That is my plan also. I’m leaning towards HAOS for one VM to collect all the data in the house and another VM for the NVR.
More august members of the forum have gotten Frigate to work in a docker container, so I will try a few more times. But if I continue to struggle, a VM it is.
Life is too short to spend hours upon hours to chase down the YAML error that makes Frigate throw its hands up and nuke the config file you were trying to submit in the app setup page.
@Constantin I too have struggled ( a lot!) with setting up Frigate using the official App but I have finally succeeded and I have found Frigate to be brilliant!
The approach I used was to set up the app thus:
The host path approach means I can find where the config.yaml lives:
so when I get stuck with a config which is ruined, I can manually delete/edit etc. at that location.
I have attempted it via TN and dockge/docker compose instead of the app but I made some mistakes and I haven’t had time to try again. On a separate machine, the “docker compose” approach worked well.
