This is a work-in-progress of a new skin for ZoneMinder version >= 1.24 . I plan on removing many of the extra (read: usually unused) features of the WebUI and to go with a more simplistic approach, while adding web 2.0 features. To use this skin, check it out into a new zm/skins directory (I.e. zm/skins/new), then browse to http://yourzm/?skin=new

FEATURES

• This skin has only been tested in Firefox 3.5.8 for Linux X86_64
• I do not plan on supporting any non-standards-compliant browsers (read: IE)
• Filtering is currently only availble by Monitor Name and Date Range
• Monitors on Console view will ajax refresh at your WEB_REFRESH_IMAGE variable if in Low or Medium bandwidth.
• Monitors will stream live if in High bandwidth.
• Clicking on a monitor will "drill into" the associated events for that monitor
• Filter by additional monitors by checking the corresponding check box.
• Checking a monitor checkbox will automatically execute the filter (ajax)
• Clicking on "Specific Date Range" on the Events page will allow you to search by a Date Range.
• To search by a Date Range, enter both dates (only tested with MM/DD/YYYY) then click "Submit"

BUGS

• ZM authentication options do not work. I'm currently using Apache's .htaccess and .htpasswd (mod_basic I suppose)

FUTURE

• Add "netflix-like" bandwidth test to dynamically determine appropriate image streaming settings.
• Convert to HTML5.
• Video playback via HTML5?
• Add "Take Snapshot" button to event playback
• Implement widgets
