Shinobi is an Open Source CCTV software written in Node.JS. Designed with multiple account system, Streams by WebSocket, and Save to WebM. Currently it is being crafted for IP Cameras, not local. Shinobi can record IP Cameras and Local Cameras.

Key Aspects

• Written in a simple structure. camera.js and web folder.
• Streams are transferred through WebSocket. DOM element is an img tag.
• Any websocket enabled browser can support the image stream (including mobile)
• Can save to WebM or MP4 (Your version of FFMPEG must have libvpx and libx264)
• No Mootools (yes, you can shake my hand later)
• Calendar view for Events

How to Install and Run

• https://github.com/moeiscool/Shinobi/blob/master/INSTALL.md

To Do

• Fix Pipe error that occasionally occurs. (appears to be caused by JPEG stream emit or pipe into ffmpeg, MJPEG is not affected) - this will be addressed by segmenting feature.
• Save events with blank frames and force real duration instead of based on frame count.
• better mobile support.
