There’s an add-on and an integration, yeah.

Oh interesting. How fast things change. I’ve only been using Frigate for around a year and I’m already behind the times.

The Home Assistant mobile client? Or is there a Frigate app, too? I have the Frigate webpage bookmarked and used that. It’s also available in the HA front end, but I prefer using Frigate directly.

Frigate for software. Add a Coral to your computer (they come in M.2, Mini PCIe, even USB) to handle the object detection. Configuration is slightly complex, but the documentation is very good.

I’m using a couple of Amcrest cameras which I have on a VLAN that can’t access the internet, so no spying from the manufacturer.

I also added a hard drive specifically for the recording. It stores a ton of days worth of footage and Frigate handles deleting old footage to make room for new. I figure that hard drive will probably fail sooner than my other drives which is why I got one just for that.
