Hi everybody,
i've bought a grad wifi-cam for a quick and dirty installation. The cam looks quite good, i get fine pictures at low price.
But unfortunately i can't integrate the jpeg-pictures (hosted on
http://192.168.0.61/still.jpg with http-auth) into ZM.
Any ideas?
Here's the link to the manuf:

Best Regards,
Erwin

thank you!!
i got it, the problem was that the shm-buffer size was too small (as written in
http://www.zoneminder.com/index.php?id= ... faq_faq=10)
I remember, I had the same problem grabbing pictures bigger than 480x360 via bttv.
Grand IP Cameras, at least the Wifi and "III"-Models are working fine!
Remote Host Name root:
admin@ip.of.the.cam
Remote Host Port 80
Remote Host Path /still.jpg
The only disadvantage is the low image quality on daylight, the dark, flashing infrared LED's. But at the price of about 80 euro it's ok.
best regards, erwin

Good news. If they aren't there already would you mind adding these to the supported hardware section of the Wiki?

this camera seems to be able to output only 4-5fps via ZM
i've tested to view it directly with zm and it looks much faster at 15-30fps
any ideas to make it run at 15fps or more
thanks
