What is possible with this? (links included) Intel J6412

[atlas]

I'm still looking to buy a box that can handle 10 cameras at say 3MP with zones using modetect. Will this low power machine cut it?

QOTOM Fanless Mini PC Q790X 10th Processor J6412 Quad Core 10W Low Power 6 COM 5G 8 USB2.0 3.0

Here it is listed on fleaby, https://www.ebay.com/itm/265995640795

Here is the cpu specs - https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en ... 0-ghz.html

Its 4 cores / 4 threads at 2Ghz

If not are there any listed here that could? https://qotomminipc.aliexpress.com/store/108231
All I see is 2 cores mostly.

I just want to buy something that is not a energy hog and not sluggish. I did search around on the forums but I just don't see much on the 10 camera system setups. Most of the threads are old. I wouldn't mind a 1U box either.

Well, I went ahead and ordered a 'Mini PC Fanless,Intel Core i7 10510U'
Bought it with 32GB ram and 1TB ssd, I might open it when I get it and put a couple m.2 drives in it.

I did not buy from amazon but its the easiest link to paste in: https://www.amazon.com/Fanless-Windows- ... 9MWD9?th=1

The CPU:

The specs say the base freq is 1.8Ghz, its 4 cores, 8 threads.

For the love of all that is holy would a rockstar on here let me know how disappointed I will be? lol

Can I do 10 cameras if I play it smart with the settings? low stream (monitor)/ high stream record at 3MP

I have a POE switch and a ubiquity AP pico M2 and I plan to get a directional yogi antenna for a couple offsite wireless cameras. The rest will be just ethernet IP cams. (have not purchased yet)

Might take a bit of tweaking but that should do the job just fine.

UPDATE!
I ended up with a fanless system as described above, bought a off the shelf wifi/poe ptz dome camera without doing any research.

The box->
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10610U CPU @ 1.80GHz, 8 cores with 32GB ram
I installed Ubuntu latest headless server, then install zoneminder using apt
I measured the load using htop -->avg
1 Camera at 1920x1080p using the wifi connection.

The single Camera off (modect off) system idle---> ~.3% cpu avg
The single Camera with modect on ----> ~3.3%-4.1% cpu avg
The single camera 'triggered' (recording) ----> ~6%-8% cpu avg
The camera is running at 10fps and the storage is passthrough (no re-encoding/decoding going on I think), so recording 1080 @ 10fps.

Hopes this may be of use to somebody else.

The Camera is a imou cruiser SE, and it does not have a web gui. Knowing what I learned now, I would use a tool from their parent company to config the camera without putting the obnoxious app that wants all permissions on your phone. Use the program I mentioned below to assign it a static IP address. The parent company of this brand is Dahua Technology, and they have a tool also you can download to config the camera without scanning QR codes. ughhhhhhhh

The camera address looks like this--> rtsp://admin:saftey_password_on_sticker@192.168.XX.XXX:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0&unicast=true&proto=Onvif (you can leave off &unicast=true&proto=Onvif and it will still work)

The ptz does not work in zm, but it does work with this other ONVIF program called 'ONVIF Device Manager' it gives a error sometimes to this address --> http://192.168.XX.XXX/onvif/ptz_service
Maybe some genius on here can get it working?

subtype=0 is the full res and subtype=1 is 480x??? if you switch it up in the address.

Overall I like zoneminder, seems solid so far
