Zoneminder is a pretty solid setup for IP security cameras, and the zmninja app is really nice too. I had tried it years ago but got back to it recently with some sketchy IP cameras. I just put them in their own VLAN, no Internet access, Zoneminder does motion detection and event recording, and so far I’m quite pleased with it.
I’m a big fan of scrypted. I moved to that from Frigate. Not regrets, easier to setup and use.
While frigate is every bit as capable, I got tired of tinkering with it or it breaking with my install when I updated it.
No issues this far with scrypted.

As of right now, no. It’s relatively new as I understand. The feature to record only events is a planned addition. As of right now it records 24/7 and records events. I have 7 cameras currently set up, a 7 day set of recordings takes about 1.5TB. This includes many 1080P and 2K resolution cameras.
Again no I’ll intent towards frigate, I needed something more plug and play and LOVE the plug-in functionality of it as well. I’m also already using it for HomeKit integration so it was an easy transition to making it my frigate replacement.
