ZoneMinder Forums

I got a really good deal on an IP camera, and I am trying to set this thing up with zoneminder. I cannot find anything about anyone working with this camera, so hopefully I can get some help here. I cannot get it to bring up video and I believe it is because I do not have the right sub path. It uses an ActiveX control for IE, but runs just fine in Firefox using Java, and also can run using a quicktime plug in. It encodes in both MPEG and MPEG4 and also can be viewed on any 3g phone using rtsp. Anyone have any ideas how I can get this to work with zoneminder?

If your able to try using the interface while a program like wireshark is running so you can find the commands and video streams. Or open it to the web temporarily some us us can look around and see if its compatible.

I have been messing around with this and trying to figure this out still. I used a packet sniffing program and came up with the following when I run the camera on java mode:

GET /cgi/mjpg/mjpeg.cgi HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (Windows 7 6.1) Java/1.6.0_17
Host: 192.168.1.82:8080
Accept: text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2
Connection: keep-alive



I have tried to enter the cgi path in to zoneminder, but still no go. Any other ideas?

I also found some packets that my camera was sending which I thought was weird:
NOTIFY * HTTP/1.1
LOCATION: http://192.168.1.82:50694/
HOST: 239.255.255.250:1900

CACHE-CONTROL: max-age=1800

Now that Location is the camera IP address, but the port is different. So I go to that location, and get the following:

<xml>

<major>1</major>
<minor>0</minor>
</specVersion>

</serviceList>
</device>
</root>

Not sure what all this means, anyone think they can help me figure this out?

One of two thing may be wrong.

/cgi/mjpg/mjpeg.cgi

May be a incorrect jpeg image.

or

ZM is not setup right (set your shared mem and then go check logs)

Finally got this to work and wanted to share in case someone else comes searching. I want to add to the wiki, but not sure how..

Source: un:pw@192.168.x.xx
Host path: /cgi/jpg/image.cgi

only pulls in about 1fps, but i'll take it
