change events dir & PTZ watchbot camera

Post by sagitt »

Hi, I've 2 big problems with my zoneminder installation :cry:!

Now I'm using zoneminder 1.25.0 on ubuntu server 12.04 with mjpg-streamer, cambozola and with 4 microsoft usb camera and 1 WatchBot camera connected, all works right except:

_____________________________________________________________________________________

1. I want to change my events directory because i'm using all of this on an eeepc 900 xp edition with only 4gb ssd.

I mounted a 2 gb ext3 sd card and mounted it in "/media/sdcard1/" and all works (i've already edited fstab for auto-mount on startup), but if i make a subdirecotry "/media/sdcard1/zoneminedr/events" and do:

Code: Select all

rm -r /usr/share/zoneminder/events/
ln -s /media/sdcard1/zoneminder/events /usr/share/zoneminder/events"
the directory change, but zoneminder can't save events in this directory. how i've to do?
(i've already tried to do another symlink like sd_evetns and edit option in zoneminder configuration and it's to the same)

2. I've a PTZ camera called watchbot

The watchbot respond correctly to these commands:

Code: Select all

w w w.domoticaforum.eu/viewtopic.php?t=7155&p=53860
and you can see that a lot of people tell that this camera is so similar to foscam.

so I tried all possibile script and all configuration but nothing works... how i've to do?

i've tried a lot of things, but i can't post other links for now. i've tried foscam zoneminder documentation stream url\script etc...

thanks and sorry for my bad english
