* bound recording snapshot lookups by segment length
Ordering the recording snapshot and Frigate+ lookups by stream_type ahead of start_time broke index order, so SQLite fetched and sorted every older recording for the camera on each request (about 100 ms on a 30 day camera, run on the event loop). A start_time lower bound of the frame time minus MAX_SEGMENT_DURATION keeps the lookup to a few rows.
* bound recording overlap queries by segment length
Clip, export, review and recording deletion, debug replay, motion search, and audio transcription found overlapping recordings with an OR clause that gave SQLite no start_time range, so every call read the camera's whole recording history (30 to 300 ms on a 30 day database). The classification and review description point lookups did the same whenever the timestamp had no recording. A shared recording_overlap helper now adds a start_time lower bound of MAX_SEGMENT_DURATION before the range, which drops no rows because segments are always shorter than that.
* probe webrtc before reporting it as not configured
The WebRTC gate read only the Frigate config, so an install with no go2rtc candidates showed WebRTC as not configured, even though go2rtc fills in default candidates at startup (including the internal one under the HA app) and WebRTC often worked. Unset candidates now run the connectivity probe first, and only a failed probe reports not configured. The not-configured reason shows as a neutral note that names the setting and says WebRTC is optional, rather than as a red error.
* validate trusted_proxies at config load
Malformed trusted_proxies entries were only parsed per request in get_remote_addr, so a typo logged a warning on every proxied request and the entry was skipped, collapsing all clients behind that proxy into one rate-limit bucket. The config now rejects unparseable entries at startup and get_remote_addr no longer needs the fallback. Host bits are accepted (192.168.1.1/24 reads as 192.168.1.0/24) so a common typo doesn't take down safe mode, which copies the auth section verbatim.
* remove path data from thumbnail payloads
The thumbnail data carried a full copy of the object's path, which went out as snapshot.path_data in every events message alongside the top level path_data. Nothing reads the snapshot copy, and the path has no length limit, so it only made events payloads larger.
* hide incompatible frigate+ models behind a toggle
* keep the probe failure detail in the not-configured console message
* use a unique id for each show incompatible models toggle
* pad the bottom of the desktop timeline so zoom buttons don't cover segments
* create the admin row when auth is disabled so notification registrations persist
Installs that never enabled auth had no admin row, so registering for notifications returned 200 but saved nothing. Frigate now creates an admin row with an empty password hash when auth is disabled, and treats that empty hash as first-time setup when auth is enabled later so a password is still generated and printed. Registration returns 404 when no user row was updated, and the success toast only shows after the request succeeds. The Users settings page hides Add User and Reset Password when auth is disabled and notes that accounts only apply once built-in auth is enabled.
* implement auto mode for single camera live view
* add transcoded live streams and stream ordering for auto mode
Cameras can now add lower quality live streams that go2rtc transcodes to H.264 on demand. `live.transcode` takes a source stream and a list of heights and bitrates, and each quality becomes a `{camera}_transcode_{height}p` stream. The config validator adds them to `live.streams` without moving any the user already placed, and drops them when transcoding is disabled or a height changes. `create_config.py` writes them into go2rtc's generated config at startup, and saving the config or deleting a camera syncs them through go2rtc's API, so no restart is needed. They use `#hardware`, so go2rtc picks a hardware encoder and falls back to the CPU when there isn't one.
The Live playback settings stream list can be reordered by drag, since its order is the auto ladder. Auto order sorts it by bitrate, measuring native streams through a new admin-only `/go2rtc/streams/{name}/bitrate` endpoint and using the configured bitrate for transcoded ones. A pure reorder wasn't saved before because RJSF, the settings form, and `update_yaml` all ignore map key order. Sections can now mark a map with `orderedMaps`, which sends the whole map with `replace_paths` so `config_set` rewrites it in order.
Transcoded streams aren't in `go2rtc.streams`, which only lists yaml streams, so the frontend treated them as not restreamed and fell back to jsmpeg. Every restream check now goes through `isRestreamedStream`.
Auto treated any stall with no bytes in the last 2 seconds as a dead camera and handed it to the error fallback, which went straight to jsmpeg. Heavy congestion can stop delivery completely, so congested viewers skipped every lower stream. Auto now declines only when stats show the camera offline, and a stall on a live camera steps down. The stream picker also has a Try highest quality button that sends auto back to the top stream.
* fixes
* allow users to select live streaming technology
* fix webrtc being downgraded to mse on load
`useUserPersistence` seeds state with the default and loads asynchronously, so the first render always used `mse` instead of the saved choice, and `useWebRTCGloballyAvailable` reports `checking` until the probe settles and re-enters that state on every consumer mount, so a saved `webrtc` was rewritten to `mse` even after the probe had already passed. On Safari the MSE player then timed out and latched the jsmpeg fallback. A pending probe now counts as available, the player waits on `autoLive` until the stored preferences load, and `handleError` gates on the mode in use since the fallback flag no longer implies webrtc is untried. A rejected IndexedDB read also resolves `loaded` now, so a blocked store can't leave the player waiting forever.
* add support for configurable ICE servers in WebRTC player
* add mic error state, fix dialog overwriting saved choice and dashboard ignoring stream
* tweaks
* restructure camera enable/disable pane
* remove obsolete camera edit form
* change terminology to off/on instead of disabled/enabled
* docs
* move menu options and add current camera name badge
* docs
* tweaks
* hide camera overrides badge from system sections
* show empty card on camera metrics page when no cameras are defined
* fix enabled camera state switch after adding via wizard
Cameras added mid-session have no WS state until the dispatcher publishes camera_activity (which only happens on a fresh onConnect). Fall back to the config's enabled value so the switch reflects reality immediately after the wizard closes.
* guard camera enabled access
console would throw errors after adding via camera wizard
* fix useOptimisticState dropping debounced setState under StrictMode
* use openvino on cpu as default model
- faster than tflite on cpu
- add to default generated config
* use an enum for model_size
the frontend will then render this as a select dropdown because of the changes in the json schema
* i18n
* sync object filter entries with tracked labels in camera config form
Filter sub-collapsibles in the camera Objects section are driven by `filters` dict keys, but profile merges and live track-switch edits don't add matching entries, so newly tracked labels (like from a profile override) had no collapsible. Synthesize default filter entries from `track` in the form data so every tracked label renders a collapsible; baseline data also gets the synthesized entries, so save payloads are unchanged.
* revalidate raw paths cache after config save so CameraPathWidget shows fresh credentials
* fix test
* restore masked ffmpeg credentials when persisting camera config
* formatting
* rebuild ffmpeg commands when enabling recording for the first time
Toggling record.enabled from the config UI updated the in-memory config but left ffmpeg running with its original command, so the record output args were never wired in and nothing landed in the cache for the maintainer to move. The record config update now rebuilds ffmpeg_cmds when enabled_in_config transitions, and the camera watchdog restarts ffmpeg on a false to true transition so the record output gets wired in. MQTT toggles, which only flip record.enabled at runtime, are unaffected and continue to work via the maintainer's drop/keep gate.
* keep record toggle switch in single camera view disabled until enabled in config
* fix override detection for sections unset in the global config
Override badges and the blue dot now compare against schema defaults for sections like motion that the API serializes as null when omitted from the global YAML, instead of treating any populated camera config as an override
* add support for config-aware patterns in section hiddenFields
Section configs can now declare dynamic hidden-field entries as functions of the loaded config; objects.ts uses this to hide auto-populated attribute filters (DHL, face, license_plate, etc.) from the form, save flow, and override popover when those labels aren't user-settable
* siimplify object filters handling
live updating was getting very messy. users will just need to save once they enable a new object in order to see filters for that object
