[Config Support]: Events without snapshots

Open luzik opened this issue 1 year ago • 7 comments

Describe the problem you are having

I have cameras that I want be notified about object detection motion and audio events (using HA), but without saving any image nor recordings on drive. I don't know how to achieve this with current configuration options.

With configuration below I can be notified about motion - and turn lights on, but can't detect objects. Now I want to be also notified about dog barks audio events, but those snapshots make my wife privacy concerns. I do not care about events in frigate UI.

Version

0.13.1

Frigate config file

audio:
  enabled: true
cameras:
  tablet:
    ffmpeg:
      inputs:
        - path: rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/tablet
          input_args: preset-rtsp-restream
          roles:
            - detect
            - audio
    objects:
      track: []
    record:
      enabled: False
####default config

just set the objects and audio labels that you want to detect, if record and snapshots are disabled there will be no events saved

Audio labels set is by default, snapshots are default false, and with configuration above, I've got Bark and Speech events with snapshot picture related to event. I will add global

snapshots:
  enabled: False

And see if something will change

what are you wanting to change, exactly?

NickM-27 avatar Feb 09 '24 12:02 NickM-27

I don't want to store any picture from my camera. Never Ever. Just stream and notify about motion, object, sound object detection

luzik avatar Feb 09 '24 12:02 luzik

Global

snapshots:
  enabled: False

did not help. I've got audio Bark event with camera snapshot

luzik avatar Feb 09 '24 12:02 luzik

there is no way currently to not create events when audio is detected

NickM-27 avatar Feb 09 '24 12:02 NickM-27

This is fine, the same is with normal object detection. I believe that event's have to have associated snapshot with them, and those pictures are accessible via HA frigate media folder. While this is ok for videos I don't want to have any snapshots there or anywhere in Frigate UI

snapshot enabled: false, should disable stapshots in events too
