nulledy a084b63a96 Allow API Events to be Detections or Alerts, depending on the Event Label (#21923)
* - API created events will be alerts OR detections, depending on the event label, defaulting to alerts
- Indefinite API events will extend the recording segment until those events are ended
- API event start time is the actual start time, instead of having a pre-buffer of record.event_pre_capture

* Instead of checking for indefinite events on a camera before deciding if we should end the segment, only update last_detection_time and last_alert_time if frame_time is greater, which should have the same effect

* Add the ability to set a pre_capture number of seconds when creating a manual event via the API. Default behavior unchanged

* Remove unnecessary _publish_segment_start() call

* Formatting

* handle last_alert_time or last_detection_time being None when checking them against the frame_time

* comment manual_info["label"].split(": ")[0] for clarity

Frigate NVR™ - Realtime Object Detection for IP Cameras

License: MIT

Translation status

[English] | 简体中文

A complete and local NVR designed for Home Assistant with AI object detection. Uses OpenCV and Tensorflow to perform realtime object detection locally for IP cameras.

Use of a GPU or AI accelerator is highly recommended. AI accelerators will outperform even the best CPUs with very little overhead. See Frigate's supported object detectors.

  • Tight integration with Home Assistant via a custom component
  • Designed to minimize resource use and maximize performance by only looking for objects when and where it is necessary
  • Leverages multiprocessing heavily with an emphasis on realtime over processing every frame
  • Uses a very low overhead motion detection to determine where to run object detection
  • Object detection with TensorFlow runs in separate processes for maximum FPS
  • Communicates over MQTT for easy integration into other systems
  • Records video with retention settings based on detected objects
  • 24/7 recording
  • Re-streaming via RTSP to reduce the number of connections to your camera
  • WebRTC & MSE support for low-latency live view
