Zoneminder USB Cam

Well it turns out you don't need your own scripts, zoneminder can natively use a USB camera at 15FPS!

Taken from:

These settings worked for me with a normal usb camera on i386 Ubuntu 17.04:

  • Device Path: /dev/video0
  • Capture Method: Video For Linux version2
  • Device Format: PAL
  • Capture Palette: YUYV
  • Capture Width: 800
  • Capture Height: 600
I do see if I browse to zoneminder though, apache2 stays at 100% afterwards.
