Revision as of 08:26, 20 February 2009
Zoneminder will work with almost any capture card that is supported by the linux kernel.
AKA; HCL, Hardware Compatibility List
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
bt878 8 chip 8 input - options bttv card=77,77,77,77,77,77,77,77
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 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.
- Sercomm RC8030 Sold in Scandinavia/UK by Clas Ohlsson art.No. 36-2914. Get video from /img/video.mjpeg (undocumented, but works). Pan/tilt not tried (yet). Video better than Axis205, especially in low light conditions. Good P/T camera for the price, at least in Scandinavia.
- Axis (just about all recent models, including support for PTZ functions)
- Gadspot GS9603 IP Camera with Pan/Tilt, As well as the GS1600(H).
- 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
- Sony SNC-M1 and SNC-M3 wired and wireless - including PTZ support. Possibly other Sony SNC-, RZ-, and IP- series?
- Trendnet TV-IP200 / TV-IP200W, TV-IP300 and the TV-IP400 / TV-IP400W with PTZ control support.
- Veo Observer IP NetCam / Orite IP-Cam IC-301 / Sweex IP Network Camera JA200010 / other clones
- Any network camera that allows access to single JPEG image grabs or some but not all 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!
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.
USB Cameras
- Just Zoom USB cam
- Creative Webcam Pro, Webcam 3
- Logitech QuickCam Express, QuickCam Pro 3000, QuickCam Communicate STX
- Logitech Quickcam Orbit/Sphere (experimental basic pan/tilt control has also published for testing and hacking [4])
- Any OV511 based USB camera [5]
- Any CPIA based USB camera [6]
- Indirectly supports any UVC/V4L2 supported cam such as Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000 using UVC Streaming .
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
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 at linuxquestions.org
