Does anyone have any luck with getting a Divis dvr card working? The serial number on mine is MPG8CH 0423 - 274. I can't find much on the internet about Divis cards.

This is a hardware compression card. There are two big reasons why this wouldn't work:

a) There won't be a Video4Linux driver
b) Even if there were a driver, Zoneminder would not make use of the hardware compression and you wouldn't get any benefit from it
