This article follows up on my previous discussion about setting up Frigate. For those unfamiliar, Frigate is an open-source network video recorder featuring advanced AI detection for objects like cars, people, pets, and boxes. What attracted me initially was its local AI processing and seamless integration with Home Assistant. Launched in 2019, Frigate is relatively new but has seen consistent improvements with each version. Today, I’ll be installing and exploring the new features in beta version 0.14, particularly focusing on its all-new user interface. Continue reading “Install and Review of Frigate Beta 0.14”

Install and Review of Frigate Beta 0.12
The post is a follow-up to my previous post about my installation of Frigate. In case you missed it, Frigate is an open source network video recorder that has some smart AI detection of cars, people, pets, boxes etc. All the processing of the AI detection is done locally, this and the fact that this was an open source project that integrates well with Home Assistant is what drew me to install it in the first place. The Frigate project is fairly young, having its first release in 2019. Several versions have been released since that time, with each version improving on the last. In this post, I will install and check out what is coming up in version 0.12.
Frigate NVR + Docker under Proxmox
For a few months now, I have been trialling Frigate, a popular NVR solution most commonly used as a Home Assistant add on that provides fantastic object and person detection from your camera streams. The Frigate project is based on a Docker container, so not only does it work well as a Home Assistant OS add on, but also by itself on a separate Docker host. For a few reasons (mainly the space used by the recordings) I now plan to run Frigate outside Home Assistant on a separate Proxmox PC I have running as a development machine. To do this, I will need to get Docker running on this Proxmox PC, and I plan to do this via a TurnKey Core Linux container that I will document below.
