Hi, I'm a newbie and Dutch.
I have installed Zoneminder to watch swifts at their nest
Unfortunately, I get a black screen when the program is on.
Who can help me? I work with a pico2000card
when i read the log i see the next errors:
Code: Select all
2014-05-06 17:50:52.086520 zmdc 4084 ERR 'zmc -d /dev/video0' exited abnormally, exit status 255 zmdc.pl

In your /etc/modprobe.d/bttv.conf check for these lines:
alias char-major-81-0 bttv
options bttv gbuffers=32 card=77 tuner=4 radio=0 coring=1 full_luma_range=1 chroma_agc=1 combfilter=1 autoload=0 triton1=0 vsfx=0
Or have a look at this wiki page:
Pico2000#ZoneMinder_configuration_2.0

check: stil dont work
Different errors
Code: Select all
2014-05-07 19:45:11.166840 zmdc 4434 ERR 'zmc -d /dev/video0' exited abnormally, exit status 255 zmdc.pl

The next commando worked for me: xawtv /dev/video0
but gives the next message
Code: Select all

Alsa devices: cap: (null) (/dev/video0), out: default
but zoneminder gives still a black screen.
