I’m currently using Shinobi CCTV for my 4 cameras, but the UI is just a bit clunky and the Docker image isn’t actively updated

Frigate looks like a good potential replacement, but I don’t currently have a Coral TPU so I won’t be able to use object detection (too much of a CPU hit spikes the electricity bill)

Is anyone using it for just normal 24/7 recording without object detection?

If so, what’s it like? Docs say it records 1 minute segments which is fine for me

Oh man where were you 6 hours ago hahaha

I was having a mare with the recording - I had it set to 0 days which I assumed meant “just fill the storage” but that’s completely wrong

Seems to be working great so far, gonna trial it for a week then decom my Shinobi

6 hours ago I was sleeping :D

It will ‘smartly’ delete footage if it fills storage, so if that is what your are looking you can test 9999 days and it should just delete oldest. However, I do not recommend filing storage device up to 100%. It is longevity thing.
