Hi,

we have 8 video Cameras That go from a 8 Bnc to 1 VGA which is plugged into a PCI slot. Will ZoneMinder work with this device?

Thanks in advance!

I have dozens of those. Some work, and some don't. The ones with the game port work best...

Hint, you might want to tell us what card you are using.

Hey, thanks for your quick reply

I pulled out the card and there is no model number or anything and we dont have any docs on it (of course)

It has 2 - 3 row 15 PIn female ports. and 2 Yellow RCA ports.

It came with a FOXCONN System. Any ideas?

Thanks alot!

Conxeant Fusion 878A is a chip on the board, still not a board manufacturer/model or descriptive enough to give you anything useful. And allot of boards have that chip.

You could try card=77 but there is no guarantees as I have no idea what you got.
Plenty of info about v4l:

Chip, not board, as stated... Need them pics...

Also 6.06 is old and will not support the current version. However, Hardy is still too buggy in my opinion. I and using Gutsy, and it is very stable. (This is about 40 desktops and servers, as well as ZM)
