Newbie with webcam Logitech Pro 9000 Needs help configuring

[loisach]

hallo,

i am pretty new in zoneminder and with Linux, so pls excuse maybe trivial questions.

i am using 1.26.5 with Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon. Web-Cam: Logitech Pro 9000 . The cam works fine on the system as they can be streamed with fire fox, vlc, cheese , etc.
When first add it shows the cam green on the console. But after sometime the cam gives red screen. If i change the resolution on zm it might show again green .. and later it goes red.

any help really appreciated.

thanks a lot
