My Maginon IPC-20C camera gets no picture

Post by AndyRay »

I have attached an IPC-20C camera remotely, but just get a black video window. Log erro is: Captured image does not match expected size, check the width, height and color depth. The camera has a video resolution of 640x480 at 15 fps and 320x240 at 30 fps. Both I have tried without success, although I do not know where to submit fps accurate.

I hope someone can help me here. :idea:

Thank you

Hi,

Have you tried to set the same resolution in your monitor setup? (link -> http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.ph ... g_Monitors )
You will need to set these parameters -> Capture Width (pixels) & Capture Height (pixels) in the source tab of your camera settings
In this link you may find the correct path to get the image using Zoneminder (http://www.ispyconnect.com/man.aspx?n=Maginon)

Hope it helps,

PacoLM

Thanks for the quick reply, my settings were all correct. I have started all cameras on the browser, then oh ZoneMinder has the images of Kamerea displayed.

After some tests, I tried the foscam clone configuration that worked:
