Run something like xawtv or tvtime or cheese and see what the video 
output is like.

"1.3 Mega Pixels resolution (interpolated)" means that its software 
upscaling to 1280x1024 for stills, which generally means a 640x480 sensor.

BTW I'd put my vote in for motion instead of zoneminder, but that's a 
personal preference.   Since both apps open a Video 4 linux device, 
they'd all suffer the same resolution size problem.
