But KO with V4L2

jpp@jpp-laptop:~$ zmu -d /dev/video1 -V2 -q -v
Error, failed to query crop /dev/video1: Invalid argument
jpp@jpp-laptop:~$

in zmdc.log there are :

10/03/10 12:17:33.072315 zmdc[10135].INF [Starting pending process, zmc -d /dev/video0]
10/03/10 12:17:33.074155 zmdc[10135].INF ['zmc -d /dev/video0' starting at 10/10/03 12:17:33, pid = 10410]
10/03/10 12:17:33.135364 zmdc[10135].ERR ['zmc -d /dev/video0' exited abnormally, exit status 6]

It's impossible to see video from monitor in zoneminder :(

no pb with xawtv
xawtv -c /dev/video0
is OK.

Thanks
