PTZ issue Trendnet cam : '500 status read failed

Post by Wil »

I've got two days trying to find how make a my ptz TV-IP420P move with ZM.

I'm using Zm 1.30 on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS

I've got a stream and everything works fine with a Ffmpeg source exept moving.

I've tried every controller proposed in /usr/share/perl15/Zoneminder/Control
endind with different kind of errors.

I'm now trying hard with the AirLink SkyIPCam protocol (said to be Trendnet cam friendly), I changed the source type from remote to ffmpeg and the paths.

I still got this message : zmcontrol 3427 ERR Error check failed: '500 Status read failed: Connection reset by peer'.

I tried to chmod + r the control file, nothing changed.

Is anybody got a Trendnet cam ptz mooving on ZM ?

I've been told the new Hikvision script works with TrendNet. I don't own either brand so I can't verify myself.

Since is it not yet part of zoneminder, you will have to add the control script and bits of sql manually to your system.
Visit my blog for ZoneMinder related projects using the Raspberry Pi, Orange Pi, Odroid, and the ESP8266

Thank you very much !!
It's working almost perfectly now !
I used the script you told me about, (HikVision)
but I still had the " 3188 FAT 500 Status read failed: Connection reset by peer" error message.
The problem was in the Control Device (Tab Control) I solved it by removing le port, I settled it this way :
user:pwd@IP
thanks a lot.
