I run Ubuntu 10.04, having a Foscam FI8918W hooked on my modem/router.
I set up ZM, have everything on green (Modect, camera name) but no stream.
On probe I get : "Unable to probe network cameras, status is '127'"

Settings:
Remote Protocol: http
Remote Method: simple
host: user:pwd@ip-adress
port: port of the cam
hostpfad: /video.cgi
pixel: 640
480

I have been looking for hours but no avail.
I know it is working because it takes pics on detection! I see it in the "events".

How can this be solved?
It is the last step to complete it.

Any help is much appreciated!

p.s.
On the web I see a lot of peeps having this problem

Check your settings in cambazoola (Options::Images?)

By the way, search in the forum for the probe feature, I believe someone posted a fix days ago, it was a change in a script.

@PacoLM

The cambazoola has been checked.
I will read in the Probe threat, thanks for the reply mate!

I am sure it is just a small tweak only.....where... he he he

Does this ring a bell to any one?

" zmc_m1[2480]: WAR [Corrupt JPEG data: 1 extraneous bytes before marker 0xd9] "

Please do let me know.
Thanks in advance

Nothing at this point? from any one?

Still having no streaming at all... it does do motion detection, everything ... Even the zone!!
No stream...

Any one???

Changing :
arch = int(3.2*length(~0));
into :
arch = 32;

resolved the error of 127 only there is no streaming.

Any one else this prob??

There two separate problems, that you have,
the first is an error with probe cameras, and the second is with the stream.
The first is easy to fix, and have been explained shortly at the end of

however it is in Spanish .
In file /skins/classic/views/monitorprobe.php you have to find a line $command = "arp -a";
and replace it into the form $command = "/usr/sbin/arp -a";
But the probe function is only for auto detection of cameras and works only for a few types (of course not for such a cameras that I have ).
To the second problem, probably it is not a problem with network connection. It may be a problem with shared memory configuration.
For example:
in file /etc/sysctl.conf
include lines:
kernel.shmall = 167772160
kernel.shmmax = 167772160
