So with an IP camera zm is motion processing every frame? (30fps in this case)

Actually 4x16=64 cores!

Yes, that 16 core Proliant should do fine. However, here are a couple of things worth noting: Mapped memory is the norm now so you do not need to tweak shmall/shmax I remember that now.

Sorry I didn't specify the frame rate. I would like at least 5fps. Anything above that would be great as well. In alarm mode I have run them up to 15fps.

Given a beefy server... can zm scale to 50 ip cams running at 320x240/greyscale with motion detection? If answer is yes next question is how much beef would that take? An old spreadsheet I used for zm 1.25 indicates the following: Pixel Width: 320 Pixel Height: 240 Total Pixels: 76800 color bits: 8 ...

Thanks! Do you plan on forking to continue development?

Are there any mastertheknife docs available anywhere? Some of the commit notes look great but a summary of the project would be good to read.

Turning off multi buffers fixed the problem. Thank you VERY much!!!

I have a new bluecherry pv183 16 port card. I installed zm from apt-get under ubuntu 12.04. The install went great and I have 8 cams working fine from /dev/video0-7 on channel 0.

When we were in Key West Florida this summer I noticed a web cam on the street. Back at home I connected to it and was astounded with the quality of the streaming. (The link is below) There is even good sound. Even when local my cams are a bit lagging and I have to keep the frame rate low (around 5)...

I did a search here and on google and didn't find an answer. No offense but your solution is a pita for me. I was hoping something in the gui allowed this as I don't have access to a command line. I tried the filter as it has an option to "create video for all matches" but it does not appe...

Using 1.24.2 is there a way to generate video from multiple events that will result in a single mpg file?

Yep. I'm running 640x480 color. You probably need to change the memory settings in zm.
