Local realtime person detection for RTSP cameras

it seems like frigate does not like my NFS mount.

just tried it without the directory mounted over NFS, running on the SDCARD, and frigate is working now.

is there a list of MQTT topics that frigate uses?

I found references in this thread to topics that donā€™t seem to work for me. So far only frigate/events work.

One example is the frigate/camera_name/object_name. I see no activity when I listen to this topic.

Just got one of these - Jetson Nano NX (it has, it looks like next to the M2 SSD slot, a E key M2 slot for the wireless adapter). So could drop a Coral TPU in there :smiley:

Then looking for the GPU side for transcoding

anyone got it working?

in the frigate docs:

An aarch64 for the Jetson, which also includes NVDEC may be added in the future.

furthermore, looks like there is no official support jetson accelerated ffmpeg, only this repo:

and it looks like you need an nvidia something for docker:
https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/container-toolkit/install-guide.html#docker

thanks for the reply - seems like uncharted territory ---- yey?! lol

So far got hassio running in docker very nicely, and frigate addon
Probably going to use this for a friends home setup (iā€™m on unraid with a GPU and Coral TPU) but this works pretty well so far.

That looks like exactly what I need. Thanks!

So Iā€™m running an embedded video card (Intel HD 530) with an i7-6700 (Skylake). I think there is an issue with ffmpeg as per this link (https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/7933#comment:3). I tried several things to fix the hardware acceleration but whenever I add the following code all my cameras go green:

ffmpeg:
  hwaccel_args:
    - -hwaccel
    - vaapi
    - -hwaccel_device
    - /dev/dri/renderD128
    - -hwaccel_output_format
    - yuv420p

The MQTT topics are in the docs:

No one? Really?

More specific: what doe I need to do to run frigate not as an addon in homeassistant but on a separate machine (vm/container)? What should I do?

I want to install using docker (is there any other option?) I have a fresh install of ubuntu server 20 and docker.

Yes, you need to use Docker. The commands to run a container are on the installation page you linked

  • How to determine this: image: blakeblackshear/frigate:<specify_version_tag> ? And what happens if a new version comes out?

This might be a good time to familiarize yourself with Docker. In general, you can use the latest tag, eg image: blakeblackshear/frigate:latest. When a new version comes out, youā€™ll need to stop your container, pull the new image, then start your container

  • b. Where should I put/edit/do the config file? How to get there?

This is configured using docker volumes. An example with it is in the docker-compose and commandline examples. You can put the file anywhere you want locally. It just needs to be mounted into the container using the volumes/-v options.

Do I really need this if I donā€™t want to ā€œpass the stream furtherā€?

Thatā€™s for environment variables. If you donā€™t know that you need it, donā€™t include it.

any other thoughts?

Take some time to learn docker. Itā€™s really powerful and if youā€™re going to be using it, itā€™s really helpful to know what youā€™re doing and not rely on strangers on the internet to write commands for you.

Anyone know where Coral is available in the US?

Is there a way to code a for loop to run through all the {{trigger.payload_json[ā€œafterā€][ā€œidā€]}}/thumbnail.jpg?format=android and then output them inside something like a swiper card? Iā€™m guessing some sort of a templateā€¦

They are in production / potentially available this month. On Amazon, you can sign up to be notified when it is available.

Has anyone got the Frigate integration working with the frigate container running in kubernetes behind an nginx ingress? I have it set up so itā€™s over ssl and hits via 443. Pulls up fine from my browser, but fails from trying to configure the integration (I did the address as https://dnsname and https://dnsname:443).

Mouser is saying stock expected around March 11 when I checked last night.

EDIT: Looking today, bumped out to the 15th now :frowning:

Ick. Are their alternatives that work with Frigate? Like intelā€™s?

Does anyone know the web ui url for Frigate. I see it referenced here but donā€™t see how to access it?

The local ip of where your frigate is located with :5000 for port.

Ex. 192.168.1.3:5000

When I go to that url all i get is this.
