What are the free desktop clients for video surveillance from multiple ip h264 cameras under Linux-Ubuntu?

Question

linux

Greetings!
In general - a subject. A fairly simple one - a 2x2 grid to display 4 cameras and that's it.
I know about Xeoma - paid. I know about ZoneMinder - to save video in jpg pictures - tin, not suitable.

Answer 1

Not an answer to the question, but as a way out of the situation I would like to write:
You can glue streams from 4 cameras into a grid using ffmpeg and watch this glued stream with any streaming video player.

Answer 2

I recommend:
zoneminder - web interface, there is a client for monitoring with Windows
ffmpeg
motion (there are paid and free derivatives from it)

Answer 3

www.avreg.net
It's easy to install even on servers without X's. The interface is then accessible via a web browser. 2 cameras work great, haven't tried again.

Answer 4

Damn, a lot of people who want =)) Well, I already made a relay server TYNTS , it's time to write a client.
If you make a technical specification, I will write it and send it to the open source =) because. I don't know what most people need. One BUT: I will not parse h264 on my own. already parsed, but the result is just slower than that of ffmpeg, so I will use its lib.
