Yes... you may have heard the Linux is going into CCTV world! On this tutorial we are going to
install zoneminder on Ubuntu 9.04 32bit.
Note that this walkthrough is taken from
http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_9.04_server_32bit with some modification due to update to ffmpeg module.
This also a solution to ffmpeg error on compiling zoneminder.We assume here you guys already installed the Ubuntu Server with LAMP and the SSH server if you guys want to do remote SSH,and change the IP of your server to static IP.
- Do the "
apt-get update" and then "
apt-get upgrade" to update your distribution to the latest
one.
- After that install webmin (optional), install sysvconfig: "
apt-get install sysvconfig", enter; now
run it: "sysvconfig", enter , now choose "enable/disable", also
ensure webmin is checked if you want it; back to the main screen, hit "finished" to save; exit it;
- Ensure you had your capture card recognized, in my case i'm using Kodicom 8800 DVR card.

Notes :
- There are some fix to also include support for Safari users or people surfing with the iPhone's built in Safari browser.Also, there is no need to do anything for Google chrome because its being detected as Mozilla\firefox.If you are using the JPEG streaming mode (Motion JPEG) with the browser Opera or Safari, or even using your iPhone, there is no reason to use cambozola because all those browsers support MJPEG natively.The problem: with ZM's CAN_STREAM setting set to "auto", ZM's auto detection believes those browsers don't support MJPEG, although they do.This is because ZM's auto detection is slightly outdated and this fix will update it.
You can do the changes manually or use the patch below.EDIT: If after this fix you experience flickering in Opera, here is how you fix it:
http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=61493(or if you want the easiest way, you can download the
functions.php file from
HERE, and overwrite the file function.php on /var/www/zm/includes/function.php)
- In file include/functions.php, change the following which is at around line 823 (May vary from installation to installation):
elseif (ereg( 'Opera ([0-9].[0-9]{1,2})',$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],$logVersion))to
elseif (ereg( 'Opera/([0-9].[0-9]{1,2})',$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],$logVersion))- In around line 876 (May vary from installation to installation),change:
function canStreamNative()
{
return( ZM_CAN_STREAM == "yes" || ( ZM_CAN_STREAM == "auto"
&& (isNetscape() || isKonqueror()) ) );
}to
function canStreamNative()
{
return( ZM_CAN_STREAM == "yes" || ( ZM_CAN_STREAM == "auto" && (isNetscape
() || isKonqueror() || isOpera() || isSafari()) )
);
}
- In around line 840 (May vary from installation to installation),find this:
function isNetscape()
{
getBrowser( $browser, $version );
return( $browser == "mozilla" );
}to
function isOpera() {
getBrowser( $browser, $version );
return( $browser == "opera" );
}
function isSafari() {
getBrowser( $browser, $version );
return( $browser == "safari" );
}- For Kodicom KMC-8800 there's a fix, make a new file on /etc/modprobe.d/bttv.conf and place the option, for
for 1 card :
options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1
options bttv gbuffers=16 card=102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102 radio=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 tuner=4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4 chroma_agc=1 combfilter=2 full_luma_range=1 coring=1 autoload=0for 2 card :
options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1
options bttv gbuffers=16 card=102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102,102 radio=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 tuner=4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4 chroma_agc=1 combfilter=2 full_luma_range=1 coring=1 autoload=0- There's a issue with shared memory with my installation - i don't know if you guys got the same issue too, if so... just insert below line to /etc/sysctl.conf
vim /etc/sysctl.conf
then insert :
kernel.shmall = 134217728
kernel.shmmax = 134217728
to load this setting immediately
sysctl -p- If you want to use another partition as storage just create a symlink from /var/www/zm/events to zoneminder default folder :
ln -s /path/to/your/partition /var/www/zm/events
