Pico2000

Balitech: /* Photos */

== PICO2000 DVR card ==
The cheapest DVR card.
With all 4 channels capturing you'll get around 2 fps.
Available under lots of different brand names, like "Star Imavision Video Capture", etc... Generally stated as "Pico2000 compatible"

== Configuration ==

in '''''/etc/modprobe.conf'''''

For one card:
<pre>
options bttv card=77 tuner=4 radio=0 triton1=0 vsfx=0 autoload=0
</pre>
For two cards:
<pre>
options bttv card=77,77 tuner=4,4 radio=0,0 triton1=0 vsfx=0 autoload=0
</pre>
And so on...

Also, if during bootup your system hangs for 5 minutes or more at "Setting clock (utc)": add this '''''before''''' ''options bttv''
<pre>
options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1
</pre>

Hardware Compatibility List

2007-09-06T22:43:09Z

Balitech: /* All other hardware as supported by Linux */

Zoneminder will work with almost any capture card that is supported by the linux kernel.

== Capture Cards ==

[[Pico2000]] - 4 port card, one chip bt878, around 2 fps when using all channels

[[Bt878_4chip_8inputs]] - I don't know the name for it, 4 chips bt878, 8 inputs, around 5 fps when using 2 inputs per chip

[[Hauppauge]]

[[Ituner Spectra 8]] [http://www.ituner.com/spectra.htm]

[[Linux Media Labs LMLBT44]] [http://www.linuxmedialabs.com]

[[Avermedia]]

[[TView 95/99]]

[[WinFast TV2000 XP]]

[[Osprey 100]]

[[Grand X Guard]] [http://www.grandtec.com/xguard.htm]

[[Kodicom 4400r]]

Leadtek WinFast VC 100 - the cheapest bt878 model with no tuner on it, just Com/Svideo in.

Most other BTTV (bt878, bt848) cards, see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/bttv/CARDLIST on your system for a list of some of them.

A note on the bt8x8-based TV-tuner cards: these usually have beside the tuner input, also a Composite and an S-Video input. You can hook up 2 analog cameras to these, and access from ZoneMinder both of them as individual cameras, at max 15Fps. You don't need two separate TV cards for two cameras!

== Analog Cameras ==

Any regular composite or S-video camera connected via a supported capture card. Some analog cameras feature camera control - ZM supports several of these camera's Pan/Tilt/Zoom functions via serial port control, as well as camera Presets, Focus, Iris, etc.
*[[PicturetelControlScript | PictureTel PTZ2N]].

== Network Cameras ==
For Network Cams to work they need to be able to stream MJPEG without the requirment of activex controls. If you see the requirement for the camera calls for IE then there is a good chance it may not work. The other option is to grab JPEG images if the camera supports that option which will work but at a lower frame rate.

* [[Axis]] (just about all recent models, including support for PTZ functions)

* [[Panasonic]] BL-C1, BLC-10, BL-C20, KX-HCM10 etc (including PTZ support)

* [[D-Link]] DCS-1000(W) and DCS-900 - plus other D-Link IP models (This have been hit and miss, not all work with ZM. A partial list of unsupported cameras are inside).

* [[Sony]] SNC-M1 and SNC-M3 wired and wireless - including PTZ support. Possibly other Sony SNC-, RZ-, and IP- series?

* [[Grandtec]] [[Grandtec_WLAN_Camera|WLAN Camera]] WiFi or III - acceptable indoor quality, no infrared-filter (better nightvision) cheap!

* [[Airlink 101]] AIC250W - Just remember to turn off PCRE processing in the Options > Network tab. http://x.x.x.x/video.cgi gives 10 fps 640 x 480 mjpeg feed. Same camera as D-Link DCS-900W / TrendNet IP-200

* [[Conceptronic]] C54NETCAM - Just turn off PCRE processing in the Options > Network tab. http://x.x.x.x/video.cgi gives 10-20 fps 640 x 480 mjpeg feed. Seems to be the same camera as TrendNet IP-100

* OvisLink AirLive WL-5400CAM

* [[Gadspot]] GS9603 IP Camera with Pan/Tilt, As well as the GS1600(H).

*[[Trendnet]] TV-IP300 and the TV-IP400 / TV-IP400W with PTZ control support.

*Intellinet IPCamera with the new firmware.
*Old Intellinet IPCamera (model MWNC-100) with this (http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7500) protocol adapter.

* Any network camera that allows access to single JPEG image grabs or multi-part JPEG feeds.

== Network Digitizers ==

Like Network Cameras, these devices produce a video stream - but they accept an analog video input from a camera or other video source.

*The [[IP9100 | Aviosys IP9100, Models A, B and Plus]] has four analog video inputs. It produces a ZM compatible video stream from one of the inputs, which is selectable via an http GET command. There might even be a control script for ZM that lets you select the active video input using ''ZM's Camera Control Presets!''

== USB Cameras ==

Just Zoom USB cam

Creative Webcam Pro, Webcam 3

[[Logitech QuickCam Express]], QuickCam Pro 3000, QuickCam Communicate STX

Logitech Quickcam Orbit/Sphere (experimental basic pan/tilt control has also published for testing and hacking [http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=9788])

Philips PCVC 730K, PCVC 740K

Any Philips based USB camera [http://www.smcc.demon.nl/webcam]

Any CPIA based USB camera [http://webcam.sourceforge.net]

'''Note that most USB cameras that can use Video4Linux, and so can be used by ZoneMinder, have older chipsets and can be hard to find new.'''
'''Note that PWC drivers are not included in the kernel. Some distribution's add them in and other may not. Here are some relevant links.'''

Kodicom 4400r

2007-09-06T22:35:44Z

Balitech: /* Two Cards in a single box **** */

This card works a little different than the others. The inputs are not bound to any spacific bt878 chip but go through a crosspoint video switch. The way this works is you have inputs (channles) 0-15 and you can assign them to any of the video devices (bt878 chips /dev/video 0-3)
 /dev/video0 (3) assigns composit input 3 to the first device
 /dev/video1 (0) assigns composit input 0 to the second device etc...
More information can be obtained at [http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/Kodicom_4400R linuxtv.org]
More notes from the forum [[General_Notes#Kodicom_Capture_Cards]]

==Add a single card==
modprobe bttv gbuffers=16 card=133,132,133,133 
or 
edit your modprobe.conf to include 
options bttv gbuffers=16 card=133,132,133,133 
requires a 2.6.12 kernel but fully supported in a 2.6.13 
I tried and failed on the 2.6.12 but succeeded on the 2.6.13
