Selecting another camera stream, being able to switch between better and worse quality flows

[andregoncalvespires]

Congratulations on your work, it's wonderful.

I looked in the enhancement topics and couldn't find it. So here's an idea to add a little more functionality to this incredible UI that was very well remodeled in version 0.14.

We can already define which flow should be displayed in the UI via configuration. However, I miss, both in the UI and in the HA card, the possibility of selecting another camera stream, being able to switch between better and worse quality flows.

I hope you continue this wonderful work and count on my support.

Can you elaborate, what do you mean by flow

[hawkeye217]

If by "flow" you mean "camera stream", this will be possible in Frigate 0.16.

If you mean something else, let us know.

Sorry for the confusing term used.

This is exactly about changing the camera streaming in the UI according to the possibilities configured in the yaml. In the example below, if it were possible to change the streamings fundos_area_servico, fundos_area_servico_ext or fundos_area_servico_sub in the UI.

go2rtc:
  streams:
    fundos_area_servico: #Fundos - Área de Serviço
      - ffmpeg:http://192.168.77.42/flv?port=1935&app=bcs&stream=channel0_main.bcs&user=admin&password=agp201471#video=copy#audio=copy#audio=opus
    fundos_area_servico_ext:
      - ffmpeg:http://192.168.77.42/flv?port=1935&app=bcs&stream=channel0_ext.bcs&user=admin&password=agp201471#video=copy#audio=copy#audio=opus
#    fundos_area_servico_sub:
#      - ffmpeg:http://192.168.77.42/flv?port=1935&app=bcs&stream=channel0_sub.bcs&user=admin&password=agp201471

cameras:
  fundos_area_servico:
    ffmpeg:
      inputs:
        - path: rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/fundos_area_servico
          input_args: preset-rtsp-restream
          roles:
            - record
        - path: rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/fundos_area_servico_ext
          input_args: preset-rtsp-restream
          roles:
            - detect
    live:
      stream_name: fundos_area_servico_ext

I'm testing 0.15 beta and waiting for 0.16.

Thank you

I don't totally understand what you are asking for, however, if you are talking about displaying camera/s in home assistant, you should take a look at the Frigate card, there are so many options/configurations/possibilities that your head will explode!

If you just mean in the usual Frigate UI, then it does automatically 'upgrade' to the better stream when it does detect something. If you are after a manual button, then that is another case ..
