Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Zoneminder is best for a low-power system. In the last year or so, it got proper passthrough support so it can record video straight off the camera with zero processing. You don't get alarms or motion detection or live view, but you can record 24x7 using 2% of your CPU.
If you get a camera with built in detection like a Reolink I think you can trigger off the camera alarm. It is not easy though, takes some scripting. It is not great but better than nothing.
I set up a low res feed on Modect and use that to trigger recording the event on the second high res camera channel on Nodect, that keeps the CPU usage reasonable.
