can you please help me nail out a few issues I am having with frigate.
- Snapshot quality is terrible. Is there a way to increase the snapshot image quality?
- On PC, everything works perfectly. However, on mobile the camera flashes the live image for a second, then disappears and does not show again. This does not happen on PC. On PC the stream is solid and also solid stream within the frigate UI directly.
- Is there a way to enable “Full Screen” option on mobile?
- is there a way to overwrite recordings when storage is full?
Any ideas?
Thanks

motion:
# Optional: The threshold passed to cv2.threshold to determine if a pixel is different enough to be counted as motion. (default: shown below)
# Increasing this value will make motion detection less sensitive and decreasing it will make motion detection more sensitive.
# The value should be between 1 and 255.
threshold: 25
# Optional: Minimum size in pixels in the resized motion image that counts as motion (default: 30)
# Increasing this value will prevent smaller areas of motion from being detected. Decreasing will
# make motion detection more sensitive to smaller moving objects.
# As a rule of thumb:
# - 15 - high sensitivity
# - 30 - medium sensitivity
# - 50 - low sensitivity
contour_area: 30
# Optional: Alpha value passed to cv2.accumulateWeighted when averaging the motion delta across multiple frames (default: shown below)
# Higher values mean the current frame impacts the delta a lot, and a single raindrop may register as motion.

delta_alpha: 0.2
# Optional: Alpha value passed to cv2.accumulateWeighted when averaging frames to determine the background (default: shown below)
# Higher values mean the current frame impacts the average a lot, and a new object will be averaged into the background faster.
# Low values will cause things like moving shadows to be detected as motion for longer.

frame_alpha: 0.2
# Optional: Height of the resized motion frame (default: 50)
# This operates as an efficient blur alternative. Higher values will result in more granular motion detection at the expense
# of higher CPU usage. Lower values result in less CPU, but small changes may not register as motion.
