automated modect and montor switching?

Post by DiscusZ »

Is there a way to switch to monitor mode only at certain times? IE I only want to modect from about 9pm intil about 6am (this camera is loated where I park my car) I want to do this because normal times for breakins occur later in the evening and early morning hours.

if there is a way or someone has done this let me know. Would it be as siple as having a perl script run as cron and change the sql db for the camera I want to switch back and forth and if so would th zm process know this was changed?

Thanks
