Enabling PCA CCTV links using JPEG and MJPEG using Shinobi

[Pete]

This will be a generic post relating to use of CCTV links and configuration in PCA.

Currently utilize Zoneminder for CCTV.

Testing a new mini CCTV program that runs in Ubuntu called Shinobi.

Here continue to utilize Snaplink and IP Omnitouch screens.

Tested Shinobi and CCTV links in PCA and a USB webcam. Works great here.

You are limited with PCA to streaming only 640X480 and using JPEG or MJPEG.

Testing Hardware:

1 - Logitech USB webcam
2 - Linux computer - RPi will work fine
3 - Omni Pro 2 panel

Testing Software:

1 - PCA to configure JPG link (MJPEG and JPG works with Omnitouch screens and JPG only with Snaplink)
2 - Shinobi CCTV software
3 - any Linux OS (Stretch or Ubuntu)
4 - Windows 10

Here installed Snaplink on Windows 10 PC and Mobile.
