Hi Karol,

I'm not sure what you mean here. Do you mean capturing sounds or just playing them when an alarm occurs?

ZM can play an alarm sound but only through the web interface and only when monitoring a camera. However it should be a fairly trivial task write a script maybe by adapting one of the ZM scripts which checks the shared memory status or event count and making that do something, or but just calling zmu to check the status.

ZM is designed to be 'open' enough that people can create their own additions to it.

If you do create one, let us know!

Cheers,

Phil,
