hi all, i know this camera is known to work, but i'm tryng to use it with no luck..... anyone can help me configure zm and the camera, pls?
what i get is a black screen and this error:
zmc: zm_image.h:192: void Image::CopyBuffer(const Image&): Assertion `width == image.width && height == image.height && colours == image.colours failed.

the camera send a 320x240 image and the monitor is configured for a 320x240 image too (grayscale).

thank u in andvance

(I just sent you a reply to your private message, before I saw this post.)

The DCS-900 won't do grayscale, I tried setting ZM to grayscale to see what would happen and got the blank (black) image too. I didn't check for error messages, so I never noticed that. Just set ZM to color (24bit) and you should be fine.

ok, setting 24 bit color image solved this problem...
After that i had to modify shared memory size (echo 134217728 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax && echo 134217728 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmall ) to finally get workig this camera.

thanx
