No problem, but you'll probably need Cordel or one of those guys to answer the question about the config file. I just thought from the look of the h264 type that it might require something special with ffmpeg. I could be wrong so don't hold it to me. If you can put the cam on a public IP and send me...

I'm sure it's probably something to do with your version of ffmpeg. I know up until lately when I was building Zoneminder it would complain about h264 in one of the config files. When I compiled the newest ffmpeg and Zoneminder this morning that error was gone. I'm just taking a guess at this point,...

Glad to see it's working for you. I'll try and get you guys all an update for that dvd if you want to have the latest stable build. I'm not sure if there is a need to update that dvd, but I know most people want the latest.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll take note of this and upgrade ffmpeg once again and roll it all into an update for my dvd.

I had time some time this morning before heading out the door to manually upgrade the DVD I put out. I'll have a step by step or a download that people can grab and bring their DVD up to the stable release this evening. Worse case if the update doesn't work for whatever reason you could reinstall th...

I did a version with mapped memory on and one without. I found the one with it turned on would only display a black image on 640x480, but the other build with a tweaked shared memory setting would display the image no problem. Do both require some tweaking, or are you saying the new mapped memory op...

I'm pretty sure it was the shared memory settings. I couldn't get more then 320x240 out of my Orbit until I did those commands. The zero in the username mistake probably added to it :) The PTZ functions I'm sure will work also, just make sure you download the fix I put out for the DVD, otherwise you...

I've already got one that was made by another forum user for 1.24. I currently use it on remote devices and have not tested it by using it on the actual computer running Zoneminder.

Would love if you could expand on it. If you want I'll send you a pm link to see it in action.

For anyone using my DVD, please keep in mind the shared memory settings are at stock settings. Depending on how much memory you machine has, you can adjust settings to get higher resolution then 320x240. The following done with putty or ssh on my test server with 2gb ram and the Orbit AF cam resulte...

You might have to increase the shared memory limit. The DVD I put out has all stock settings on the shared memory side and is not using the new mapped memory option. I didn't have to much luck using that yet. The following entries via ssh or putty on my test DVD machine with 2 gb of ram resulted in ...

Zoneminder, Just wanted to let you know I rebuilt from the ground up the newest 1.24 with a brand new ffmpeg compiled today. All the warnings are gone and everything came together with no problems at all. It looks like you were right about every second counting with ffmpeg. I take that back, althoug...

I found some settings for the older version,

Remote Host Name: user:pass@ipofcam
Port 80 (or whatever you set it to)
path: /still.jpg?nocache

I'm not sure what link you putting in your browser. Does it end in the path above?

Have you tried lower resolution? When Chuck D has his test server up people where hooking up Axis cam's and they were working from the DVD I put out. I should have taken screen shots of the settings, but I know they worked. What model of Axis? Put your server on a public ip and send it to me. I'll p...

I've got a test server online and the PM is sent. Everything works on my end, just have to test the Orbit on my actual desktop and see what happens.
