Capture and write on disk 1 frame per second -- possible ?

Post by marcio123 »

Is it possible to set ZM to capture and write 1 frame per second (jpg) from all my cameras on my harddisk ?

How can I do it ?

I have max 6 FPS on every camera. That number makes it go without delay. If I set 1 FPS there is about 6-7 seconds delay (for screen to react)

Setting 1 FPS doesn't make it write 1 frame/s (JPG) on hard disk.

If you are using IP cameras set the 1fps on the camera.

On some IP cameras you may need to put the fps in the Remote Host Path eg for Axis:

&fps=1
