INSTALL ZONEMINDER + MJPG_STREAMER
#become root
#Download & Install Ubuntu
##apt-get install zoneminder
#Install mjpg_streamer
##apt-get install libjpeg-dev subversion imagemagick
##svn co https://mjpg-streamer.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mjpg-streamer mjpg-streamer
##cd mjpg-streamer/mjpg-streamer
##make
##make install
#Test mjpg_streamer
##export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
##mjpg_streamer -i "input_uvc.so -d /dev/video1 -r 320x240" -o "output_http.so -p 8080 -w ./www"
##point a browser to http://ip.address.of.your.machine:8080/stream.html
#Setup Monitor in ZoneMinder
##General
###Source Type = "Remote"
##Source
###Remote Protocol = "HTTP"
###Remote Method = "Simple"
###Remote Host Name = "localhost"
###Remote Host Port = "8080"
###Remote Host Path = "/?action=stream"
###Remote Image Colors = "24 bit color"
###Capture Width (pixels) = "320"
###Capture Height (pixels) = "240"
#Check your Monitor & Hopefully it works now!
NOTES
*Host Port should be whatever you set it to in the mjpg_streamer call
*I had to set mjpg_streamer & zoneminder to 320x240 to get it to work
*I had to chose /dev/video1 because the default (/dev/video0) was the built in webcam on my laptop
ERRORS
*2012-09-17 20:57:30.000889 zms 3684 ERR Terminating, last frame sent time 10.011587 secs more than maximum of 10.000000 zm_monitor.cpp 3639
**This seems to be caused by incorrect resolution (or possibly other settings) in mjpg_streamer+zoneminder (ie: a resolution it can't handle... try 320 x 240)
*2012-09-17 20:16:33.085866 zms 2484 ERR Got unexpected memory map file size 9217192, expected 36865192 zm_monitor.cpp 364
**This seems to be caused by having a resolution that is wrong and/or by having some memory settings wrong.
**edit /etc/sysctl.conf and type "kernel.shmall = 167772160" and "kernel.shmmax = 167772160" at the bottom of the file. This appears to fix the memory map issue. Error may still occur if some ZoneMinder settings are wrong.
