EasyCap Setup

#1 Post by cTurtle98 »

I have an easycap plugged into my debian headless server I want to use for my security system.
I am using zoneminder for the control panel.
I also have a usb webcam plugged in to watch my server computers

Heres some information:

Code: Select all

seaurchin@98SeaTurtles-91:~$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 18ec:5850 Arkmicro Technologies Inc. 
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 046d:08da Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Messanger
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Code: Select all

seaurchin@98SeaTurtles-91:~$ ls /dev/video*
video0  video1
video0 is my webcam and that is working

when I add video1 as a source on zoneminder on channel 0 I don't get anything
there are 32 ntsc channels so I really dont want to just go through them all and see if I can find it

any Ideas?
