I have similar issues with an IP camera, but the BNC cameras work fine.

15fps is what I normally run.
5 of the cameras are set at 320x240 and 2 are set at 640x480
all are set for color

I made the mistake of picking up an IP camera that was not Zoneminder friendly. I am only able to get 15fps and 320x240 out of it. It is a Level-One dome camera.

I'm still very new to ZM, but I have 7 cameras on a quad core system and it is under utilized. Out of the 7 cameras only two are IP and the other 5 are BNC. The part I'm not sure about and I'm sure someone else can answer is being able to extract a certain time frame out. WIth the 12 hour recording ...

I'm sill very new to all of this, but you may need to add some settings in the bttv line.

I tested something similar with a PV-981 card, bu realized the frame rate dropped to like 5fps.

What is the hardware and software specifications of your setup?

I am having trouble get the rpmfusion to download. I keep getting timeouts on the connection.

Also should the directory for the events be setup on an xfs?

I have the linux media lab 8 port card, but can not get the ports on the expansion bracket to work properly. I do get an image, but it all screwed up. I can take the same camera with almost the same settings (dev/video0 0, vs dev/video0 1) and the image is fine. I don't have a bttv.conf or modprobe....

I'm using Ubuntu desktop 32bit 9.04 with ZM 1.23.3 and I have 4 bnc cameras setup. 3 of the cameras are 640x480 and all 4 are set to RGB24 and modetect. What should I have the shmmax & shmall set to? Is there a recommended amount of memory per camera that I should allocate? The system load seems...

The /img/video.mjpeg did not work. I also tried: /cgi-bin/viewer/img/video.mjpeg /cgi-bin/viewer/video.mjpeg When I open a browser to the camera it seems to be viewing at a much higher frame rate than what I am getting from zm. Here is the parameter list from the levelone FCS3021 system_hostname='FC...

no luck. I made the changes and tried video0 0 and video0 1. i restarted zm, still no luck. i restarted the entire system, but nothing. I checked the zmdc.log and here is the last couple of lines: 10/07/09 21:48:08.04.039536 zmdc[2970].INF [Starting pending process, zmc -d /dev/video0 10/07/09 21:48...

honestly I went through an upgrade on my system from 1.23 to 1.24.1 and now my bnc cameras are not working either. My hardware is new and I'm using a PV-981 card with 3 bnc cameras. I'm still a newb to linux. I was hoping to compare notes with you and hopefully resolve both are issues. Have you trie...
