pb with console : rtsp + MJPEG and all uptodate

Post by gilles »

Hi all,

My system is an 10.04.4 ubuntu server 32 bits LTS. My zoneminder is a 1.25. installed from source.

My camera is a vivotek ip7330 which is working in rtsp and http by vlc or others players.

In zoneminder 1.25, I can see in JPEG and rtsp from the MPeg4 camera stream.

If I use MJPEG, I can see a blank screen in the console view (my sharememory is ok).

Is RTSP working in zoneminder 1.25, if yes what we have to do ?

Hi,

No I don't use FFMPEG mode.

Where I can find instructions.

I will try.

Thank you.

edit: I configure the ffmpeg mode and same thing when I select mjpeg, no image. If I select jpeg , it works. So the result is the same as rtsp mode.

Zonminder don't like mjpeg with rtsp.
