Frigate 0.14 is a Game-Changer

Frigate is a great NVR that works closely with Home Assistant, up to now it's had a slightly clunky UI that evolved over time, with the imminent release of 0.14 the Frigate team re-written the UI and it's a game-changer.

Since making this video there has been another beta release, two release candidates and the final 0.14.0 release is now available. In the RC1 release one of my main gripes was fixed, you now have the "Play Alert Videos" option in settings, disabling that turns the GIF style film strip into static images, just as useful but a lot less distracting 👍

Frigate really needs to work on a more user-friendly way of adding cameras like scrypted. Ip, username, password. Boom, camera discovery and added with all the proper sizing, codecs, etc.

Thanks very much for a great review video of the new UI. I've been a Frigate user for a while now, and haven't done an update recently. Wasn't broke, didn't need to go fix it :-) But this new UI is just amazing and certainly a reason to go update. It all looks so nice; should be easier for other family members to use.

One funny thing to me is that I really want to try out the new mask/zone UI setup. As you said, the old configuration was functional but this new upgrade looks to be a big improvement in usability. I often need to update masks and such in the spring when my wife puts up hanging baskets and other decorate stuff that swings around in the breeze. This new capability will lower the barrier to going in to tweak those.

Subscribed to your channel after being directed here for this Frigate video, nicely done!

Hey Rod, thanks for this excellent review! What cameras do you use?

[peteradshead]

I love the zoom in on camera playback, before what was the point of a super hi res 4 or 8k camera when you had to watch it full screen .

Great to see video on 0.14. Were there many breaking/manual changes/going from 0.13?

[sevyn]

It seems they removed the option to export a timelapse. I cant find how to do it anymore. Kinda sad because i used that a lot.

I'm really struggling with getting frigate to run, what do i need to change in the yaml? I'm using RTSP streams for the cameras and a usb coral. I've been reading through the documentation and just getting overwhelmed, cant seem to find the info I'm needing. any help pointing me in the right direction would be very much appreciated

Great video! I was thinking if I should install Frigate again. This convinced me :)

[Darkened_Sol]

Hi Rod, how do you have so much storage? Have you got a NAS for the storage and you allocate each camera 3TB? What cameras do you recommend? I saw someone mention Annke C500 3k camera and I'm thinking about getting a few to experiment with.

What the fox?? This is a great vid thanks a lot - running since the first 0.14. betas but I havent figured all that stuff lol so big thanks. Those foxes are crazy...where is that?? Wired.

I don't usually comment on videos but you seem to be ahead 6 to 12 months on things I want to implement myself. I liked your modbus video a lot and this one is super usefull too! Can you share some details on the cameras you use in frigate? Brand and model number if possible. Thanks!

[louisviciedo]

great update, did you figure out the birdseye url?

[JbVest]

I'm trying to switch to the beta version but in the errors I get something wrong with my MQTT port I cannot get the add-on to open at all logs tell me something about the port but it's seeing the go2rtc seems to be loading that but that's it. Anybody have any idea how to get this fixed

[trevsweb]

Glad frigate is moving ahead. It craps over scrypted as it's self hosted and doesn't charge.
I've had random issues detecting my coral now just stopped working so I'm hoping that gets fixed.

Is there a tutorial to install the rc1 on proxmox?

[ianmyers]

What type of operating system is suggested to run this release? Ubuntu?

[SparketDog]

Isecond the disturbance by the filmstrip - I hope this can be disabled in a way

[alexspires]

Frigate doesn't have iPhone App, so useless to me, still leave Blueiris installed and working...

Hey Rod, Thanks for making this video. Nice update for Frigate. Can you tell me wat the specification is of your pc where you are running Frigate on? I want to build a pc for my installation and i can use some inspiration. Thanks in advance.
