November 2, 20187 yr Hello all, So I'm setting up some security cameras to run off my unraid box. I've installed the Zoneminder docker and have it up and running. Got a few questions that I'm hoping are either easy to answer or if folks can point out some good resources to read up on. Thanks ahead of time. When I begin recording evens is it best to get a surveillance HD from WD, map to it own share and use that for recordings. If so should I bypass cache or maybe even use a dedicated cache for surveillance? As this is running on unraid I can access the webui any where on my lan, but I'm hoping to set up maybe an old tablet as a monitor in the kitchen (and/or bedroom) and have a constant feed of the monitors available. Is there a method that doesn't require being logged into Zoneminder, maybe a remote client or something that can utilized to minimize the UI and just provide the necessary function one would want on a simple monitor. The default ZoneMinder skins are well very defaulty....is there a repository or resource available for skins that look...well...cool? Anyone running these have suggestion on good resolutions and bitrates that provide clear pictures but don't suck up HD space for recorded events Any other useful resources, hacks, or suggestions on how to best set up, utilize and/or have fun with home surveillance? I treat my unraid work as a hobby. I want the added security of course but I also enjoy playing around with features, hacks and other tweaks so I'll take any and all info. Really appreciate it. Thanks!
November 15, 20187 yr I would love to find out this information as well! Thinking about using Zoneminder or something else similiar. To add a question, is there a way to have a limited sized share that will overwrite its data once its full? Or is that part of Zoneminder?
