Local realtime person detection for RTSP cameras

Thanks for reply. There was’t issue with disk space, the Frigate folder is mount to 500GB disk and there is plenty of free space.
All Frigate logs which I saw in the add-on were related to ffmpeg which had log level to default info. I just changed that to critical so I should see more Frigate related logs now. I’ll be monitoring it and I’ll provide update in few days when that happens again.

I mean Frigate at side panel of HA…

How this get working? And also with Android HA app?

Now it’s done like this:

panel_iframe:
  frigate:
    title: "frigate"
    icon: mdi:cctv
    url: "http://192.168.1.60:5000"

If you use remote connection with ssl not on local lan, you cant use iframe with frigate

Hi folks,
I have got two noob questions… is there a way to safetly delete the video clips and image files,
and also is there an input argument we can tell Frigate NVR to only capture events every x minutes? This is to avoid having multiple events being created within a relatively short period of time, eg. a family member washing their car in the driveway would generate a dozen of events and video clips.

Thanks heaps.

Hmm… I am using Nabu Casa Home Assistant Cloud connection. Can I or not?

As the HTTPS->HTTP iframe is not working we need to make a server nginx witch we translate http->https
On PC you will see the iframe Frigate, but on mobile no.
You can try and see. I have been there i tryed.
So i gave up. And using regular ADDON to have remote mount share for media folder

If you are accessing Home Assistant over HTTPS using SSL, you cannot access HTTP sites through an iframe panel.

i assume you are using ssl so likely it not work for you

i think it might be possible if you use nginx in between. But didn’t tested it.

Is it possible to run 0.9 beta as a addon in ha?
My 0.8.x is crashing several times a day…

Long topic :wink:

Anybody have nice automation or node red automation for send clip & snapshot from camera if for example nobody is at home?

Hello
Can you share how the docker run command looks for docker for windows setup?
Must i register my version for more features?

This is what i try but no luck, cannot find EDGETPU (usb or my PCIe)

docker run --rm -it --privileged --name frigate --mount type=tmpfs,target=/tmp/cache,tmpfs-size=1000000000 --device /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb -v F:/frigate/media:/media/frigate -v F:/frigate/config:/config -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -e FRIGATE_RTSP_PASSWORD='password' -p 5000:5000 -p 1935:1935 blakeblackshear/frigate:stable-amd64  

@mcpaha Yeah there’s a nice blueprint for sending a notification

You need https for remote, http work only local. I have it done with nginx, also added username and password for security

I am running virtualbox, ha and a coral usb. Running 4 camera streams and my coral does work with 80ms. Can i reduce that somehow?

UPDATE!
Ended up with installing unraid on my server and now i even get the PCIe M2 device to work with Frigate instead of running it all in Virtualbox.

I think I might just have to cron a regular restart of the container for Frigate because after a day or two it loses it’s mind and can no longer record clips. It works for a day or two, then nothing. Looking at the log entries I see a whole bunch of this:

I check the container’s disk space and memory and it’s WIDE open:

I did notice that inside the container there are a TON of files in /dev/shm before I restart it.

I had this before and with me it was a memory and chache memory issue.

How did you solve it? I’ve allowed 2G of shared memory /dev/shm and 2G of /temp/cache and Frigate is not using much of either.

Also, why would it work to begin with and over time stop working? Seems to be more like a bug…

It is somewhere in this 5085 monstertopic… I do not exactly remember and cannot search it as I do not have access to a pc atm.

How memory is set and free in the docker container? And is this set correct:

I have just setup Frigate via Docker and i am doing some testing before purchasing any more kit so i am using the CPU detector for now.

I have YiHome camera with Yi-Hack v4 and RTSP stream into Frigate and this appears to work fine at 5fps and i have some issues/questions:

  1. The system shows it has detected a person when i view a camera via the web UI however the event page doesnt show any events, it is empty.

  2. I am using the ffmpg integration to currently bring the RTSP stream into Home Assistant, this is then also available to HomeKit. I tried to bring in the RTMP Stream from Frigate but it fails to load, which integration should i be using to see Real Time view at full FPS?

- platform: ffmpeg
  name: Camera
  input: -rtsp_transport tcp -i rtsp://CAMIP/ch0_0.h264
- platform: ffmpeg
  name: Camera_Frigate
  input: rtmp://ServerIP_of_Docker_Host:5000/live/CameraName
  1. My YiHome cameras have a high res and low res stream available. Can i use the low res for object detection and the high res for live view? If so how and where do i configure this - or would i simply continue to view the high res stream via my existing ffmpg integration?
