ZoneMinder should record them just fine. You will have issues with playback and will have to select MJPEG as the playback codec.

for some reason i cant playback video in MJPEG.
so when i set the camera to H.265 it records video i cant playback and if i save as MP4 i think zoneminder is re-encoding it to H.264 MP4.

so i guess there is no direct support for H.265.. is this something on the list?

Works fine for, not optimally but it works.

If you want help debugging this you will have to turn on debugging and post some logs.
