* 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
* check for a valid frame before using its shape
With the camera offline, no preview frame, and `camera-error.jpg` missing, `latest_frame` read `frame.shape` before its `frame is None` check, so it raised `AttributeError` and answered 500 with a traceback instead of the intended "Unable to get valid frame". The check now runs first.
* fix the has_clip self-heal for events with no recordings
`vod_event` looked for a `(body, 404)` tuple, but `vod_ts` returns a `JSONResponse`, so the check never matched and an old event whose recordings are gone kept offering a clip that can't play. It now checks the response status code.
* return 403 for a snapshot or thumbnail on another camera
The broad `except Exception` handlers in `event_snapshot` and `event_thumbnail` caught the `HTTPException` from `require_camera_access`, so a restricted user asking for another camera's snapshot got a 404 instead of a 403, and for an object still being tracked the snapshot was rendered before the check ran. Both endpoints now look up the event and check access in their own block, the way the other endpoints do, so a denial propagates.
* find DST transitions to the second
`get_dst_transitions` probed the offset once every 24 hours from the start time and reported a change at the first probe after it, up to a day late, so events, review items and recordings near a transition were grouped into days with the old offset. A transition after the last daily probe wasn't found at all. The end of the range is probed too now, and a probe that sees the offset change bisects the interval to the second of the transition.
* don't run page shortcuts for keys a dialog already handled
Radix dismisses a dialog on Escape from a capture-phase keydown listener and calls `preventDefault()` without stopping propagation, so `useKeyboardListener` still ran the page's Escape shortcut: cancelling the delete dialog in the face library or a classification model also cleared the whole selection. Keys another shortcut hook handled still get through, since their listener order changes with every render.
* fix train image filtering for a class with a dash
The backend writes a class with a `-` as `_` in train file names, since it splits those names on `-`, while a dataset folder keeps the dash. Filtering the Train grid by `half-open` compared it with `half_open` and hid every attempt. Both sides are normalized the same way now.
* don't edit a chat message while a reply streams
The edit button stayed active while a reply streamed. `submitConversation` returns early while loading, but the message bubble still closed its editor, so the edit was silently lost. The edit button is hidden while a reply streams, and an editor that's already open keeps its draft with send disabled until the reply ends.
* fix restart failing under non-root
restart_frigate() called psutil.Process(1).terminate() to signal s6-svscan, but s6-svscan runs as root while frigate runs as uid 1000, so the call raised AccessDenied. That exception escaped every caller: the UI restart button dropped its websocket client, MQTT restart and Save & Restart just logged and did nothing, and the watchdog crashed its own monitoring thread on a dead detector. This catches AccessDenied and falls through to the existing SIGINT branch, which exits the process for s6 to restart it.
* show runtime overrides in the settings form
The settings form read a camera section's saved config value, but its dependent warnings (audio transcription requiring audio detection, snapshots requiring detect, etc.) read the live config instead. A runtime toggle from the live view, MQTT, or an active profile can turn a section off without touching yaml, and that override persists across restarts, so the Enable switch showed on while the warning said the feature wasn't enabled. This adds an "Overridden (Live)" badge to any field whose live value differs from what's saved, and swaps the affected warnings to runtime-specific wording when a runtime override is the actual cause instead of the config.
* fix mobile overflowing icons in system due to new health pane
* fix genai settings keeping a stale model and dropping roles after save
Switching a GenAI entry's provider left the previous provider's model selected, so saving wrote a model the new provider doesn't serve. llama.cpp can't find that model in `/v1/models`, so the backend reported every capability as false for the entry, and once the save refetched `genai/models` the roles widget stripped `transcribe` from the form on its own. The section showed unsaved changes right after saving, and saving again would have dropped the role. Switching provider now clears the model, and the roles widget only strips a role for a model or provider picked in the form, since the entry-level capability flags only describe the saved model. A selected role stays visible when the provider can't confirm it, so it can still be switched off. The llama.cpp model list also no longer repeats a model whose alias matches its id, which is what `--alias` produces.
* close onvif sessions on shutdown
`OnvifController.close()` only stopped its event loop, so the aiohttp sessions each `ONVIFCamera` holds and the `_poll_config_updates` task were left to be garbage collected during interpreter shutdown, when their warnings can no longer be logged. Every restart ended with a run of `Unclosed client session` and `Task was destroyed but it is pending!` logging errors, which only became visible once restart started exiting the process itself under non-root. `close()` now closes each camera's client and cancels the tasks on the loop before stopping it.

* add sub stream recording with adaptive quality playback
Optionally record a second, lower bitrate stream alongside the main
recording stream via a `record_sub` input role and `record.sub` config block, with its own retention windows.
Recordings rows now carry the stream type plus the media details needed to serve both streams from one manifest: video codec, audio presence, audio codec and rate, and a record-time keyframe index.
Playback resolves coverage across both streams and merges them into a single VOD sequence, falling back to a discontinuity manifest with per-clip init segments when the media signatures differ. The player exposes a quality selector, and an auto governor picks the stream from stall time, bandwidth, codec support, and the save-data hint.
* fix tests and i18n
* Add combined motion and object Birdseye mode
Add a motion_objects mode that keeps Birdseye active when motion is detected or a confirmed tracked object is present, including stationary objects.
Wire the mode through configuration, runtime commands, API schemas, documentation, and UI labels. Exclude false-positive trackers and add regression coverage for Birdseye activation and MQTT validation.
* Refactor Birdseye activity types as booleans
Replace combination-specific Birdseye modes with composable boolean activity types for motion, active objects, stationary objects, and continuous display.
Preserve legacy single-mode configuration and MQTT inputs, support canonical comma-separated MQTT combinations, and allow scalar YAML values to be replaced by nested settings through the config API.
* Preserve OpenVINO config translations
Regenerate the configuration translations with the OpenVINO detector schema available so the unrelated production detector labels remain intact.
* Preserve partial Birdseye mode overrides
Allow an empty activity selection with a canonical NONE MQTT state so partial camera and profile overrides can disable inherited flags without failing validation.
Add regression coverage for camera and profile inheritance, document the NONE contract, and keep the generated schema fixture scoped to Birdseye.
* Address Birdseye activity review feedback
Move scalar mode compatibility into the 0.18-1 config migration and reject empty activity selections instead of publishing a NONE state.
Pass activity signals through a frozen dataclass, preserve existing active-object tracker behavior, and require confirmed stationary objects. Revert the generic YAML mutation and cover migration, inheritance, MQTT, and activation regressions.
* Move Birdseye migration to 0.19
Use the 0.19-0 configuration revision for converting scalar Birdseye modes to composable activity flags, and update the migration regression coverage accordingly.
* Remove Birdseye migration test
Drop the dedicated config migration test as requested during review while retaining the 0.19-0 migration implementation.
