I am trying to get the amazingly cheap GeoVision/USAvision cameras to work. I have the main channel set up for H.264 and the sub for mjpeg with RTSP. It works fine on vlc with
Code: Select all
rtsp://user:password@192.168.64.70/media/video1
and
Code: Select all
rtsp://user:password@192.168.64.70/media/video2
. It also captures fine with
Code: Select all
ffmpeg -rtsp_transport tcp -i rtsp://user:password@192.168.64.70/media/video1 -f image2 -vf fps=fps=1 hello/img%03d.png
If I drop out the fps limitation, it captures at about 15 FPS...
But in Zoneminder, I get nothing. My Source is
Code: Select all
rtsp://user:password@192.168.64.70/media/video1
and for options I have tried
and
Code: Select all
-rtsp_transport -f image2 -vf fps=fps=1
but no love. Logs are green, but I get no pictures saved. And mjpeg does not work either on video2.
Any ideas?

Sigh... Never mind... Missed this in the instructions. Need to bring back the flash tag from the 80s.
PATH_ZMS is not set to /zm/cgi-bin/nph-zms
Also, the images directory does not hold the images...
TLDR: User error, but the instructions could be more clear.
