I’m planning to set up a CCTV system to watch around a building. Anybody running Shinobi or something? And if so, what hardware are you using? I bought some cheapo v380s but the ones I got are honestly hot garbage.

    I take it zoneminder doesn’t support HW acceleration? Frigate uses very little CPU due to running OpenVINO and VAAPI, but I don’t think it supports hardware as old as the Xeon v4

      It uses ffmpeg so you could use hardware acceleration, but I just have it recording 4 cameras direct to disk and decoding the substreams for restreaming to a monitor elsewhere

      That being said, zoneminder is all kinds of jank and a bit slow
