DVR CCTV Card
teedge77:
I don't know a lot about DVR cards. I would like to do the mythtv thing with Hauppauge or whatever; but what I need to figure out is how to do security cams, other than through IP cams. Is there a DVR CCTV card that is supported in LinuxMCE? Plans to support any?
DeadPenguin:
I am not sure what is supported by linuxmce, but linux supports video input card based on the Conexant BT878 video capture chipset. I believe linuxmce is using Motion for the surv. cams.
I checked Motion wiki but just found a list of working cams. You can check V4L to see if a cam is working in Linux.
I have used my Kodicomm I got off Ebay with Zoneminder (another linux cctv app.) Have my fingers crossed it will work with LinuxMCE. (it should.)
Regards,
Blair
teedge77:
Thanks. I will look into some boards with that chipset and maybe try one out.
Zaerc:
I have set up my crappy old usb webcam under LMCE (with motion)... and documented it right here. Might be of some use.

DeadPenguin, Did you get your Kodicomm card + Zoneminder to work with LinuxMCE? I would be very interested to see if that did work/how you did it. Thanks!
