Foscam FI9903P not motion detecting

Post by Alpinesun »

Hi all,

I have configured a couple of Foscam FI9903P cameras and have set them to Modect but they aren't registering any events.

I'm not sure if Modect is a valid option on this camera or not (I see on the wiki guide monitor as the only example). Can anyone confirm that it is possible to run this camera in Modect?

Regards and thanks in advance,

Col

Linux distro and version?
Instructions you used to install Zoneminder?
What error messages are in your log? No reason for the camera to not work if you have configured Zoneminder properly...

Are you by chance rotating the video?
I was doing this, and had to go in and change the detection 'zone' settings because the red square was still stuck in the original orientation for some reason, and nothing would trigger an event.
