In the External Live Stream wiki, there is reference to a link: <img src='https://yourserverwanipordns/zm/cgi-bin......

What is the yourserverwanipordns? I assume it's just the ZM server "localhost", or IP?

Thanks,

What are the "official documents" you mention?

Thanks for responding. I'll be using Apache2 for serving up webpages. Some of the other things in the link you provided are kinda strange. I'm not a website developer, per-se. I'm more a dabbler. My Ring service just hiked their price. It's not a game stopper, but I am experimenting to host my own i...

Can I send the camera output to a remote internet webpage?

Shouldn't triggering stop after the first event?

I think the database is created in the install.

Never mind. The attachment tab was staring me right in the face!

Why is the indicator for the Tapo_Misc_IP camera orange? It used to be green, but I'm not sure if it is something I did or not?

Is there a reason I can't include a JPG or GIF in my posts?

I have a jpg screen capture of my issue with ZM.

Thanks,

Maybe this helps: joe@Rays-Win10:/dev$ sudo zmu -d /dev/video1 -q -v WARNING: MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. 02/14/24 17:45:08.831528 zmu[5539].ERR-zm_local_camera.cpp/1469 [Failed to query crop capabilities: Inappropriate ioctl for device] 02/14/24 17:45:...

So, I rebuilt the WSL kernel to include USB and video drivers. Now I can display video in the WSL Ubuntu Linux using the guvcview utility tool.
That pretty much proves the kernel is working properly.

Now, why can't I see the video in ZM?

Any trouble shooting ideas?

Thanks,
Ray

Looks like the WSL does not have the proper drivers for the USB Camera.

So I'm off to attempt to tackle rebuilding the kernel.

Please say a prayer for me!!

I'll let ya'll know how this goes.

I forgot to mention that I also have an IP camera installed and working fine. Maybe you can get a clue from that?

Cannot start capturing with webcam. On the WSL, I have: joe@Rays-Win10:/dev$ lsusb Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 002: ID 046d:085c Logitech, Inc. C922 Pro Stream Webcam Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub I don't see a "...

I'll let you know if I have any luck.
