hauppage ImpactVCB not working with Ubuntu 12.04

[gdulisse]

I am in the process of upgrading my zoneminder install and have set up a new system with Ubuntu 12.04 Server.

I have installed Zoneminder 1.25.0 and everything except my capture card is not working.
I have a Hauppage ImpactVCB card.

The OS recognises it but there seems to be an issue capturing any video from zoneminder.
My settings are:

Source Type: local
Device Path : /dev/video0
Capture Method: Video For Linux version 1
Device Channel: 1
Device Format: NTSC
Capture Palette: RGB24

When I use these I get the following errors in zoneminder:

2012-08-16 07:48:06.110860 zmdc 1973 ERR 'zmc -d /dev/video0' exited abnormally, exit status 255 zmdc.pl null
2012-08-16 07:48:06.107267 zmc_dvideo0 2742 FAT Failed to get picture attributes: Inappropriate ioctl for device zm_local_camera.cpp 540

Not really sure what is going on. The OS detects the card and I have even added a /etc/modprobe.d/bttv.conf.

HELP!!!!

Ok, figured it out.

Settings for Ubuntu 12.04 and Zoneminder 1.25.0 are

Source Type: local
Device Path : /dev/video0
Capture Method: Video For Linux version 2
Device Channel: 0
Device Format: NTSC
Capture Palette: BGR24


make sure your Hauppage is recognized by your OS first. If all is well this will work. Make sure to set the zoneminder option in Config panel LOCAL_BGR_INVERT to checked.
