Blake BlackshearandClaude Opus 5.5 ac0f39268c Resolve go2rtc stream placeholders the same way everywhere
The go2rtc startup script expanded stream sources with str.format(),
which also supports attribute and index access, while the config API
check used substitute_frigate_vars and fell back to the raw string when a
placeholder could not be resolved. A placeholder the API check could not
resolve could therefore expand into a restricted source at startup.

The startup script now uses substitute_frigate_vars, like the rest of the
config, and the API check rejects a stream source whose placeholders
cannot be resolved. The startup script's own copy of the FRIGATE_* env
var map is removed; the shared one also honors CREDENTIALS_DIRECTORY.

Frigate NVR™ - Realtime Object Detection for IP Cameras

License: MIT

Translation status

[English] | 简体中文

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
