Hello. We are using Kmotion, which as far as I have seen in our setup stores static images (JPEG) every couple of seconds. I don't know many details about it though, as our Physical Infrastructure team set it up and manages it, but they are happy with it. I think saving images as opposed to video was decided based on the cost of the storage (over 60 cameras, too much data). -- Marios Zindilis _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
