My config is working fine, I have been trying for hours to find out how to turn off recording from an automation. I have tried every entities, nothing does the job.
From Frigate I can click on the top right buttons and turn on or off recordings, snapshots etc.

This changes are not reflected in the Configuration sections of the device
I can click each switch, they go back on after a second, and no feedback in the Frigate logs.
