I have a couple of Wifi IP cameras that I'd like to record output from. I can either capture an image or (I think) an RTSP stream.
I just want to store them somewhere I can refer back to them in future if needed. Ideally making efficient use of storage.
Any suggestions?
At the moment I have ZoneMinder installed but it's quite big and heavy, I frequently find it isn't running (eg after a system update) and it stores all the images as JPEGs rather than as a movie, where I would have thought that the latter would be rather more efficient.
It crossed my mind I could probably script something that captured images at a regular frame rate and then turned batches of them into videos later, but there's probably a way to avoid reinventing the wheel.
Note: The camera is constantly seeing motion (it's view is through a tree apart from anything else) so motion detection isn't much use unless it can be quite intelligent.
