-# GitHub Copilot Instructions for Frigate NVR
-
-This document provides coding guidelines and best practices for contributing to Frigate NVR, a complete and local NVR designed for Home Assistant with AI object detection.
-
-## Project Overview
-
-Frigate NVR is a realtime object detection system for IP cameras that uses:
-
-- **Backend**: Python 3.13+ with FastAPI, OpenCV, TensorFlow/ONNX
-- **Frontend**: React with TypeScript, Vite, TailwindCSS
-- **Architecture**: Multiprocessing design with ZMQ and MQTT communication
-- **Focus**: Minimal resource usage with maximum performance
-
-## Code Review Guidelines
-
-When reviewing code, do NOT comment on:
-
-- Missing imports - Static analysis tooling catches these
-- Code formatting - Ruff (Python) and Prettier (TypeScript/React) handle formatting
-- Minor style inconsistencies already enforced by linters
-
-## Python Backend Standards
-
-### Python Requirements
-
-- **Compatibility**: Python 3.13+
-- **Language Features**: Use modern Python features:
-  - Pattern matching
-  - Type hints (comprehensive typing preferred)
-  - f-strings (preferred over `%` or `.format()`)
-  - Dataclasses
-  - Async/await patterns
-
-### Code Quality Standards
-
-- **Formatting**: Ruff (configured in `pyproject.toml`)
-- **Linting**: Ruff with rules defined in project config
-- **Type Checking**: Use type hints consistently
-- **Testing**: unittest framework - use `python3 -u -m unittest` to run tests
-- **Language**: American English for all code, comments, and documentation
-
-### Logging Standards
-
-- **Logger Pattern**: Use module-level logger
-
-  ```python
-  import logging
-
-  logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
-  ```
-
-- **Format Guidelines**:
-  - No periods at end of log messages
-  - No sensitive data (keys, tokens, passwords)
-  - Use lazy logging: `logger.debug("Message with %s", variable)`
-- **Log Levels**:
-  - `debug`: Development and troubleshooting information
-  - `info`: Important runtime events (startup, shutdown, state changes)
-  - `warning`: Recoverable issues that should be addressed
-  - `error`: Errors that affect functionality but don't crash the app
-  - `exception`: Use in except blocks to include traceback
-
-### Error Handling
-
-- **Exception Types**: Choose most specific exception available
-- **Try/Catch Best Practices**:
-  - Only wrap code that can throw exceptions
-  - Keep try blocks minimal - process data after the try/except
-  - Avoid bare exceptions except in background tasks
-
-  Bad pattern:
-
-  ```python
-  try:
-      data = await device.get_data()  # Can throw
-      # ❌ Don't process data inside try block
-      processed = data.get("value", 0) * 100
-      result = processed
-  except DeviceError:
-      logger.error("Failed to get data")
-  ```
-
-  Good pattern:
-
-  ```python
-  try:
-      data = await device.get_data()  # Can throw
-  except DeviceError:
-      logger.error("Failed to get data")
-      return
-
-  # ✅ Process data outside try block
-  processed = data.get("value", 0) * 100
-  result = processed
-  ```
-
-### Async Programming
-
-- **External I/O**: All external I/O operations must be async
-- **Best Practices**:
-  - Avoid sleeping in loops - use `asyncio.sleep()` not `time.sleep()`
-  - Avoid awaiting in loops - use `asyncio.gather()` instead
-  - No blocking calls in async functions
-  - Use `asyncio.create_task()` for background operations
-- **Thread Safety**: Use proper synchronization for shared state
-
-### Documentation Standards
-
-- **Module Docstrings**: Concise descriptions at top of files
-  ```python
-  """Utilities for motion detection and analysis."""
-  ```
-- **Function Docstrings**: Required for public functions and methods
-
-  ```python
-  async def process_frame(frame: ndarray, config: Config) -> Detection:
-      """Process a video frame for object detection.
-
-      Args:
-          frame: The video frame as numpy array
-          config: Detection configuration
-
-      Returns:
-          Detection results with bounding boxes
-      """
-  ```
-
-- **Comment Style**:
-  - Explain the "why" not just the "what"
-  - Keep lines under 88 characters when possible
-  - Use clear, descriptive comments
-
-### File Organization
-
-- **API Endpoints**: `frigate/api/` - FastAPI route handlers
-- **Configuration**: `frigate/config/` - Configuration parsing and validation
-- **Detectors**: `frigate/detectors/` - Object detection backends
-- **Events**: `frigate/events/` - Event management and storage
-- **Utilities**: `frigate/util/` - Shared utility functions
-
-## Frontend (React/TypeScript) Standards
-
-### Internationalization (i18n)
-
-- **CRITICAL**: Never write user-facing strings directly in components
-- **Always use react-i18next**: Import and use the `t()` function
-
-  ```tsx
-  import { useTranslation } from "react-i18next";
-
-  function MyComponent() {
-    const { t } = useTranslation(["views/live"]);
-    return <div>{t("camera_not_found")}</div>;
-  }
-  ```
-
-- **Translation Files**: Add English strings to the appropriate json files in `web/public/locales/en`
-- **Namespaces**: Organize translations by feature/view (e.g., `views/live`, `common`, `views/system`)
-
-### Code Quality
-
-- **Linting**: ESLint (see `web/.eslintrc.cjs`)
-- **Formatting**: Prettier with Tailwind CSS plugin
-- **Type Safety**: TypeScript strict mode enabled
-- **Testing**: Vitest for unit tests
-
-### Component Patterns
-
-- **UI Components**: Use Radix UI primitives (in `web/src/components/ui/`)
-- **Styling**: TailwindCSS with `cn()` utility for class merging
-- **State Management**: React hooks (useState, useEffect, useCallback, useMemo)
-- **Data Fetching**: Custom hooks with proper loading and error states
-
-### ESLint Rules
-
-Key rules enforced:
-
-- `react-hooks/rules-of-hooks`: error
-- `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps`: error
-- `no-console`: error (use proper logging or remove)
-- `@typescript-eslint/no-explicit-any`: warn (always use proper types instead of `any`)
-- Unused variables must be prefixed with `_`
-- Comma dangles required for multiline objects/arrays
-
-### File Organization
-
-- **Pages**: `web/src/pages/` - Route components
-- **Views**: `web/src/views/` - Complex view components
-- **Components**: `web/src/components/` - Reusable components
-- **Hooks**: `web/src/hooks/` - Custom React hooks
-- **API**: `web/src/api/` - API client functions
-- **Types**: `web/src/types/` - TypeScript type definitions
-
-## Testing Requirements
-
-### Backend Testing
-
-- **Framework**: Python unittest
-- **Run Command**: `python3 -u -m unittest`
-- **Location**: `frigate/test/`
-- **Coverage**: Aim for comprehensive test coverage of core functionality
-- **Pattern**: Use `TestCase` classes with descriptive test method names
-  ```python
-  class TestMotionDetection(unittest.TestCase):
-      def test_detects_motion_above_threshold(self):
-          # Test implementation
-  ```
-
-### Test Best Practices
-
-- Always have a way to test your work and confirm your changes
-- Write tests for bug fixes to prevent regressions
-- Test edge cases and error conditions
-- Mock external dependencies (cameras, APIs, hardware)
-- Use fixtures for test data
-
-## Development Commands
-
-### Python Backend
-
-```bash
-# Run all tests
-python3 -u -m unittest
-
-# Run specific test file
-python3 -u -m unittest frigate.test.test_ffmpeg_presets
-
-# Check formatting (Ruff)
-ruff format --check frigate/
-
-# Apply formatting
-ruff format frigate/
-
-# Run linter
-ruff check frigate/
-```
-
-### Frontend (from web/ directory)
-
-```bash
-# Start dev server (AI agents should never run this directly unless asked)
-npm run dev
-
-# Build for production
-npm run build
-
-# Run linter
-npm run lint
-
-# Fix linting issues
-npm run lint:fix
-
-# Format code
-npm run prettier:write
-```
-
-### Docker Development
-
-AI agents should never run these commands directly unless instructed.
-
-```bash
-# Build local image
-make local
-
-# Build debug image
-make debug
-```
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### API Endpoint Pattern
-
-```python
-from fastapi import APIRouter, Request
-from frigate.api.defs.tags import Tags
-
-router = APIRouter(tags=[Tags.Events])
-
-@router.get("/events")
-async def get_events(request: Request, limit: int = 100):
-    """Retrieve events from the database."""
-    # Implementation
-```
-
-### Configuration Access
-
-```python
-# Access Frigate configuration
-config: FrigateConfig = request.app.frigate_config
-camera_config = config.cameras["front_door"]
-```
-
-### Database Queries
-
-```python
-from frigate.models import Event
-
-# Use Peewee ORM for database access
-events = (
-    Event.select()
-    .where(Event.camera == camera_name)
-    .order_by(Event.start_time.desc())
-    .limit(limit)
-)
-```
-
-## Common Anti-Patterns to Avoid
-
-### ❌ Avoid These
-
-```python
-# Blocking operations in async functions
-data = requests.get(url)  # ❌ Use async HTTP client
-time.sleep(5)  # ❌ Use asyncio.sleep()
-
-# Hardcoded strings in React components
-<div>Camera not found</div>  # ❌ Use t("camera_not_found")
-
-# Missing error handling
-data = await api.get_data()  # ❌ No exception handling
-
-# Bare exceptions in regular code
-try:
-    value = await sensor.read()
-except Exception:  # ❌ Too broad
-    logger.error("Failed")
-```
-
-### ✅ Use These Instead
-
-```python
-# Async operations
-import aiohttp
-async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
-    async with session.get(url) as response:
-        data = await response.json()
-
-await asyncio.sleep(5)  # ✅ Non-blocking
-
-# Translatable strings in React
-const { t } = useTranslation();
-<div>{t("camera_not_found")}</div>  # ✅ Translatable
-
-# Proper error handling
-try:
-    data = await api.get_data()
-except ApiException as err:
-    logger.error("API error: %s", err)
-    raise
-
-# Specific exceptions
-try:
-    value = await sensor.read()
-except SensorException as err:  # ✅ Specific
-    logger.exception("Failed to read sensor")
-```
-

 The FeatureList on the [ONVIF Conformant Products Database](https://www.onvif.org/conformant-products/) can provide a starting point to determine a camera's compatibility with Frigate's autotracking. Look to see if a camera lists `PTZRelative`, `PTZRelativePanTilt` and/or `PTZRelativeZoom`. These features are required for autotracking, but some cameras still fail to respond even if they claim support. If they are missing, autotracking will not work (though basic PTZ in the WebUI might). Avoid cameras with no database entry unless they are confirmed as working below.

-A tracked object can only have a single sub label. If you are using Triggers or Face Recognition and you configure an object classification model for `person` using the sub label type, your sub label may not be assigned correctly as it depends on which enrichment completes its analysis first. This could also occur with `car` objects that are assigned a sub label for a delivery carrier. Consider using the `attribute` type instead.

 - **Selecting training images**: Images scoring below 100% due to new conditions (e.g., first snow of the year, seasonal changes) or variations (e.g., objects temporarily in view, insects at night) are good candidates for training, as they represent scenarios different from the default state.

-### Model Types: Instruct vs Thinking
-
-Most vision-language models are available as **instruct** models, which are fine-tuned to follow instructions and respond concisely to prompts. However, some models (such as certain Qwen-VL or minigpt variants) offer both **instruct** and **thinking** versions.
-
-- **Instruct models** are always recommended for use with Frigate. These models generate direct, relevant, actionable descriptions that best fit Frigate's object and event summary use case.
-- **Thinking models** are fine-tuned for more free-form, open-ended, and speculative outputs, which are typically not concise and may not provide the practical summaries Frigate expects. For this reason, Frigate does **not** recommend or support using thinking models.
-
-Some models are labeled as **hybrid** (capable of both thinking and instruct tasks). In these cases, Frigate will always use instruct-style prompts and specifically disables thinking-mode behaviors to ensure concise, useful responses.
-
-**Recommendation:**
-Always select the `-instruct` or documented instruct/tagged variant of any model you use in your Frigate configuration. If in doubt, refer to your model provider’s documentation or model library for guidance on the correct model variant to use.

 Optionally, you can generate the description using a snapshot (if enabled) by setting `use_snapshot` to `True`. By default, this is set to `False`, which sends the uncompressed images from the `detect` stream collected over the object's lifetime to the model. Once the object lifecycle ends, only a single compressed and cropped thumbnail is saved with the tracked object. Using a snapshot might be useful when you want to _regenerate_ a tracked object's description as it will provide the AI with a higher-quality image (typically downscaled by the AI itself) than the cropped/compressed thumbnail. Using a snapshot otherwise has a trade-off in that only a single image is sent to your provider, which will limit the model's ability to determine object movement or direction.

 When your browser runs into problems playing back your camera streams, it will log short error messages to the browser console. They indicate playback, codec, or network issues on the client/browser side, not something server side with Frigate itself. Below are the common messages you may see and simple actions you can take to try to resolve them.
 
 - **startup**
+
   - What it means: The player failed to initialize or connect to the live stream (network or startup error).
   - What to try: Reload the Live view or click _Reset_. Verify `go2rtc` is running and the camera stream is reachable. Try switching to a different stream from the Live UI dropdown (if available) or use a different browser.
 
   - Possible console messages from the player code:
+
     - `Error opening MediaSource.`
     - `Browser reported a network error.`
     - `Max error count ${errorCount} exceeded.` (the numeric value will vary)
 
 - **mse-decode**
+
   - What it means: The browser reported a decoding error while trying to play the stream, which usually is a result of a codec incompatibility or corrupted frames.
   - What to try: Check the browser console for the supported and negotiated codecs. Ensure your camera/restream is using H.264 video and AAC audio (these are the most compatible). If your camera uses a non-standard audio codec, configure `go2rtc` to transcode the stream to AAC. Try another browser (some browsers have stricter MSE/codec support) and, for iPhone, ensure you're on iOS 17.1 or newer.
 
   - Possible console messages from the player code:
+
     - `Safari cannot open MediaSource.`
     - `Safari reported InvalidStateError.`
     - `Safari reported decoding errors.`
 
 - **stalled**
+
   - What it means: Playback has stalled because the player has fallen too far behind live (extended buffering or no data arriving).
   - What to try: This is usually indicative of the browser struggling to decode too many high-resolution streams at once. Try selecting a lower-bandwidth stream (substream), reduce the number of live streams open, improve the network connection, or lower the camera resolution. Also check your camera's keyframe (I-frame) interval — shorter intervals make playback start and recover faster. You can also try increasing the timeout value in the UI pane of Frigate's settings.

-Frigate has two kinds of masks: motion masks and object filter masks. Both are narrow tools for fine-tuning, **not for hiding an area from Frigate**. Masks should be used sparingly; in most cases where users reach for one, a [zone](zones.md) with `required_zones` is the right tool instead.

 ## Motion masks
 
 Motion masks are used to prevent unwanted types of motion from triggering detection. Try watching the Debug feed (Settings --> Debug) with `Motion Boxes` enabled to see what may be regularly detected as motion. For example, you want to mask out your timestamp, the sky, rooftops, etc. Keep in mind that this mask only prevents motion from being detected and does not prevent objects from being detected if object detection was started due to motion in unmasked areas. Motion is also used during object tracking to refine the object detection area in the next frame. _Over-masking will make it more difficult for objects to be tracked._

 That may be the case for you. Frigate will definitely work harder tracking people on the sidewalk to make sure it doesn't miss anyone who steps foot on your stoop. The trade off with the way you have it now is slower recognition of objects and potential misses. That may be acceptable based on your needs. Also, if your resolution is low enough on the detect stream, your regions may already be so big that they grab the entire object anyway.

-## Common mistakes
-
-**"I added a motion mask to ignore my driveway/sidewalk."**
-A motion mask doesn't hide an area from Frigate. Objects can still be detected and tracked inside a masked area. The mask only stops motion _in that area_ from triggering object detection. If you want activity on the sidewalk to never produce a review item, define a [zone](zones.md) over the area you DO care about (your stoop, your driveway) and add it to `review.alerts.required_zones`. Frigate will still see people on the sidewalk, but it won't create an alert until they cross into the zone.
-
-**"I added an object filter mask because I don't care about cars in my yard."**
-Object filter masks are for stubborn false positives at fixed locations, not for filtering whole areas or whole object types. If you only want alerts when a car enters the driveway, use a [zone](zones.md) with `required_zones`. If you don't care about a whole object type on this camera, remove it from [`objects.track`](objects.md).
-
-**"I masked everything except a thin strip on my stoop."**
-Heavy masking hurts tracking. Frigate uses motion near a tracked object's previous bounding box to decide where to look in the next frame; with most of the frame masked, an object walking from an unmasked area into a masked one effectively disappears and gets picked up as a "new" object when it reappears. For example: someone walks down your sidewalk, stops under a tree (masked area) to tie their shoe, then continues. Frigate sees that as two separate people and can create two separate review items. Because Frigate needs several consecutive frames above the confidence threshold to commit to a detection, each re-appearance can also delay or miss alerts. Use `required_zones` for "only alert me about this spot" and leave the surrounding area unmasked so tracking stays intact.

 #### Using a Custom Model
 
-To use your own custom model, first compile it into a [.dfp](https://developer.memryx.com/2p1/specs/files.html#dataflow-program) file, which is the format used by MemryX.
+To use your own model:
 
-#### Compile the Model
+1.  Package your compiled model into a `.zip` file.
 
-Custom models must be compiled using **MemryX SDK 2.1**.
+2.  The `.zip` must contain the compiled `.dfp` file.
 
-Before compiling your model, install the MemryX Neural Compiler tools from the
-[Install Tools](https://developer.memryx.com/2p1/get_started/install_tools.html) page on the **host**.
+3.  Depending on the model, the compiler may also generate a cropped post-processing network. If present, it will be named with the suffix `_post.onnx`.
 
-> **Note:** It is recommended to compile the model on the host machine, or on another separate machine, rather than inside the Frigate Docker container. Installing the compiler inside Docker may conflict with container packages. It is recommended to create a Python virtual environment and install the compiler there.
+4.  Bind-mount the `.zip` file into the container and specify its path using `model.path` in your config.
 
-Once the SDK 2.1 environment is set up, follow the
-[MemryX Compiler](https://developer.memryx.com/2p1/tools/neural_compiler.html#usage) documentation to compile your model.
+5.  Update the `labelmap_path` to match your custom model's labels.
 
-Example:
-
-```bash
-mx_nc -m yolonas.onnx -c 4 --autocrop -v --dfp_fname yolonas.dfp
-```

-Snapshots sent via MQTT are configured in the [config file](/configuration) under `cameras -> your_camera -> mqtt`
-
-## Frame Selection
-
-Frigate does not save every frame — it picks a single "best" frame for each tracked object and uses it for both the snapshot and clean copy. As the object is tracked across frames, Frigate continuously evaluates whether the current frame is better than the previous best based on detection confidence, object size, and the presence of key attributes like faces or license plates. Frames where the object touches the edge of the frame are deprioritized. The snapshot is written to disk once tracking ends using whichever frame was determined to be the best.
-
-MQTT snapshots are published more frequently — each time a better thumbnail frame is found during tracking, or when the current best image is older than `best_image_timeout` (default: 60s). These use their own annotation settings configured under `cameras -> your_camera -> mqtt`.
-
-## Clean Copy
-
-Frigate can produce up to two snapshot files per event, each used in different places:
-
-| Version | File | Annotations | Used by |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| **Regular snapshot** | `<camera>-<id>.jpg` | Respects your `timestamp`, `bounding_box`, `crop`, and `height` settings | API (`/api/events/<id>/snapshot.jpg`), MQTT (`<camera>/<label>/snapshot`), Explore pane in the UI |
-| **Clean copy** | `<camera>-<id>-clean.webp` | Always unannotated — no bounding box, no timestamp, no crop, full resolution | API (`/api/events/<id>/snapshot-clean.webp`), [Frigate+](/plus/first_model) submissions, "Download Clean Snapshot" in the UI |
-
-MQTT snapshots are configured separately under `cameras -> your_camera -> mqtt` and are unrelated to the clean copy.
-
-The clean copy is required for submitting events to [Frigate+](/plus/first_model) — if you plan to use Frigate+, keep `clean_copy` enabled regardless of your other snapshot settings.

-For the best experience in Frigate's UI, configure your camera so that the detection and recording streams use the same aspect ratio. For example, if your main stream is 3840x2160 (16:9), set your substream to 640x360 (also 16:9) instead of 640x480 (4:3). While not strictly required, matching aspect ratios helps ensure seamless live stream display and preview/recordings playback.

 ### Choosing a detect resolution
 
 The ideal resolution for detection is one where the objects you want to detect fit inside the dimensions of the model used by Frigate (320x320). Frigate does not pass the entire camera frame to object detection. It will crop an area of motion from the full frame and look in that portion of the frame. If the area being inspected is larger than 320x320, Frigate must resize it before running object detection. Higher resolutions do not improve the detection accuracy because the additional detail is lost in the resize. Below you can see a reference for how large a 320x320 area is against common resolutions.

You can calculate the maximum performance of your Coral based on the inference speed reported by Frigate. With an inference speed of 10, your Coral will top out at `1000/10=100`, or 100 frames per second.

-   Renaming allows the original driver to be restored later if needed.
-   First, locate the currently installed kernel module:

-
-   And rename the module by appending .bak:

 There are many different hardware options for object detection depending on priorities and available hardware. See [the recommended hardware page](./hardware.md#detectors) for more specifics on what hardware is recommended for object detection.
 
-### CPU
-
-Frigate requires a CPU with AVX + AVX2 instructions. Most modern CPUs (post-2011) support AVX and AVX2, but it is generally absent in low-power or budget-oriented processors, particularly older Intel Pentium, Celeron, and Atom-based chips. Specifically, Intel Celeron and Pentium models prior to the 2020 Tiger Lake generation typically lack AVX. Older Intel Xeon models may have AVX, but may lack AVX2.

 Storage is an important consideration when planning a new installation. To get a more precise estimate of your storage requirements, you can use an IP camera storage calculator. Websites like [IPConfigure Storage Calculator](https://calculator.ipconfigure.com/) can help you determine the necessary disk space based on your camera settings.

 ### Can I keep using my Frigate+ models even if I do not renew my subscription?
 
-Yes. Subscriptions to Frigate+ provide access to the infrastructure used to train the models. Models you train during an active subscription remain licensed for your continued use even after your subscription ends — models already in your model cache will keep working indefinitely. An active subscription is required to train new models and download new versions.

-### Can I use Frigate+ models commercially?
-
-A standard subscription covers use on camera systems you own or operate, including for your business. A shop, restaurant, warehouse, or office running Frigate+ at its own locations (including multiple locations) is exactly the kind of use the subscription is for.
-What the standard subscription does not cover is using Frigate+ models to provide a product or service to others. If you're deploying models at your customers' sites, bundling them with hardware you sell, or running them as part of a hosted or managed service, even if your customers never receive the model files themselves, you'll need a commercial license.

 ### YOLOv9 Details
 
-YOLOv9 models are available in `s`, `t`, `edgetpu` variants. When requesting a `yolov9` model, you will be prompted to choose a variant. If you want the model to be compatible with a Google Coral, you will need to choose the `edgetpu` variant. If you are unsure what variant to choose, you should perform some tests with the base models to find the performance level that suits you. The `s` size is most similar to the current `yolonas` models in terms of inference times and accuracy, and a good place to start is the `320x320` resolution model for `yolov9s`.

-title: High CPU Usage
----
-
-High CPU usage can impact Frigate's performance and responsiveness. This guide outlines the most effective configuration changes to help reduce CPU consumption and optimize resource usage.
-
-## 1. Hardware Acceleration for Video Decoding
-
-**Priority: Critical**
-
-Video decoding is one of the most CPU-intensive tasks in Frigate. While an AI accelerator handles object detection, it does not assist with decoding video streams. Hardware acceleration (hwaccel) offloads this work to your GPU or specialized video decode hardware, significantly reducing CPU usage and enabling you to support more cameras on the same hardware.
-
-### Key Concepts
-
-**Resolution & FPS Impact:** The decoding burden grows exponentially with resolution and frame rate. A 4K stream at 30 FPS requires roughly 4 times the processing power of a 1080p stream at the same frame rate, and doubling the frame rate doubles the decode workload. This is why hardware acceleration becomes critical when working with multiple high-resolution cameras.
-
-**Hardware Acceleration Benefits:** By using dedicated video decode hardware, you can:
-
-- Significantly reduce CPU usage per camera stream
-- Support 2-3x more cameras on the same hardware
-- Free up CPU resources for motion detection and other Frigate processes
-- Reduce system heat and power consumption
-
-### Configuration
-
-Frigate provides preset configurations for common hardware acceleration scenarios. Set up `hwaccel_args` based on your hardware in your [configuration](../configuration/reference) as described in the [getting started guide](../guides/getting_started).
-
-### Troubleshooting Hardware Acceleration
-
-If hardware acceleration isn't working:
-
-1. Check Frigate logs for FFmpeg errors related to hwaccel
-2. Verify the hardware device is accessible inside the container
-3. Ensure your camera streams use H.264 or H.265 codecs (most common)
-4. Try different presets if the automatic detection fails
-5. Check that your GPU drivers are properly installed on the host system
-
-## 2. Detector Selection and Configuration
-
-**Priority: Critical**
-
-Choosing the right detector for your hardware is the single most important factor for detection performance. The detector is responsible for running the AI model that identifies objects in video frames. Different detector types have vastly different performance characteristics and hardware requirements, as detailed in the [hardware documentation](../frigate/hardware).
-
-### Understanding Detector Performance
-
-Frigate uses motion detection as a first-line check before running expensive object detection, as explained in the [motion detection documentation](../configuration/motion_detection). When motion is detected, Frigate creates a "region" (the green boxes in the debug viewer) and sends it to the detector. The detector's inference speed determines how many detections per second your system can handle.
-
-**Calculating Detector Capacity:** Your detector has a finite capacity measured in detections per second. With an inference speed of 10ms, your detector can handle approximately 100 detections per second (1000ms / 10ms = 100).If your cameras collectively require more than this capacity, you'll experience delays, missed detections, or the system will fall behind.
-
-### Choosing the Right Detector
-
-Different detectors have vastly different performance characteristics, see the expected performance for object detectors in [the hardware docs](../frigate/hardware)
-
-### Multiple Detector Instances
-
-When a single detector cannot keep up with your camera count, some detector types (`openvino`, `onnx`) allow you to define multiple detector instances to share the workload. This is particularly useful with GPU-based detectors that have sufficient VRAM to run multiple inference processes.
-
-For detailed instructions on configuring multiple detectors, see the [Object Detectors documentation](../configuration/object_detectors).
-
-
-**When to add a second detector:**
-
-- Skipped FPS is consistently > 0 even during normal activity
-
-### Model Selection and Optimization
-
-The model you use significantly impacts detector performance. Frigate provides default models optimized for each detector type, but you can customize them as described in the [detector documentation](../configuration/object_detectors).
-
-**Model Size Trade-offs:**
-
-- Smaller models (320x320): Faster inference, Frigate is specifically optimized for a 320x320 size model.
-- Larger models (640x640): Slower inference, can sometimes have higher accuracy on very large objects that take up a majority of the frame.

-title: Analyzing Object Detection
----
-
-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.
-
-## When to use
-
-- 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
-
-## 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` like this:
-
-```yaml
-cameras:
-  test:
-    ffmpeg:
-      inputs:
-        - path: /media/frigate/car-stopping.mp4
-          input_args: -re -stream_loop -1 -fflags +genpts
-          roles:
-            - detect
-    detect:
-      enabled: true
-    record:
-      enabled: false
-    snapshots:
-      enabled: false
-```
-
-- `-re -stream_loop -1` tells `ffmpeg` to play the file in realtime and loop indefinitely, which is useful for long debugging sessions.
-- `-fflags +genpts` helps generate presentation timestamps when they are missing in the file.
-
-## Steps
-
-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.
-   - If you're debugging a specific camera, copy the settings from that camera (frame rate, model/enrichment settings, zones, etc.) into the temporary camera so the replay closely matches the original environment. Leave `record` and `snapshots` disabled unless you are specifically debugging recording or snapshot behavior.
-3. Restart Frigate.
-4. Observe the Debug view in the UI and logs as the clip is replayed. Watch detections, zones, or any feature you're looking to debug, and note any errors in the logs to reproduce the issue.
-5. Iterate on camera or enrichment settings (model, fps, zones, filters) and re-check the replay until the behavior is resolved.
-6. Remove the temporary camera from your config after debugging to avoid spurious telemetry or recordings.
-
-## Variables to consider in object tracking
-
-- 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.

 TCP ensures that all data packets arrive in the correct order. This is crucial for video recording, decoding, and stream processing, which is why Frigate enforces a TCP connection. UDP is faster but less reliable, as it does not guarantee packet delivery or order, and VLC does not have the same requirements as Frigate.
 
 You can still configure Frigate to use UDP by using ffmpeg input args or the preset `preset-rtsp-udp`. See the [ffmpeg presets](/configuration/ffmpeg_presets) documentation.
-
-### Why does Frigate keep creating new events for my parked car?
-
-Stationary tracking is designed to _prevent_ this — a parked car should stay one tracked object and not generate new events. If you're getting repeated events for the same car, it's likely that Frigate is losing the tracked object and re-detecting it as a new one.
-
-Open one of the events in Explore → **Tracking Details**. If the detection scores are low (< 70% or so), the model isn't confident the parked car is a car. This is common with the free [COCO-trained](https://cocodataset.org/#explore) object detection models on steep/top-down angles, partially occluded cars, foliage, or low-light footage. When detections fall below `min_score` for too many frames the tracker loses the object, and the next confident frame creates a brand new one.
-
-What helps:
-
-- **Improve the view** — even a small angle change that gets more of the car visible could lift scores enough to stabilize tracking.
-- **Use a more accurate model** — switching from `mobiledet` to `yolov9`, or stepping up to a larger variant like `yolov9-s` over `yolov9-t`, can help (at the cost of inference time, and still on the COCO dataset). The biggest gains usually come from fine-tuning a model on images from your own cameras so it learns your specific scene. [Frigate+](https://frigate.video/plus) is a paid option that does this - models are trained on security-camera footage and can be fine-tuned on images you submit from your own setup.
-- **Don't set `detect -> stationary -> max_frames` for `car`** — it artificially ends tracking and forces re-detection as a new object. See [Stationary Objects](../configuration/stationary_objects.md).
-- **Restrict alerts to the areas you care about** with `required_zones` — see [Zones](../configuration/zones.md#restricting-alerts-and-detections-to-specific-zones). Make sure those zones use the default `loitering_time: 0` unless you specifically want the review item to stay open until the car leaves.
-- **Filter impossible locations** with [object filter masks](../configuration/masks.md#object-filter-masks) if cars are being detected on rooftops, treetops, etc.
-
-See [Object Filters](../configuration/object_filters.md) for more on tuning `min_score` and `threshold` — note that raising them too high will make this exact problem worse.
