I've spc5xx webcam on FC4, zm 1.22.0 and the following warning on logs:
WAR [Approaching buffer overrun, consider slowing capture, simplifying analysis or increasing ring buffer size

Shared memory was increased: both /proc/sys/kernel/shmall and /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax are 134217728, which I think is far enough.

Monitor settings: Maximum fps: 3, palette 24 bits, Width x Heigth: 352 x 288 and
Image buffer size:10 you have to agree it's very conservative.

An odd thing: if I increase "image buffer size" to 11, monitor goes red and stops working:
ERR [Shared memory not initialised by capture daemon]

Is there any other setting which might be affecting?

Thanks,
Sergio

Increasing the image buffer size is the right thing to do as 10 is much too small but you nearly always have to do a full ZM restart to make sure this takes effect.
