Failed to get picture attributes: Invalid argument
Posted: Mon Sep 03, 2012 4:16 am
I'm working on getting ZoneMinder up & running on an old netbook (EEE900HA). It has a Rosewell WebCam connected. The OS is Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS (32-bit).
I've got it all installed and can access the webpage. I've got Camobolza installed as well.
I am, however, not getting feed when I try to view the camera. The error "Failed to get picture attributes: Invalid argument" is the most interesting thing to appear in the log as far as I can tell.
A screenshot of the system log, a screenshot of the attributes of the attached webcams (I believe /dev/video0 is the internal webcam and /dev/video1 is the external USB webcam. I am attempting to use the external USB webcam), and a screenshot of the camera settings (I've tried a few variations with no luck) are attached.
I've searched the web & wiki for my error message and have found next to nothing about it.
If anyone has any insight on how to fix this I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,
Sean
