-Large changes in motion like PTZ moves and camera switches between Color and IR mode should result in a pause in object detection. `lightning_threshold` defines the percentage of the image used to detect these substantial changes. Increasing this value makes motion detection more likely to treat large changes (like IR mode switches) as valid motion. Decreasing it makes motion detection more likely to ignore large amounts of motion, such as a person approaching a doorbell camera.
-
-Note that `lightning_threshold` does **not** stop motion-based recordings from being saved — it only prevents additional motion analysis after the threshold is exceeded, reducing false positive object detections during high-motion periods (e.g. storms or PTZ sweeps) without interfering with recordings.
-
 :::warning
 
-Some cameras, like doorbell cameras, may have missed detections when someone walks directly in front of the camera and the `lightning_threshold` causes motion detection to recalibrate. In this case, it may be desirable to increase the `lightning_threshold` to ensure these objects are not missed.

-  #           Setting this to 0.7 would cause Frigate to **skip** reporting
-  #           motion boxes when more than 70% of the image appears to change
-  #           (e.g. during lightning storms, IR/color mode switches, or other
-  #           sudden lighting events).
-  skip_motion_threshold: 0.7
-```
-
-This option is handy when you want to prevent large transient changes from triggering recordings or object detection. It differs from `lightning_threshold` because it completely suppresses motion instead of just forcing a recalibration.
-
-:::warning
-
-When the skip threshold is exceeded, **no motion is reported** for that frame, meaning **nothing is recorded** for that frame. That means you can miss something important, like a PTZ camera auto-tracking an object or activity while the camera is moving. If you prefer to guarantee that every frame is saved, leave this unset and accept occasional recordings containing scene noise — they typically only take up a few megabytes and are quick to scan in the timeline UI.

 title: Analyzing Object Detection
 ---
 
-Frigate provides several tools for investigating object detection and tracking behavior: reviewing recorded detections through the UI, using the built-in Debug Replay feature, and manually setting up a dummy camera for advanced scenarios.
+When investigating object detection or tracking problems, it can be helpful to replay an exported video as a temporary "dummy" camera. This lets you reproduce issues locally, iterate on configuration (detections, zones, enrichment settings), and capture logs and clips for analysis.
 
-## Reviewing Detections in the UI
+## When to use
 
-Before setting up a replay, you can often diagnose detection issues by reviewing existing recordings directly in the Frigate UI.
+- Replaying an exported clip to reproduce incorrect detections
+- Testing configuration changes (model settings, trackers, filters) against a known clip
+- Gathering deterministic logs and recordings for debugging or issue reports
 
-### Detail View (History)
+## Example Config
 
-The **Detail Stream** view in History shows recorded video with detection overlays (bounding boxes, path points, and zone highlights) drawn on top. Select a review item to see its tracked objects and lifecycle events. Clicking a lifecycle event seeks the video to that point so you can see exactly what the detector saw.
-
-### Tracking Details (Explore)
-
-In **Explore**, clicking a thumbnail opens the **Tracking Details** pane, which shows the full lifecycle of a single tracked object: every detection, zone entry/exit, and attribute change. The video plays back with the bounding box overlaid, letting you step through the object's entire lifecycle.
-
-### Annotation Offset
-
-Both views support an **Annotation Offset** setting (`detect.annotation_offset` in your camera config) that shifts the detection overlay in time relative to the recorded video. This compensates for the timing drift between the `detect` and `record` pipelines.
-
-These streams use fundamentally different clocks with different buffering and latency characteristics, so the detection data and the recorded video are never perfectly synchronized. The annotation offset shifts the overlay to visually align the bounding boxes with the objects in the recorded video.
-
-#### Why the offset varies between clips
-
-The base timing drift between detect and record is roughly constant for a given camera, so a single offset value works well on average. However, you may notice the alignment is not pixel-perfect in every clip. This is normal and caused by several factors:
-
-- **Keyframe-constrained seeking**: When the browser seeks to a timestamp, it can only land on the nearest keyframe. Each recording segment has keyframes at different positions relative to the detection timestamps, so the same offset may land slightly early in one clip and slightly late in another.
-- **Segment boundary trimming**: When a recording range starts mid-segment, the video is trimmed to the requested start point. This trim may not align with a keyframe, shifting the effective reference point.
-- **Capture-time jitter**: Network buffering, camera buffer flushes, and ffmpeg's own buffering mean the system-clock timestamp and the corresponding recorded frame are not always offset by exactly the same amount.
-
-The per-clip variation is typically quite low and is mostly an artifact of keyframe granularity rather than a change in the true drift. A "perfect" alignment would require per-frame, keyframe-aware offset compensation, which is not practical. Treat the annotation offset as a best-effort average for your camera.
-
-## Debug Replay
-
-Debug Replay lets you re-run Frigate's detection pipeline against a section of recorded video without manually configuring a dummy camera. It automatically extracts the recording, creates a temporary camera with the same detection settings as the original, and loops the clip through the pipeline so you can observe detections in real time.
-
-### When to use
-
-- Reproducing a detection or tracking issue from a specific time range
-- Testing configuration changes (model settings, zones, filters, motion) against a known clip
-- Gathering logs and debug overlays for a bug report
-
-:::note
-
-Only one replay session can be active at a time. If a session is already running, you will be prompted to navigate to it or stop it first.
-
-:::
-
-### Variables to consider
-
-- The replay will not always produce identical results to the original run. Different frames may be selected on replay, which can change detections and tracking.
-- Motion detection depends on the exact frames used; small frame shifts can change motion regions and therefore what gets passed to the detector.
-- Object detection is not fully deterministic: models and post-processing can yield slightly different results across runs.
-
-Treat the replay as a close approximation rather than an exact reproduction. Run multiple loops and examine the debug overlays and logs to understand the behavior.
-
-## Manual Dummy Camera
-
-For advanced scenarios — such as testing with a clip from a different source, debugging ffmpeg behavior, or running a clip through a completely custom configuration — you can set up a dummy camera manually.
-
-### Example config
-
-Place the clip you want to replay in a location accessible to Frigate (for example `/media/frigate/` or the repository `debug/` folder when developing). Then add a temporary camera to your `config/config.yml`:

 1. Export or copy the clip you want to replay to the Frigate host (e.g., `/media/frigate/` or `debug/clips/`). Depending on what you are looking to debug, it is often helpful to add some "pre-capture" time (where the tracked object is not yet visible) to the clip when exporting.
 2. Add the temporary camera to `config/config.yml` (example above). Use a unique name such as `test` or `replay_camera` so it's easy to remove later.

-### Troubleshooting
+## Variables to consider in object tracking
 
-- **No video**: verify the file path is correct and accessible from the Frigate process/container.
-- **FFmpeg errors**: check the log output and adjust `input_args` for your file format. You may also need to disable hardware acceleration (`hwaccel_args: ""`) for the dummy camera.
-- **No detections**: confirm the camera `roles` include `detect` and that the model/detector configuration is enabled.
+- The exported video will not always line up exactly with how it originally ran through Frigate (or even with the last loop). Different frames may be used on replay, which can change detections and tracking.
+- Motion detection depends on the frames used; small frame shifts can change motion regions and therefore what gets passed to the detector.
+- Object detection is not deterministic: models and post-processing can yield different results across runs, so you may not get identical detections or track IDs every time.
+
+When debugging, treat the replay as a close approximation rather than a byte-for-byte replay. Capture multiple runs, enable recording if helpful, and examine logs and saved event clips to understand variability.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- No video: verify the path is correct and accessible from the Frigate process/container.
+- FFmpeg errors: check the log output for ffmpeg-specific flags and adjust `input_args` accordingly for your file/container. You may also need to disable hardware acceleration (`hwaccel_args: ""`) for the dummy camera.
+- No detections: confirm the camera `roles` include `detect`, and model/detector configuration is enabled.
