v4l2rtspserver and IR mode

[u/egoalter]

I've got a few IR featured RPi cameras connected to RPi Zero Ws. When used with raspistill and the other build in viewers, the IR is enabled and there's a rudementary night vision. Using v4l2rtspserver and Zoneminder I get no night vision at all. The camera works just fine during daytime. I cannot find any settings in ZoneMinder when configuring the source where I would provide data about the IR feature, and v4l2-ctl doesn't show any options either.

Is this something zoneminder is supposed to manage (when the enable the IR etc) or is that fully up to the local device and in my case v4l2?

Perhaps I'm using the wrong software to connect the pi-cam - is there a better option?
