Hello,

I've got a little problem with my ZoneMinder install.
I can't view recorded events as a video, i can only see the stills.

This is my config.
Zoneminder 1.21.3
Pentium 4
512MB
300 GB disk
Debian 3.1 r0a
Apache 2
PHP 5
Mysql ... all the normal stuff

There are no special things in the log files

What platform are you trying to view from? Do you have ffmpeg installed?

I'm trying to view from Windows, using Firefox and IE, both dont work
I have ffmpeg installed and i can view live and recordfed events only stills

Do you go to the stills view directly or just get nothing and then click on the Stills link? I assume you have Options->Tools->ZM_CAN_STREAM set to yes or auto?

I go to the stills by clicking stills, when i click a event i first get nothing then i click stills, the option is on auto and i'm not using caram.. because when i use this the effect is still the same, nu recorded video but only stills

Do you have Options->Video->ZM_VIDEO_STREAM_METHOD set to jpeg?

You won't get anything with IE as it doesn't support mpjpegs. You should with FF though. It might be worth trying with Cambozola just as a test.

Did you have it configured in the Options? If so did it load the applet at all?

I presume there's nothing in the log files (e.g /var/log/messages or /var/log/httpd/error_log) that might indicate a problem with zms?

The applet loaded, en i can view live video with it, but no recorded.
There is nothing in the logs that can indicate a problem...

Yes, it records, but i can only see the recorded stills and not the video
(tryed the mpeg option today, but it doesnt work with that also)
