It supports ZoneMinder, but only if you set up the exact correct Device Format (NTSC M) and Capture Palette (YUV420).<br \/>\nIt has good low-light performance, although it will not work in complete darkness without additional IR illumination.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.summet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/settings-source.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.summet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/settings-source.png\" alt=\"Source Settings in ZoneMinder\" title=\"settings-source\" width=\"386\" height=\"448\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.summet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/settings-source.png 386w, https:\/\/www.summet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/settings-source-258x300.png 258w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 386px) 100vw, 386px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Philips 900NC webcam is Linux compatible (Tested with: Ubuntu 8.10, 9.04 &#038; 10.04).
