iQeye 511 and 753

[Riley-NZL]

Hi guys, I've got an iQeye 753 and a couple 511's running surveillance in a small office, would anyone know if these will work with Zoneminder (not on supported hardware list).

I can access the cameras through a browser on the local network using these methods:

http://"cameras IP Address" - Web interface using Java app for viewing and settings up camera.
"Cameras IP Address"/mjpg/video.mjpg - Simple Live feed
"Cameras IP Address"/now.jpg?snap=spush - Simple Live feed

Any idea if these will work with Zoneminder, or what settings I should be trying when adding them to zone minder.

I tried the below settings but just get a Red screen from all cameras:

Thanks PacoLM

Seems to be working now using the following settings:


Only problem I'm having now is it seems to be continuously recording 10min long events even though nothing is moving in the frame, is image noise enough to trigger an event?

Congratulations!

Now you have to fine tune your alarms settings, I recommend you to read this https://wiki.zoneminder.com/Understandi ... or_Dummies

Hope it helps!

Thanks! Seems to be working fine now I've set it to Modect, had to tweak the settings a bit, probably due to the higher resolution of 753 (3MP). One thing I am having trouble with is settings a slightly larger pre/post recording buffer, I amnaged to get the lower resolution 511's up to 100buffer and 50 pre/post recording buffer, but if I set the 753 to anything higher then 60/30/30 for Buffer/pre/post, it goes offline. Do I need to assign more memory or something like that?

I'm also quite surprised how little load there is on the computer, averaging about 2.5% CPU load and using ~400 of 2000MB of RAM with both camera set to 6FPS recording 12FPS alarm.
