 **Live view** is Frigate's real-time dashboard and the page you land on by default. It shows all of your cameras at a glance, streams your most recent alerts across the top, and lets you open any camera in a full-resolution single-camera view with audio, two-way talk, PTZ, and on-demand recording controls.

-This page describes how to _use_ the Live view. For how to _configure_ live streaming — go2rtc, stream selection, smart streaming, WebRTC, and audio — see the [Live View configuration](/configuration/live) docs.

 ## The dashboard at a glance

-The default **All Cameras** dashboard shows every camera, with a filmstrip of recent **alerts** scrolling across the top. Clicking an alert opens it in [Review](/usage/review); each card also has a check button to mark it reviewed without leaving the dashboard. Only **alerts** appear in the filmstrip — to suppress a label or zone from showing there, configure it as a detection instead (see [Alerts and Detections](/configuration/review#alerts-and-detections)).

To suppress a label or zone from showing there, configure it as a detection instead (see [Alerts and Detections](/configuration/review#alerts-and-detections)).

 By default Frigate uses **smart streaming**: a camera's image updates roughly once per minute while nothing is happening, and switches to a full live stream the moment activity is detected. This conserves bandwidth and resources. You can change this for each camera when using a camera group (see [Streaming settings](#streaming-settings-and-the-right-click-menu) below), and the behavior is explained in detail under [Live view technologies](/configuration/live#live-view-technologies).

 On desktop and tablet, each camera group has its own freely-arrangeable grid. Enter **Edit Layout** mode from the layout button in the lower-right corner: camera tiles gain a drag handle and corner resize handles. Drag a tile to reposition it and drag a corner to resize it (the aspect ratio is preserved). Exit edit mode to save. The layout is stored in your browser per device, so each device can have its own arrangement.

-The default **All Cameras** dashboard is not manually arrangeable — it automatically sizes tiles based on each camera's aspect ratio (wide cameras span two columns, tall cameras span two rows).
