Tips

Ffprobe camera streams to check if camera is available (example for Dahua IPC rtsp address):

USERNAME=admin
PASSWORD=*****
ffprobe -v quiet -print_format json -show_format "rtsp://${USERNAME}:${PASSWORD}@192.168.1.201:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0&unicast=true&proto=Onvif"
ffprobe -v quiet -print_format json -show_streams "rtsp://${USERNAME}:${PASSWORD}@192.168.1.201:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0&unicast=true&proto=Onvif"

Motion + MotionEye

Option 1: Get MotionEyeOS image

Option 2: Set up motion and motionEye manually

sudo apt install -y ssh curl motion ffmpeg v4l-utils

cd /tmp
sudo apt install -y python2
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/pip/2.7/get-pip.py --output get-pip.py
sudo python2 get-pip.py

sudo apt install -y libffi-dev libzbar-dev libzbar0
sudo apt install -y python2-dev libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libjpeg-dev
sudo apt install -y python-pil

sudo pip2 install motioneye
sudo mkdir -p /etc/motioneye
sudo cp /usr/local/share/motioneye/extra/motioneye.conf.sample /etc/motioneye/motioneye.conf

sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/motioneye

sudo cp /usr/local/share/motioneye/extra/motioneye.systemd-unit-local /etc/systemd/system/motioneye.service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable motioneye
sudo systemctl start motioneye

Browse to http://hostname_or_ip:8765/ (Username admin with blank password)

Add camera streams, for example rtsp://192.168.1.200:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0&unicast=true&proto=Onvif (for Dahua)

ZoneMinder

Option 1: Get Raspbian Lite image

Tip: Increase GPU mem to improve performance

Option 2: Install on Ubuntu aarch64

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:iconnor/zoneminder-1.34
