FAST AV-Master card

hi everyone - has anyone ever used a ///Fast AVMaster card with zoneminder? It is (was!) a great card in its day.

Just a long shot!

finally logged in - so I can tell you the version! 1.21.0

It only affected me for a short while, so I am guessing it was something that went bump in the night...

Actually as I am a good few revisions out of date I am thinking it might be time to start over with the latest...

When I try and login I can't .... keeps going back inviting me to enter my password ... interestingly it changes the Login name from admin to admin` - - yes, it puts a little ' apostrophe after the login name. Any suggestions appreciated!

vide conferencing for linux ... easily do-able?

Hi everyone - we absolutely love zoneminder (running very nicely on a really lowly PII) and it occurs to me that there must be a good, simple, video conferencing app out there that I can find ... one that can communicate with netmeeting (h.232?) and is not using all kinds of strange ports so I can r...

creeping up to 93%. Not brave enough to run on internet yet, heaven only knows what trouble I'll get into without all the patches and stuff :-)

(actually I would be interested in running via VPN on my cheapo router - does anyone do that successfully?)

yeah, all 4 cameras are operative.

(off topic: It's a pity they won't show me who's hacking my box :cry:
I'm running IPCOP 'out-of-the-box' and I record an awful lot of intrusion attempts every day, but of course I have no idea if any are successful :oops: )

Regarding part of the thread regarding running on a PII. I currently run (fairly happily) with a 4 port cheap BT card @ about 2-5 fps with a PII 350MHz, 384MB RAM. What's everyone's opinion: Will I see a worthwhile performacne increase going to an AMD 2GHz with 512MB RAM or will I have more problems...
