0.8.0 2021-01-27

Breaking

  • The web_port is no longer configurable and is fixed at 5000
  • For RTMP support, port 1935 needs to be made available
  • All previous automations built around frigate/<camera>/events/start|end will need to be replaced
  • The clips_dir is now at /media/frigate/clips and the cache_dir now at /tmp/cache. These are no longer configurable.
  • /debug/stats is now /api/stats
  • If you are specifying your thresholds for person detection, 0.85 will now be WAY too high. Update them to 0.7 or remove from your config and use the default. The new model doesn’t score detections as high, but has a much lower false positive rate.
  • The previous mask value is now under the motion config section
  • Masks are now configured like zones and image masks are no longer supported
  • Fallback to CPU if the EdgeTPU is not detected has been disabled. It will now keep trying to detect your EdgeTPU.

Note

This release is a monster. If upgrading from 0.7.x, I recommend starting with a fresh config file. There are several breaking changes to the config. See updated docs linked in the readme.
