Zoneminder Startup:

In firefox, go to https://YOUR_ZoneMinder.IP.ADDRESS.HERE:10000 to reach the Webmin interface.(Login with Ubuntu username and password)
In left menu, select System>Bootup and Shutdown. Tick the box next to zm and click StartNow and On Boot.

In left menu, select Servers>Apache Webserver. Click virtual server under Existing virtual hosts tab. Under Virtual Server Details, change Document Root to /var/www/zm and then save.
Click apply changes at top left of page.

Go to http://YOUR_ZoneMinder.IP.ADDRESS.HERE to reach the Zoneminder interface.

If you want better quality video, cut -r 25 in Option->Images->FFMPEG_OUTPUT_OPTIONS ad replace with:

-f mp4 -r 25 -b 2048k -vcodec mpeg4

Note: If you add New Monitor by hand, when you restart box, only Monitor 1 be green, monitor 2,3,4,5,6,7,8 still red. If you add New Monitor by Presets->BTTV Video (V4L2), PAL, 320x240->Save, everything works OK.

Nice job!

However, this particular line is not needed anymore (starting with ZM 1.24.4 and newer):

Code: Select all

install PHP::Serialization

I have a 32-Bit system. Will I be OK if I just change all of the 64s to 32s (Find & Replace)?

[mmi]

is this ok?

yes, for me works for 32 bit with necessary changes

can_stream, stream_method in High B/W, Low B/W, Medium B/W, Phone B/W tab

[mmi]

can you tell me what is doing this:

"export CFLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe" && export CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" && export CPPFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"

Create root account:

And later do everything with root too.

After success, would it be wise to remove the root account for security reasons? If so, what's the command?

Thanks.

If your camera looks like a thermal imaging camera (completely messed up colours), try changing the Capture Palette from YUV422P to YUYV. It worked for me.

[Jim March]

OK. I've run through all of this, but I can't get to the web interface.

I've tried going to the following links:

http://192.168.0.10:1000

https://192.168.0.10:1000

https://127.0.0.1:1000

http://127.0.0.1:1000

http://localhost:1000

https://localhost:1000

No joy on any of 'em. At:

http://192.168.0.10

...I get the standard Apache default startup text, so that part is working.

The command:

sudo zmpkg.pl start

...seems to work, but doesn't change anything. Can anybody tell me what's going on here?

[Jim March]

Nevermind, this works:

http://localhost/zm/

Sigh

Mostly getting back to basics always works!

I have two problems...

• The card supports 25FPS on each channel. But I can't figure out a way to view a camera at 25FPS.
• The card is PCI. My video card is also PCI. After going through this guide, my video card now seems to be disabled. My monitor (VDU) is switched on, but there's nothing on the screen. The monitor's constantly in sleep-mode as if there's no signal. Very weird. It's not much of a problem as I can still SSH.
