I think "Remote Method" in 1.24.2 is the same as "netcam regexps" in 1.23.3. Try setting that to "no", which I'm guessing is the same as "simple" in 1.24.2.madmax00001 wrote:Knnniggett,
I tried the settings that you posted but perhaps I am suffering from newbieism and cannot find the controls for changing the settings for remote protocol or remote method. I looked through the camera settings as well as the options page. Do I need to go into terminal and try to muck with it there?
Perhaps I am missing a plugin..I thought I read somewhere that cambozola.jar is included in the zoneminder 1.23.3 package so I didn't specifically install it. I did install ffmpeg so that's not the issue.
Remote Protocol: HTTP
Remote Method: Simple
\Remote Host Name: {username}:{password}@{camera ip}
Remote Host Port: 80
Remote Host Path: /cgi/mjpg/mjpg.cgi
Remote Image colors: 24 bit
Capture Width: 640
Capture Height: 480
I also flashed the 500 firmware to the latest (B25) so the nonstandard mjpeg shouldn't be an issue.
Thank you very much for your help on this issue.
I think you can ignore the "Remote Protocol" setting because it doesn't look like you have a choice in 1.23.3 (it's already set internally to HTTP).
Perhaps most importantly, make sure your "Host Path" is set to "/cgi/mjpg/mjpg.cgi". You had originally stated you were using something different.
Hope that helps.
