don't trust live stream names as existing go2rtc streams

apply_config_env_vars wrote every unprefixed environment_vars key into os.environ and exported every FRIGATE_ key, so a config could set LD_PRELOAD or LIGHTER_ANE_EP to load a library into Frigate or its children, or set FRIGATE_RUN_AS_ROOT to turn off the ffmpeg.path writable-tree guard. Only the documented names are now exported, each with a value check, and a name the container already sets is never overwritten. FRIGATE_ keys still feed substitution, but only FRIGATE_JWT_SECRET is exported. Anything else logs a warning naming the key.

+Frigate can send one anonymous usage report a day. The reports show the maintainers which hardware to support, which features people use, and how releases perform. Sharing is off until you turn it on.
+
+## Turning it on
+
+Enable **Share anonymous analytics** at <NavPath path="Settings > System > Telemetry" />, or set it in your config:
+
+```yaml
+telemetry:
+  analytics: true

+The same page has a **Preview the report** button that shows exactly what the next report contains.
+
+## How it's sent
+
+- Once a day, as a JSON POST to `https://analytics.frigate.video/report`
+- The server looks up your country and region from your IP address and never stores the address
+- Raw reports are kept for 60 days; only aggregate totals are published
+- A random install ID, stored in `/config/.analytics.json`, keeps your install from being counted twice. Turning sharing off deletes it
+
+## What's never sent
+
+- Camera, zone, group, profile, or user names
+- Object labels, face names, or license plate text
+- IP addresses, hostnames, URLs, or stream paths
+- Credentials or API keys
+- Events, recordings, or anything from them
+
+## Every field
+
+Fields marked public appear in the published totals. The machine-readable schema is [frigate-analytics-schema.json](pathname:///frigate-analytics-schema.json).

-See the community-maintained list of [ONVIF PTZ camera recommendations](cameras.md#onvif-ptz-camera-recommendations) for cameras and brands reported to work (and not work) with autotracking. This is not an exhaustive list that is frequently updated, so other cameras not listed may also work well.

-There are two possible known reasons for this (and perhaps others yet unknown): a slow PTZ motor or buggy camera firmware. Frigate uses an ONVIF parameter provided by the camera, `MoveStatus`, to determine when the PTZ's motor is moving or idle. According to some users, Hikvision PTZs (even with the latest firmware), are not updating this value after PTZ movement. Unfortunately there is no workaround to this bug in Hikvision firmware, so autotracking will not function correctly and should be disabled in your config. This may also be the case with other non-Hikvision cameras utilizing Hikvision firmware, such as some Annke models. In rare cases the vendor may provide fixed firmware on request; for example, Annke has supplied firmware that resolves this for the CZ504 (see the [camera recommendations list](cameras.md#onvif-ptz-camera-recommendations)).

 ## ONVIF PTZ camera recommendations
 
-This list of working and non-working PTZ cameras is based on user feedback. If you'd like to report specific quirks or issues with a manufacturer or camera that would be helpful for other users, open a pull request to add to this list.
+Before buying a PTZ camera, check its ONVIF support. The [ONVIF Conformant Products Database](https://www.onvif.org/conformant-products/) is the most reliable source. Look at a camera's FeatureList for `PTZRelative`, `PTZRelativePanTilt` and/or `PTZRelativeZoom`. Autotracking requires these features. If they are missing, autotracking will not work, though basic PTZ in the WebUI might. Some cameras still fail to respond even when they claim support. Avoid cameras with no database entry.
 
-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.

 Different platforms handle notifications differently, some settings changes may be required to get optimal notification delivery.
 
+### Notification TTL
+
+By default, Frigate sends notifications for an active alert with a `ttl` of `immediate`, so the push service either delivers them immediately or drops them. If your device is briefly unreachable (asleep, switching from Wi-Fi to cellular, or on a weak signal), those notifications are lost and you only receive the notification sent when the alert ends, which is always kept for up to an hour.
+
+Setting `ttl` to `reliable` tells the push service to keep retrying these notifications for up to 30 seconds. This makes delivery more reliable, but a notification delivered late will still say an object is detected, even if the object has already left.

 <a href="https://frigate.video/plus" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Frigate+</a> offers models trained on images submitted by Frigate+ users from their security cameras and is specifically designed for the way Frigate NVR analyzes video footage. These models offer higher accuracy with less resources. The images you upload are used to fine tune a base model trained from images uploaded by all Frigate+ users. This fine tuning process results in a model that is optimized for accuracy in your specific conditions.
 
-With a subscription, 12 model trainings to fine tune your model per year are included. In addition, you will have access to any base models published while your subscription is active. If you cancel your subscription, you will retain access to any trained and base models in your account. An active subscription is required to submit model requests or purchase additional trainings. New base models are published quarterly with target dates of January 15th, April 15th, July 15th, and October 15th.

+There are three model types offered in Frigate+, `yolov9`, `yolonas`, and `mobiledet` (legacy). All of these models are object detection models and are trained to detect the same set of labels [listed below](#available-label-types).
 
 Not all model types are supported by all detectors, so it's important to choose a model type to match your detector as shown in the table under [supported detector types](#supported-detector-types). You can test model types for compatibility and speed on your hardware by using the base models.
 
 | Model Type  | Description                                                                                                                                                    |

 ### 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`.
+YOLOv9 models are available in `t`, `s`, `c`, and `edgetpu` variants, and an `m` size is coming soon. 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, which requires Frigate 0.17 or later. 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`. The `c` size is larger and offers higher accuracy at the cost of slower inference, so it is best suited to more powerful hardware such as GPUs.

+| `m`       | Medium (coming soon) | ~20.0M     | Slower than `s` with higher accuracy                        | Mid-range GPUs and NPUs                            |
