Hello

we installed Zoneminder 1.36.26 on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS We have Configured a AXIS M3038 CAM and it shows in the Console connected ( green)

in the log i get

20.09.22, 10:06:36 MESZ zmc_m1 15812 INF Einfahrt: 8700 - Capturing at 12.46 fps, capturing bandwidth 9008556bytes/sec Analysing at 0.00 fps

And the monitor shows no Picture

if we do the URL configured in the Zoneminder http://IP.of.the cam/mjpg/video.mjpg?camera=2 we habe a Picture

Kind regards

I have not been able to find much on this camera. It is likely it will work with RTSP and camera pass through but finding the stream parameters is the trick. You also need to match the video resolution exactly to the camera stream.
One trick I use is to get the cam to stream in VLC then use the stream UPL in Zoneminder. I had some very old Axix cams at one time and they worked very well in Zoneminder.

Also try this:

Try Source Type = Ffmpeg
Source Path = rtsp://<userID>:<passw>@<ip>:554/axis-media/media.amp

If the logs say capturing then it is capturing.

The lack of picture means that your apache config is incorrect with respect to cgi-bin. Your logs are likely filled with a message directing you to this section of the docs:

Ignore the cambozola stuff, it isn't relevant anymore. Go to option 2, configuring cgi-bin.
