Sure, if you don't capture at full frame rate deinterlacing isn't particularly useful. My cameras capture at 10fps until motion is detected, then full frame rate. Given that not all cameras trigger together you can probably get quite a few cameras on any modern box before there's any trouble ...

Deinterlacing is on playback of course, not capture. So for 8 cameras you need to do: 1) Capture image from camera 2) That's it This happens already, so I don't think there'll be any problem here. The only capture modification I'd make would be to capture odd/even fields as separate jpegs to prevent ...

Ideally ZM would include deinterlacing filters which would help a lot. Unfortunately this is probably quite a bit of work. I've thought about it a couple of times but not looked into it yet.

Couple of points though: - there shouldn't be a dependency on mysql-server since that can be located on a remote machine, you will need to install that yourself ...

Really you want to make use of yum/smart/apt to solve dependencies or you might go on all day looking for them. Google for instructions on how to do this, there's plenty out there.
