# Birdseye
Birdseye allows a heads-up view of your cameras to see what is going on around your property / space without having to watch all cameras that may have nothing happening. Birdseye allows specific modes that intelligently show and disappear based on what you care about.

```yaml
birdseye:
enabled: True

## Birdseye Layout
### Birdseye Dimensions
The resolution and aspect ratio of birdseye can be configured. Resolution will increase the quality but does not affect the layout. Changing the aspect ratio of birdseye does affect how cameras are laid out.
```yaml

*Note*: Cameras are sorted by default using their name to ensure a constant view inside Birdseye.
### Birdseye Cameras
It is possible to limit the number of cameras shown on birdseye at one time. When this is enabled, birdseye will show the cameras with most recent activity. There is a cooldown to ensure that cameras do not switch too frequently.
For example, this can be configured to only show the most recently active camera.
```yaml
birdseye:
enabled: True
layout:
max_cameras: 1
```
### Birdseye Scaling
By default birdseye tries to fit 2 cameras in each row and then double in size until a suitable layout is found. The scaling can be configured with a value between 1.0 and 5.0 depending on use case.

enabled: True

## VSCode Configuration Schema
VSCode (and VSCode addon) supports the JSON schemas which will automatically validate the config. This can be added by adding `# yaml-language-server: $schema=http://frigate_host:5000/api/config/schema.json` to the top of the config file. `frigate_host` being the IP address of Frigate or `ccab4aaf-frigate` if running in the addon.
VSCode supports JSON schemas for automatically validating configuration files. You can enable this feature by adding `# yaml-language-server: $schema=http://frigate_host:5000/api/config/schema.json` to the beginning of the configuration file. Replace `frigate_host` with the IP address or hostname of your Frigate server. If you're using both VSCode and Frigate as an add-on, you should use `ccab4aaf-frigate` instead. Make sure to expose port `5000` for the Web Interface when accessing the config from VSCode on another machine.

The export page in the Frigate WebUI allows for exporting real time clips with a designated start and stop time as well as exporting a time-lapse for a designated start and stop time. These exports can take a while so it is important to leave the file until it is no longer in progress.
### Time-lapse export
When exporting a time-lapse the default speed-up is 25x with 30 FPS. This means that every 25 seconds of (real-time) recording is condensed into 1 second of time-lapse video (always without audio) with a smoothness of 30 FPS.
To configure the speed-up factor, the frame rate and further custom settings, the configuration parameter `timelapse_args` can be used. The below configuration example would change the time-lapse speed to 60x (for fitting 1 hour of recording into 1 minute of time-lapse) with 25 FPS:
```yaml
record:
enabled: True
export:
timelapse_args: "-vf setpts=PTS/60 -r 25"
```
:::tip
When using `hwaccel_args` globally hardware encoding is used for time lapse generation. The encoder determines its own behavior so the resulting file size may be undesirably large.
To reduce the output file size the ffmpeg parameter `-qp n` can be utilized (where `n` stands for the value of the quantisation parameter). The value can be adjusted to get an acceptable tradeoff between quality and file size for the given scenario.
:::
## Syncing Recordings With Disk
In some cases the recordings files may be deleted but Frigate will not know this has happened. Recordings sync can be enabled which will tell Frigate to check the file system and delete any db entries for files which don't exist.
