[Solved] Foscam clone - PTZ error

Post by roadster »

Hello folks,
I can´t get PTZ functions for my foscam clones to work properly
I am using OpenSuSE 12.1 and ZoneMinder 1.26.4 and followed instructions for foscam clone owners.
When I try to make the camera go to e.g. preset 1 it does not move at all.
Several seconds later a messagebox shows the following error:

Control response was status = undefined
message = /usr/bin/zmcontrol.pl --preset=1 --command=presetGoto --id=1=>

The web ui of the camera works properly, the camera is in good condition...

I have searched all over the internet if someone got lucky to solve this problem... I didn´t find a thing.

Does anyone have an idea where to begin?

I found out that this error regarding foscam clones appears in several versions, so it would be useless installing another version?

please help :cry:

Is there someone who uses ZoneMinder 1.26.4, Opensuse using foscam clones with working PTZ functions?

Problems solved!
I installed the newest version of Opensuse (13.1) and then I installed ZM 1.26.4.
After a little trouble with the strict mode of mysql server the system is working, PTZ functions of my foscam clones are available!
