Well I just got zoneminder up today, and after seeing these two threads:

I was able to easily setup a live video stream to my xbmc install which is hooked up to my 57" HDTV. I must say the quality is pretty good.
What I did was install URLPaster from http://www.xbmcscripts.com/
http://www.xbmcscripts.com/modules/mod_ ... itstart=30
The instructions for the urlpaster program are straight forward. I loaded xbmc, installed the urlpaster python scripts and launched the main URLPaster.py.
Then with the pc app I pasted the mplayer url
http://192.168.0.5/cgi-bin/nph-zms?mode ... format=asf
You can change your ip/monitor.
This basically verifies that it is easy to stream the feed to xbmc. I'll try working on a python script that has config settings to load this automatically without the url paster.
