What's the name of your ZOneMinder box? Is it local, or on the internet? Your log shows that the plugin is attempting to connect to a ZoneMinder server called "zoneminder". Is this the name of your server that's running zoneminder? If not, you need to edit the settings for the plugin and tell it the name or IP address of your ZoneMinder server.

Oh, and as it's not a proxy issue you can turn the proxy back on!

Sorry for bumping an old thread here but I was wondering if the zoneminder addon is available to atv2 users? I didn't see it in the official repo and wanted to double check before manually installing it. Thanks for any help!

Has anyone been able to install the ZoneMinder Add-On recently on XBMC on an Apple TV 2?

I find the search for this very frustrating...

Any help appreciated.

Thanks!

MT

I'll try to release this for Eden soon, and it'll then appear in the official repo from within XBMC.

Is there a guide you can point me to, in order to install the zoneminder server on an xbmcbuntu installation. Or will I have to do a full Ubuntu installation and run xbmc on top, to get the zoneminder server running.

I manually installed v. 1.1.1 of the Zoneminder plugin from zip on Ubuntu Eden and it works well. The issue I am having is that when opening a camera stream, the first couple of seconds the image looks great then it gets so pixelated as it streams that the image cannot really be made out.

I am capturing at 5 fps at 640x480 on the Zoneminder server (separate box) and streaming via jpeg. I have ffmpeg enabled as well. Streaming in a browser on a different computer works perfectly and sharp. I have tried several different settings in the plugin from .1k stream to 5M stream wit no real discernible difference

The weird part is that the stream in XBMC starts out very sharp then about after 1-2 seconds it gets pixelated very badly.

Any suggestions as where to look to try to clean up the play back in XMBC?
