Re: [PLUG] Security Camera Monitoring Software Recommendation Wanted

[Chris Thistlethwaite via plug <plug@lists.phillylinux.org>]

I've messed with Shinobi a bit (https://moeiscool.github.io/Shinobi/), but always find myself going back to ZoneMinder. ZM works fine-ish, though I usually end up trying to find something new and more efficient. I've had some issues over the years with ZM just being a hog for system resources once you start running a few 1080 streams. Frankly, the reason I go back to ZM so much is there isn't much out there for FOSS camera/security that isn't a cobbled together mess.

I'm inspired to setup a bunch of security cameras now that I got an
ESP32-CAM module working.

I've seen ZoneMinder and C-MOR, but am wondering if anyone on the list
has a recommendation.   I'm not really looking for a "commercial grade"
monitor, just something that I can mess around with and stick a bunch of
cheap cameras looking out the window to protect my house.

Anybody got a recommendation?

TIA!
