ZoneMinder Forums

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Info:
Mint Linux 10 32bit
used apt-get to install zoneminder 1.24.2-7
I am able to get to zm console webpage
but when I add a Axis 207 netcam I see a black screen.

This is how I set the camera settings
General Tab:
Source Type: Remote
Function Monitor

Source:
Remote Protocol HTTP
Remote Method Simple
Remote Host Name IP address
Remote Host Port 80
Remote Host Path /mjpg/video.mjpg
Remote Image Colours 24bit
Width 640
Height 480

Here is the output of my logs:

This is likely a shared memory problem. Try the script suggested here:
http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewto ... 21&t=17595

You would probably find that if you reduced the resolution to 320 x 240 it would work and that would confirm it as a shared memory problem.

made the changes and restarted the server... this is what I get.
