Hi! I'm neebie to zoneminder so please bear with me. I'm using CentOS 5 and Zoneminder 1.24.2
I have installed zoneminder. I can access the console through x.x.x.x/zm. There is no access login so I cannot determine if I'm admin user or not. My question is:
1. How can I view the camera? Most tutorial only said just visit x.x.x.x/zm but all I can see is the console interface. Is there a page wherein I can only view cameras
2. I'm using PICO card, how could I verify if my card is working?
how to access camera
Yes. After I add a monitor. No camera. If it suppose to show up immediately, then why there's no camera appear? Here is some of the snippet on my dmesg:

First what capture card do you have?
Is it really a type 77 card?
Where is the vodoo3 stuff coming from?
Can you view it in xawtv?
Can you do a screen grab (jpeg snapshot) in xawtv?
I think you might have the incorrect card configured potentially. If the card is not configured right, it will not work no matter what settings you put in ZM.
