Remote camera problems.

Sorry to be such a bother.

but...

I am trying to connect to a remote camera. I can get to the image using a browser, but when I put the info into zoneminder, the ip is red. The log says:

May 19 12:33:26 linux-udp234115uds zmc-m11[2771]: INF [Debug Level = 0, Debug Log = ]
May 19 12:33:26 linux-udp234115uds zmc-m11[2771]: INF [Starting Capture]

but if you go to view the image, it is black.

If you put a path to an image that is not on the server, the ip turns yellow.

Any ideas?

Thanks
John

Can you post what the path you are using is? I assume you can 'wget' it and it doesn't lock up. As usual what distro and version of ZM are you using?

The ip of the machine is:
163.241.30.101

its trying to get:
Host:
163.241.30.4
Port:
80
Path:
/test_data/nearfield/itworks_batch_itworks_serial/zm/itworks_serial.jpg

Its SuSE 8.2 with ZM 1.19.3.

wget works fine as the user that zoneminder is using. Is there something special about the image size? Anything to look for?
