I have a few dvr's that I am contemplating converting to Zoneminder (don't know any other app) and would prefer to use CentOS over fedora obviously but the only rpm I see exists for Fedora.
I don't want the hassle of manually compiling this, as we have our own config mgmt.
Anyone using this rpm (srpm recompiled) in CentOS or know of a solution that exists?
Thanks! jlc
You can try the below like.

I have zoneminder 1.24.4 running under 5.5. The docs/support sucks. There is one comment you need to add to ./configure to get it to compile. It took me months to figure it out and find it on the zoneminder website.
The best version was 1.23.3 but the current ffmpeg doesn't work with it.
When I find it again, I'll post it. If you think it may be in my configure script somewhere, let me know and I'll post it.

We gave up on zoneminder and moved to motion, easy to build RPM's and configure.

ehh -- The version in RawHide will build and run under C5, with some tedious gathering and packaging of buildchain work
[herrold@centos-5 zoneminder]$ rpm -q zoneminder zoneminder-1.24.2-5orc [herrold@centos-5 zoneminder]$ ls *src.rpm | grep orc | wc 28 28 1021 [herrold@centos-5 zoneminder]$

Russ, Although Motion looks neat, the project looks a bit quite for my taste. KB's repo doesn't have a recent zm srpm would you care to update your ftp site or share in the process you used to get the F14 rpm in CentOS?
Thanks! jlc

sure -- I've been meaning to describe a new approach I have been using to solving such formally, and this is as good a test to solve as any other. Give me a couple days please.
Joseph -- please contact me privately with a preferred email address and contact details, and I'll use you as my 'crash test dummy' / first tester, to do testing of the method's reproducability behind me, if you are willing
thanks

<snip> I know nussing, nussing, of Zoneminder; however, we've been using motion at work since years before I started here. Works fine.

We gave up on zoneminder and moved to motion, easy to build RPM's and configure.
Looks nice, I'll sub to that list but quick last question: After a read of the docs, I get the idea it's not designed to output a continuous mpeg for each camera like a real dvr, is that true?
Thanks! jlc

I admit we do not use it in that manner but it does utilize ffmepg so mpeg out is possible. I certainly have recorded video when events are triggered.
