Why isn't my IPCAM steaming?

Post by Roy360 »

[s]Like the title says, I searched up Zoneminder on software.opensuse[dot]org and since I'm using 13.1, I opened that and chose One Click Installation.

YaST opened up, I hit yes for everything, but at the end it says ZoneMinder could not be installed.


Any ideas?

Hardware:
Banana PI Arm7: OpensUSE 13.01

Is Zoneminder incompatible with ARM7?[/s]

Managed to get Zoneminder installed on Lubuntu, but now I can't get the video to stream

I am not sure if its compatible or not but I am sure that you will have to compile it for Arm7 though.
The installer is most likely for x86 processors not armv7.
Download the sourcecode and see if you can compile it before you try installing it.
Cheers,

I just switched back to Lubuntu, and installed though commandline : sudo apt-get install Zoneminder

and it worked. Now I just need to get the cameras working. :D

I'm currently using iSpy on my windows machines, so when I scan for urls, I get:

admin@192.168.1.163:81/videostream.cgi?user=admin&pwd=&resolution=64

I tested this in Firefox, and it worked.

Using the Web GUI, I configured the first camera like this:
Under the General Tab:
NAME
IPCAM1
SOURCE Type
Remote
ENABLED
Checked

Under the Source Tab:
Remote Protocol
HTTP
Remote Method
Simple
Remote Host Name
admin@192.168.1.163
Remote Host Port
81
Remote Host Path
videostream.cgi?user=admin&pwd=&resolution=64


But when I try to open the camera, there is no video.
Am I doing anything wrong?
