Frigate the NVR? What're your thoughts on it? Been looking at NVRs for a while and hadn't seen that one

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I don't have anything to compare it to, but I wanted local object detection and it's kind of the only option. Configuration had a learning curve. There's somewhat limited playback options, but they cover the basics. It doesn't transcode playback so on mobile, the 4k playback buffers. I could make a smaller stream to record but I wish it was dynamic on playback. The object detection works well enough, but there are a lot of false positives. They're using the default models for now, but are working on frigate.plus models. The pricing structure for that is wack though. I bitch about photoprism's subscription features, and frigate plus also wants $5/month for the rest of your life or the model stops working. I'd be happy to pay a one-time fee to unlock but I refuse to pay subscription for a product that is self-hosted.
