Hah, I got the same one as you. Got both a 2U and 4U.

I been using zoneminder for over a decade now and inertia is such a thing.

I wouldn’t recommend it to my friends, maybe techie friends, but it is so hard to configure.

I am about upgrade to a new ZM based on Rocky 9.

I do run 40 monitors, I use substreams and link to the main stream. Home assistant had sensors that can trigger alerts, wrote my own front end to quickly move from scene to scene and to accommodate more than 6 monitors.

I still have yet to master capturing video outdoors. It misses some stuff, but I have a backup video on other systems.

Also would like to look at some of the ML stuff.

I am going to reduce the amount of cameras though. After 10 years it is time to get rid of the BNC cameras.
