Can't add usb camera to Zoneminder -1.34.18-focal1

Post by bkjaya1952 »

Zoneminder 1.34.18-focal1 issued on (2020-08-06)

When I try to add USB camera monitor to ZM-Consol , I have got a popup message stating "Palette must be set to a valid value & Format must be set to a valid value" .
I have set Device format = 255 & Capture palette to 0
The similar problem was in Zoneminder master 1.35.5~20200714143209-focal and corrected after the release of Zoneminder master 1.35.5~20200721193536-focal . Please refer the following link

Yes, looks like the "normal" values have gotten messed up.

I think , the method adopted by Mr Isaac to solve the usb camera problem in Zoneminder master 1.35.5~20200714143209-focal , may be used for Zoneminder -1.34.18-focal1 also
