It looks ok but possibly it is objecting to maybe the Bandwidth header. I have removed that locally and it will be tonoights svn but perhaps in the meantime you could sniff the vlc communications with WireShark as I don't have a Vivotek and want to be sure what it will accept and reject.

I posted a link to the wireshark vlc <- camera dump a few posts back.
You can find it at http://www.fixertec.net/cam.dump

I have another Vivotek lying around that I meant to RMA a while back. If I can get it working, consider it a donation.

PM me your address. I have a present waiting for you!

I have had a look at the WS dump, which I missed first time around. The one thing that jumps out is the TrackID is missing. Can you try and edit the monitor settings and put /trackID= in the Remote Host sub path and see what difference that makes.

Posted: **Wed Feb 18, 2009 1:45 pm**

Well hot damn.
Setting /trackID= in the sub path makes a lot of progress - zoneminder is able to successfully connect to the camera, etc.
Now it looks like I am missing a codec.

Have you tried using it with ffplay to see if that works. The codec etc are gotten from the ffmpeg libraries so it would be interesting to know if ffplay handles it.

That is kind of what I figured (that it got the codec from ffmpeg).
If I do a

Code: Select all

kjohnson@cosmos:~$ ffmpeg -i rtsp://192.168.9.14:7070/live.sdp -f mpeg /var/www/www.fixertec.net/live.sdp

and then open www.fixertec.net/live.sdp in totem, I am able to view a live stream of the camera. So I assume that ffmpeg is handling the rtsp OK?

I am using the newest build of ffmpeg from svn (as of last night), and the newest build of zoneminder from svn (as of this morning).

One thing that I noticed while compiling ZM was that I had to manually copy all of the includes (/usr/local/include/libavcodec/, /usr/local/include/libavformat/, etc) to /usr/local/ffmpeg/ for zoneminder to find them during ./configure?

Posted: **Wed Feb 18, 2009 4:33 pm**

Configure should find them wherever they are so I would be careful about doing that. You should not need to specify a --with-ffmpeg path if they are in either of those locations.

Posted: **Wed Feb 18, 2009 4:35 pm**

Also, if it's not too much trouble perhaps you could try and get a WS capture of the ffplay interaction (and maybe the ZM one as well).

When I coped the files with the "... no" to to /usr/local/include/ffmpeg, everything in ./configure came back with "checking .... yes"

What it's doing is fine. It's looking in all the places it knows ffmpeg headers files have been lately. So long as it finds one set then it should be ok.

OK, I seem to have some progress.
ZM is giving me a different error now, so I think I have everything with ffmpeg resolved.

It works!
I had it in Unicast mode. After trying RTP/RTSP, it works.
Getting some other errors now, but I have video, so I will toy around and report.

Everything seems to be working, relating to zoneminder 1.24 and the Vivotek cameras. I will post any relevant details pertaining to this camera in the wiki. Thanks for the help everyone.
