wauwau 0 Posted September 28, 2016 Hi folks, running several IP cams, mostly Axis, but maybe also soon Vivotek. Anyway, looking for a linux distribution which is purely generated for CCTV (on IP cams), it should be installed on the computer on just configure a few paramters, as soon as powered up it should just live stream from an IP-Cam. Is there anything like this? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wauwau 0 Posted September 29, 2016 Isn't ZoneMinder more like a recorder? And as far as I know, it is only webbased and using JPG (only some frames per seconds, not fluent) . I mean the main focus is simply to display the live stream - as far in realtime as possible and as smooth as possible and with the best solution as possible. I am not sure if a pure web-based solution can perform this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
