The best way to check it is to look at what video streams ZM can accept (www.zoneminder.com, "read the docs" section) and then reference the specs on your camera to see 1) if the camera supplies that kind of stream and 2) what the path URL for that stream is. That path URL is what you'd put into ZM when you configure the camera.
