Monitor - Not Capturing on fresh install of ZoneMinder

Post by shabbaranks »

Hi,
Ive recently setup ZoneMinder and have added a monitor to which I can see the stream using a web browser or VLC etc. If I try and add the camera to my ZoneMinder installation I get "Monitor Not Capturing" within the console. The camera is a Hikvision and should work based on the documentation - here is the log

Code: Select all

All fixed - all I needed to do was install install libvlc-dev libvlccore-dev vlc
