I'm seeing this too, in fact on my BT848 based four port card initially three of the four were in color, but then they started not working. I set them are to grey and things seem to be working fairly well. Although I seemed to get a lot of lockups while playing with the configuration. After a final ...

Look at contributions forum for add secure smtp I assume you mean this: http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11703&highlight=secure+smtp It looks like a good place to start. Seems the version I installed via Ubuntu 8.04 Synaptic is 1.22.3 not 1.23.x, not sure if it matters or not. t...

Perhaps someone should add that ZM seems to require the X server be in 24-bit color mode (I was using 16-bit color as required for a different application). Once I fi...

Unless the capture card has on-board compression, I suspect you'll run out of PCI bandwidth before running out of CPU. 640x480 30fps 8-bit video is ~9MB/sec, seems low compared to the PCI 132MB/s burst rate, but sustained rates much above 25MB/s are very tough to obtain when you factor in disk usage...

I'm in the same boat. My GV-600 card is old enough to have come with a parallel port dongle and I get the same bttv errors as jefferywilkins when I boot the ZM LiveCD. All I can get in XawTV is a blue or black screen -- it acts like /dev/video is working but it never returns any video data, probably...
