Revision as of 01:21, 11 January 2015
Zoneminder will work with almost any capture card that is supported by the linux kernel. You may find additional details about supported hardware in the part of the forums. Also if you find something in the forums that is missing from the wiki ADD IT.
Capture Cards
Camsecure PCI Express video capture
Leadtek WinFast VC 100 - the cheapest bt878 model with no tuner on it, just Com/Svideo in.
LinkDelight CCTV H.264 4CH DVR Card
Provideo PV- series (Bluecherry) Bluecherry - BC-H16480A TView 95/99
Videocards with Philips saa7134 chipset
IEI Technology Corp. IVC-268G-R20
bt8x8 Cards
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!
Pico2000 - 4 port card, one chip bt878, around 2 fps when using all channels
Bt878_4chip_8inputs -4 chips bt878, 8 inputs, around 5 fps when using 2 inputs per chip
bt878 8 chip 8 input - This card is supplied with D-sub to 8 BNC connector and uses the bt878 chip for each input allowing full frame rates and quality. See Kodicom 8800 for more information.
Geovision GV250 bt878a single chip 4 inputs - This capture Card is supplied with 4 video inputs but with NO audio channel
Most other BTTV (bt878, bt848) cards, see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/bttv/CARDLIST on your system for a list of some of them.
Analog Cameras
Any regular composite or S-video camera connected via a supported capture card. Some analog cameras feature camera control - ZM supports several of these camera's Pan/Tilt/Zoom functions via serial port control, as well as camera Presets, Focus, Iris, etc.
Network Cameras
For Network Cams to work they need to be able to stream MJPEG without the requirement 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.
Any network camera that allows access to single JPEG image grabs or some but not all multi-part JPEG feeds.

- Grandtec WLAN Camera WiFi or III - acceptable indoor quality, no infrared-filter (better nightvision) cheap!
- 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.
- OvisLink AirLive WL-5400CAM

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.
- Synectics E100 encoder
- 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!
With the yoics Aviosys 9100 firmware at http://www.yoics.com/?p=28, ZoneMinder can directly access all four ports via /usr/yoicsX.jpg as the remote host path, where X is 0 - 3.
- Bosch VIP X1 Single-channel video encoder [1]
- Video cameras & safes for antitheft purpose on the website http://www.infosafe.fr
USB Cameras
- Just Zoom USB cam
- Creative Webcam Pro, Webcam 3, LIVE! Cam OPTIA PRO (V4L2, Chan 0, PAL, YUYV)
- Most UVCvideo cameras, including: Advent AWC213, Creative Labs VF0420, Logitech QuickCam Express, Logitech HD C270, QuickCam Pro 3000, QuickCam Pro 4000, QuickCam Communicate STX/Deluxe, Logitech Webcam Pro 9000, and Webcam C250
- Logitech Quickcam Orbit/Sphere (experimental basic pan/tilt control has also published for testing and hacking [2])
- Any OV511 based USB camera [3]
- Any CPIA based USB camera [4]
- Confirmed basic functionality with Microsoft Lifecam VX 5000 using UVC Streaming method
Note that most USB cameras that can use Video4Linux/V4L2, and so can be used by ZoneMinder. Some 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:
X10 Devices
The only device that really needs to be compatable with ZM is the Transceiver, all other x10 devices comunicate through that device.
- CM11 Bi-Directional Transceiver
Other X10 notes:
All other hardware as supported by Linux
To find out if your hardware is supported, check the HCL
Plug Computers
Guruplug Server Plus -> How to install Zoneminder
Raspberry Pi
ZM 1.25 is already in Raspbian. Newer development packages are available.
You will want libjpeg-turbo from the following repository by adding to your /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://zarrenspry.info/repos/apt/raspbian testing main
deb-src http://zarrenspry.info/repos/apt/raspbian testing main
Add gpg by
wget -O - http://zarrenspry.info/zarrenspry.gpg.key%7Capt-key add -
apt-get install libturbojpeg8 libturbojpeg8-dev
If using the Pi camera, you will need to enable it in raspi-config as well as loading the v4l2 kernel module by adding the following to your /etc/modules
bcm2835-v4l2
Although the camera will can capture high res, you don't have enough RAM currently to do so. Especially if you have the early 256MB model. So ust stick to 640x480.
You should be able to get around 20fps, but if you do anything involving the CPU you will get underruns.
