FFMPEG source

Post by zmf »

Hi,

I was playing around with my ZoneMinder. I have a number of cameras connected over RTSP, which FFMPEG selected as the source. I understand this is the recommended settings and assume it's using ffmpeg to connect to the actual cameras? I say assume, because I also note that FFMPEG is not installed on the ZoneMinder box. Just curious as to what I'm missing?

We use the ffmpeg libraries. So the installed package would be libavcodec etc.

Thanks for the reply. I've just checked the box and libavcodec is indeed installed.
