Looking to change up my blue iris install to something more free. I’m going to be recording my house, my mother’s house and my in laws house all using tailscale. I planned on using frigate, even bought a Coral TPU for the human detection and a better motion detection. (At least I think it makes it better?) But not sure if this changed, I saw that frigate and TOU doesn’t do well in a VM (proxmox for me).
So two things:
- Curious what you run/suggest
- If you run frigate on a vm with a coral, how did pass through work?
Total between all houses, I’ll have 14 cameras recording off the bat, might add a few more over the years. I also have a gpu to handle the encoding and plenty of storage. Their upload speeds are ok too and my download speeds can handle it.
Thanks!
Scrypted is under appreciated. Getting the AppleTV to do facial recognition against your photos app, and then storing clips for free in iCloud is magical.
It’s the only cloud-based camera storage solution I trust.
I was paying for 8 camera licenses for the NVR piece and can say it is too expensive for what it is. Not upset at all that I gave money to the dev, but can’t pay that much for an NVR every year. Blue Iris is still right on that line of too much for a self hosted solution when frigate is getting as good as it is, but mobile experience is smoother than anything else I’ve used, even if the UI is way too old at this point
