Frigate ships with a set of FFmpeg presets to keep your configuration short and readable. Each preset expands to a longer list of FFmpeg arguments at runtime. You can see exactly what every preset expands to in [this file](https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate/blob/master/frigate/ffmpeg_presets.py).
In the config file you reference a preset by its name (for example, `preset-vaapi`). In the UI, the same preset is shown with a friendly label (for example, **VAAPI (Intel/AMD GPU)**). Both refer to the same thing — the tables below list the config name alongside the label you'll see in the UI.

### Hwaccel (Hardware Acceleration) Presets {#hwaccel-presets}
Hardware acceleration arguments tell FFmpeg to decode your camera's video stream on a GPU or integrated graphics chip instead of the CPU, which dramatically lowers CPU usage. Using a preset is highly recommended. Beyond replacing a long list of arguments, each preset also tells Frigate what hardware is available so it can offload additional work to the GPU — for example, encoding the Birdseye restream or scaling a stream whose resolution differs from the camera's native size.

See [the hardware acceleration docs](/configuration/hardware_acceleration_video.md) for details on setting up hardware acceleration for your GPU / iGPU, then select the preset that matches your hardware.

### Input Args Presets
Input arguments are passed to FFmpeg before your camera source and control how Frigate connects to and reads the stream — the transport protocol, timeouts, reconnection behavior, and how the stream is probed. The right input args ensure a reliable connection and maximum compatibility for each type of stream.

### Output Args Presets
Output arguments are passed to FFmpeg after your camera source and control how recordings are written — which codecs are used and whether audio and video are copied as-is or re-encoded. The right output args ensure consistent, playable recordings for each type of stream.
