Reolink Lumus + Neolink works
Posted: Thu Dec 03, 2020 3:32 pm
I haven't seen any mention of the Reolink Lumus camera working with ZoneMinder, so I thought I'd post this.
I was able to use neolink (https://github.com/thirtythreeforty/neolink) to attach to the camera, then pointed ZoneMinder at the local neolink instance, and it works like a champ.
I'm also using it with my Reolink RLC-411 to set up 2 monitors for one camera (one modect, one record). I would see smearing if ZoneMinder was pulling 2 streams directly from the same camera, but using neolink fixed that problem.
Neolink is supposed to support some other Reolink cameras as well (B800/D800/B400/D400/E1), but I haven't tried those.
Here is the camera section I use of the neolink config file:
And for ZoneMinder I use a SourceType of ffmpeg, and a path of rtsp://localhost:8554/frontdoor.
