That was the problem I didn't have wget. I thought the message was referring to the file on the internet. Now for ./configure I'm getting no such file or directory. I have no idea why. I'm in the unpacked ZoneMinder directory, ZoneMinder-1.27.0 What could be the problem ? and Are there some up to da...

Why doesn't it work?
wget https://github.com/ZoneMinder/ZoneMinde ... 7.0.tar.gz

Same thing, wget: no such file or directory

I've been trying to figure out how to build zoneminder. Do you know why wget http://www.zoneminder.com/downloads/ZoneMinder-1.25.0.tar.gz results in wget: no such file or directory? Actually I have to do it like this: sh wget http://www.zoneminder.com/downloads/ZoneMinder-1.25.0.tar.gz or it doesn't...

When you say "I would try it with libvlc" I have no idea what that means. How do I switch to libvlc?

rtsp://192.168.0.7:554/play2.sdp It works without the authentication so I did learn 1 thing, that the authentication that I set up in the set up is for the web page that came with the camera and not the camera itself. Now presumably I have to use that same url somewhere in Zoneminder. Zoneminder see...

I did finally get it to work in vlc by removing windows firewall.
that won't help me get it working in zoneminder except to prove that the camera works for streaming.

The camera is The DCS-942L, which is listed
Sorry, that was my typo in the subject

Doesn't the fact that its listed on this page mean its supported? (I just noticed that the thread subject says Camera Settings for D-link DCS943L which is wrong. the camera is D-link DCS942L http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/D-Link I tried :554/play2.sdp and /play2.sdp with and without authen...

I'm probably just doing it completely wrong. I have no idea where to start to see the camera image in VLC. When I look at "open capture device, there's nothing there.

In vlc, if I add http as the destination, it wants a path. I have no idea what to put in there. I asked in the videolan group but no one has answered.

Well ok, thanks. But I am completely stumped as to how to get the camera working in zoneminder. What else can I check?

Can you be more specific?
I don't know what that means.

What's the difference between a monitor that's working and a monitor that's not working? I mean besides the fact that the image is not there.

Thanks for the clarification.

Yes. Sorry, I thought that was obvious. The monitor has a black box without any image. When I look at the logs, those are the errors I'm getting.
