Zoneminder will work with almost any capture card that is supported by the linux kernel.
Capture Cards
Pico2000 - 4 port card, one chip bt878, around 2 fps when using all channels
Bt878_4chip_8inputs - I don't know the name for it, 4 chips bt878, 8 inputs, around 5 fps when using 2 inputs per chip
Leadtek WinFast VC 100 - the cheapest bt878 model with no tuner on it, just Com/Svideo in.
Most other BTTV (bt878, bt848) cards, see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/bttv/CARDLIST on your system for a list of some of them.
A note on the bt8x8-based TV-tuner cards: these usually have beside the tuner input, also a Composite and an S-Video input. You can hook up 2 analog cameras to these, and access from ZoneMinder both of them as individual cameras, at max 15Fps. You don't need two separate TV cards for two cameras!
Analog Cameras
Any regular composite or svideo camera connected via a supported capture card.
Some of these analog cameras feature camera control as well.
Network Cameras
For Network Cams to work they need to be able to stream MJPEG without the requirment of activex controls. If you see the requirement for the camera calls for IE then there is a good chance it may not work. The other option is to grab JPEG images if the camera supports that option which will work but at a lower frame rate.
- Axis (just about all recent models, including support for PTZ functions)
- Panasonic BLC-10, KX-HCM10 etc (including PTZ support)
- D-Link DCS-1000(W) and DCS-900 - plus other D-Link IP models (This have been hit and miss, not all work with ZM. A partial list of unsupported cameras are inside).
- Sony SNC-M1 and SNC-M3 wired and wireless - possibly other Sony IP models?
- Grandtec WLAN Camera WiFi or III - acceptable indoor quality, no infrared-filter (better nightvision) cheap!
- Airlink 101 AIC250W - Just remember to turn off PCRE processing in the Options > Network tab. http://x.x.x.x/video.cgi gives 10 fps 640 x 480 mjpeg feed. Same camera as D-Link DCS-900W / TrendNet IP-200
- Conceptronic C54NETCAM - Just turn off PCRE processing in the Options > Network tab. http://x.x.x.x/video.cgi gives 10-20 fps 640 x 480 mjpeg feed. Seems to be the same camera as TrendNet IP-100
- OvisLink AirLive WL-5400CAM
- Gadspot GS9603 IP Camera with Pan/Tilt, As well as the GS1600(H).
- Trendnet TV-IP300 - Just remember to turn 1.0 in ZM_HTTP_VERSION in the Options > Network tab. In the x.x.x.x/cgi-bin/video.jpg gives 352 x 240 jpg.
- Intellinet IPCamera with the new firmware.
- Old Intellinet IPCamera (model MWNC-100) with this (http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7500) protocol adapter.
- Any network camera that allows access to single JPEG image grabs or multi-part JPEG feeds.
Network Digitizers
Like Network Cameras, these devices produce a video stream - but they accept an analog video input from a camera or other video source.
- The Aviosys IP9100, Models A, B and Plus has four analog video inputs. It produces a ZM compatible video stream from one of the inputs, which is selectable via an http GET command. There might even be a control script for ZM that lets you select the active video input using ZM's Camera Control Presets!
USB Cameras
Just Zoom USB cam
Creative Webcam Pro, Webcam 3
Logitech QuickCam Express, QuickCam Pro 3000
Philips PCVC 730K, PCVC 740K

Any OV511 based USB camera [4]
Any Philips based USB camera [5]
Any CPIA based USB camera [6]
Note that most USB cameras that can use Video4Linux, and so can be used by ZoneMinder, have older chipsets and can be hard to find new. Note that PWC drivers are not included in the kernel. Some distribution's add them in and other may not. Here are some relevant links. Old Maintainer Current PWC Maintainer
