kodicom 4400r

Post by joelk »

Prior to getting this card I had the hauppauge impactVCB card installed and working with 2 cameras after I followed the directions here

http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.ph ... _ImpactVCB

but I was only getting 5 fps, so I bought the 4400r from camsecure. Currently all I see is a blue screen with a time stamp.

I tried the suggestions in this thread

http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10429

as well as

http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Kodicom_4400r

with no luck.

ls /dev/video* shows /dev/video0-3

I have a monitor setup with videoforlinux1, ntsc, yuyv, /dev/video0, channel 0. What am I doing wrong?
