Problem displaying 16 cameras with PV155 card

Post by mikey207 »

I am trying to display 16 cameras using a PV155 card. The firs 8 cameras display OK, using /dev/video0/0,1,2,3 and /dev/video1/0,1,2,3. When adding monitor at /dev/video0/2 all of the /dev/video0 devices go red in the console and the messages log start displaying 'can't find process with command of 'zma -5 5' and 'can't find process with command of zma -5'

Rdmesg follows:

I have a PV155 card too.

I have

Code: Select all

option bttv card=77.77.77.77
In my /etc/modprob.d/options file and I can use all 16 ports.

That setting and reboot your PC.
