Performance

  • Raspberry Pi Zero W is able to process CSI camera (Rpi Cam v2) and USB 2k camera but it has load average about 1.4, and CPU is quite well utilized, so you may need to decrease resolution per camera to see how it goes.

  • for webcams it is always better to choose snapshot because it requires less computing both on camera and on the host, otherwise we need to use ffmpeg

  • ffmpeg is usually noticeably slow and cpu intensive, especially if you do more complex operations
