Editing /etc/modprobe.conf with "options bttv card=89" does not change video problem. The output to the above commands is correct with the changes made though.

Thanks,

Camera image problem

I've loaded up the latest live CD and it all seems fine, but I can't get a reasonable image out of my camera (PictureTel PTZ-4N on an Osprey 210 Capture card). It works great under Knopix v3.7 with xwatv but I can't seem to get a decent image in either xwatv or zoneminder with the live CD version in...

Ok... I know I'm killing you guys, but the instructions look like they might actually help me. I just need to know what to do with all of the "OR" options? I don't know how to decided which one to do?

Sounds like I'm in the same boat as you guys. I'm pretty experienced in UNIX, but I've nearly killed myself trying to get Motion to work and just recently stumbled upon ZoneMinder.
