NVR with realtime local object detection for IP cameras
aicameragoogle-coralhome-assistanthome-automationhomeautomationmqttnvrobject-detectionrealtimertsptensorflow
When a browser lacks native HEVC/H.265 support, the frontend now
requests a server-side transcoded HLS stream instead of the original
VOD path. FFmpeg consumes Frigate's existing HLS endpoint and outputs
H.264 MPEG-TS segments to /tmp/stream/transcode/, which nginx already
serves via the /stream/ location.
- New API endpoint: GET /api/transcode/{camera}/start/{ts}/end/{ts}
- Spawns FFmpeg to transcode existing H.265 HLS to H.264 HLS
- Deduplicates sessions by camera + time range
- Limits concurrent transcodes (default 3)
- Waits for first segment before returning playlist URL
- Cleanup: stale transcode sessions removed every 60s (10min TTL)
- Frontend: isHevcSupported() detects browser codec support via MSE
and native video element, transparently falls back to transcoded
playback in DynamicVideoPlayer and TrackingDetails
- Zero changes to existing HLS/VOD path or clip download endpoint

Frigate NVR™ - Realtime Object Detection for IP Cameras
English
A complete and local NVR designed for Home Assistant with AI object detection. Uses OpenCV and Tensorflow to perform realtime object detection locally for IP cameras.
Use of a GPU or AI accelerator is highly recommended. AI accelerators will outperform even the best CPUs with very little overhead. See Frigate's supported object detectors.
- Tight integration with Home Assistant via a custom component
- Designed to minimize resource use and maximize performance by only looking for objects when and where it is necessary
- Leverages multiprocessing heavily with an emphasis on realtime over processing every frame
- Uses a very low overhead motion detection to determine where to run object detection
- Object detection with TensorFlow runs in separate processes for maximum FPS
- Communicates over MQTT for easy integration into other systems
- Records video with retention settings based on detected objects
- 24/7 recording
- Re-streaming via RTSP to reduce the number of connections to your camera
- WebRTC & MSE support for low-latency live view
