I know this has been pretty much talked to death, but I can't find any definitive answer for my problem. I use a Wansview IP camera model W2. It works fine with any browser and the Wansview app. But all I get from zoneminder is a blue screen. I have tried most of the options but most result in the same blue screen. Sometimes a white screen.
So, here is the configuration.
Souce Type: Ffmpeg I have tried most of the others with no satisfactory result
Source Path: rstp://user:pw@ip:554/mjpeg/snap.cgi?chn=0
Remote Method: RTP/Unicast, I have tried RTP/RTSP and most of the others
I have also tried http://user:pw@ip:80/mjpeg/snap.....
The log just started to give me some errors. Unable to open input rtsp://jwright:passwowrd@192.168.10.68:554/mjpeg/snap.cgi?chn=1 due to: Operation now in progress
I have found some references to this error and have made sure no other computers are accessing the camera. So I'm at a loss.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Blue Screen
Re: Blue Screen
Thank you. I did that and I was able to get the camera in the browser using that connect string. But it took about 10 seconds to bring the image up. Makes me wonder if maybe it isn't a timing issue?
I changed my source to that string and still get the blue screen.
Here is what I get from the log:

Note the last entry, appears to be a timing issue. So where can I change that 10sec to something longer?
