ZoneMinder Forums

Hi,

I am trying to setup a new camera withing zoneminder LevelOne FCS-3081

I have it setup to work using just JPG still image, but the frame rate isn't good enough, and we want to setup RTSP using MJPEG or H264
Still Image URL: http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/jpg/image.cgi?

At present, i have a RTSP URL of:
rtsp://192.168.1.1/jpeg which brings up the MJPEG stream fine in VLC
also the URL rtsp://192.168.1.1/h264 works to bring up the H264 stream in VLC

I have tried to get either to work in Zoneminder, but am running into the below errors in the logs:

zm_debug.log

(repeats twice every 10 seconds)

I'm not sure of what changes i need to make to get it up and running.
Is anyone able to offer any assistance?

I've rebuilt it from scratch, other cameras work, ut the message in the logs is different now:

03/14/11 17:01:20.100792 zmdc[1950].INF ['zmc -m 6' starting at 11/03/14 17:01:20, pid = 21493]

I've installed mplayer: here is what it has in the logs when i play the RTSP url:

mplayer rtsp://192.168.1.97/jpeg

The video plays, and i can exit normally.
I've removed anything i though was Irrelevant from the logs.
