cameras are plugged. I do not have two cameras now to tey.

Does anyone has experience with this board?
