I only have experience with my simple Foscam (generic) cameras. They have fast streaming video, but the ZoneMinder hits the camera at an interval defined in its configuration. You can set it to do many FPS, or just a few-- depending on what you think you need. SO even if your camera does a hundred FPS, ZoneMinder has the ability to deal with it-- if you adjust the configurable ZoneMinder FPS accordingly. ______________________________________________________________________ If life gives you lemons, keep them-- because hey.. free lemons.
