Created the HiDef stream as Cam1, LowDef as Cam1-low.  Linked from Cam1 to Cam1-low.  Cam1-low is where the motion detection happens.  When it alarms and starts recording the HiDef feed also starts recording.

As I understand things: This is just pulling images one at a time, instead of watching a video stream. Seems like not the best way of configuring things for this camera.
Link from Cam1 to Cam1-low. Cam1-low is where the motion detection happens. When it alarms and starts recording the HiDef feed also starts recording.

Grandstream Networks produces a line of IP cameras, many with full HD capabilities.

Setup instructions Instructions provided by Grandstream to set up one of their cameras on a VMS Zoneminder install.

GXV-3672-FHD IP Camera

Gxv3672 sideview 1.jpg


GXV-3272-FHD Full HD camera, nighttime capability, supports a power over ethernet connection.

Notes

From Fedora 20, CentOS 6.5 or Scientific Linux 6.5 using vlc:

  • vlc rtsp://<ip addres>/0 - The HiDef stream
  • vlc rtsp://<ip addres>/4 - The LowDef stream

That showed me the camera was working well, had a stable stream with good resolution on both streams.

I started out using zm 1.26 and had a few minor issues that I was working through. Then I got ahold of the 1.27beta and pretty much all my minor issues were fixed. Now running under 1.27 things are working smooth.

Camera Settings

Camera settings that appear to work well:

Primary Stream
Codec H264
Resolution 1920x1080
Bit Rate 4096
Max Frame Rate 10
Secondary Stream
Codec H264
Resolution 352x288
Bit Rate 384
Max Frame Rate 10

ZM Monitors

Create two monitors, one for each of the streams.

HiDef
Name Cam1
Source Type Ffmpeg
Function Nodect
Source Path rtsp://<ip address>/0?tcp
Width & Height Match the camera's Primary stream settings
LowDef
Name Cam1-low
Source Type Ffmpeg
Function Modect
Source Path rtsp://<ip address>/4?tcp
Width & Height Match the camera's Secondary stream settings

Link from Cam1 to Cam1-low. Cam1-low is where the motion detection happens. When it alarms and starts recording the HiDef feed also starts recording.
