firewire isight?

Post by tdog »

My apologies, I responded to an earlier thread which I think is not really in the appropriate forum category and thought I should just start a new thread on the topic...

It seems someone out there has been able to get their isight working with zoneminder but I'm having some problems.

I have been able to get the isight to work with coriander but not with the v4l support.

with coriander, when you turn on v4l do you have to tell zoneminder to look to /dev/video0 ?

I have tried /dev/video0 /dev/raw1394 /dev/video1394/0 but nothing seems to stream through to the web interface. I'm sure I must have set something incorrectly in the configuration. any pointers on how to trouble shoot this?
