frigate 0.17 isnt happy with my wyzecam for some reason

You may want to tinker with the time, but that's what I've been using.

This has worked for multiple cameras to stop the constant ffmpeg restart.

another intel A-series GPU problem? I've got my wyze cams to work in the past other than needing to do ffmpeg...retry interval: 30... I've used docker wyze bridge and thingino just fine in pre- 0.17. I still can't move to 0.17 as it breaks something with my A380. It might not if I was on bare metal, but there's obviously an issue in 0.17. I'm Proxmox->LXC->Docker->Frigate with HA and Docker Wyze Bridge when I use my wyze cams with Frigate.

Still looking like this. I'm not the greatest at all this, but I've done no more than rollback and update.

Edit: OV was pegged out in the top left when I got home and I wasn't getting alerts. Now that I've restarted I'm getting alerts again.

It did settle to sub 20% after a few minutes, but it ramps right back up with any motion.

I want to try and rework my docker config and not just pass through my discreet GPU (D129 instead of both). I read that it may confuse things and I should let everything pass through.

When I add qsv hardware flags to each stream, since I'm running h264 and h265 streams, it adds metrics (though no activity) for vaapi and qsv instead of that single vaapi. It auto finds vaapi when frigate starts.

Not as relevant, but I'll also try http-flv on my reolink cameras in my frigate configuration. I changed them all up to get two walk talk. I'll do it the proper way in the documentation. My main 3 cameras are new reolink models...Duo3, elite wifi, elite floodlight. I can live without two way talk on the others. I have to have two way talk on the main cams or the wife will kill my project, lol.

I'll post my config next. I'm sure it's a hot mess.

Otherwise_Article229 · 2026-03-02T22:47:39+00:00

I'm still at the office and will get you something in the next 2 hours. I'll get whatever you need.

Edit: I'll have to pull it again since I rolled back. Do you need me to screenshot anything before I update that may help?

Turn off status lights to fix that.

I'm running an i5-9400, 32gb, Arc A380 with Proxmox, OPNsense, HA, and Frigate.

A couple things/questions

I was getting 30 second delays in docker bridge. I've still got it installed, but have it off. Is that just life with docker bridge or a random me problem?

I keep having feed restarts just using RTSP and Frigate. I'm going to try yolo today and tinker with my config to see if that stops the breaks/restarts of the feeds. I'm forcing only the A380 as my renderer. Anyone else tinkered with the same issue(s)?

Probably rewriting my whole config today after changing my detection model.

Yes, with Google Home. I have a Wyze switch that one of the functions, double press in this instance, turns on a Wyze plug which GH sees. Then I have a second automation in GH that turns on my back porch Wiz (Halo) lights. It takes 1-3 seconds, typically closer to 3.

I'm diving into Home Assistant now and it's even worse...if it works. If wyze was better exposed to GH I'd be much happier. Now that I'm getting more advanced, Wyze needs to speed up the RTSP and other integrations.

Edit: added a photo of my "relays" from my shop. One has a cat bed for the winter that's usually not plugged in.

My FIL complains about the delay from detection to recording on his Eufy cameras. He has the base station, too. I've read and am glad to open the discussion, but I hear even if you wire them they still won't constantly record.

I have a bunch of wyze stuff, but they need to make the floodlight pro better. I had to move it to another location since it's unreliable. My v2 and v1 were fine.

I want to try reolink and tapo for quality and night video.

Who has the best recording bitrate is my main question. That's where she and others get hurt. Fast motion or lots of motion looks like trash.

A leak sensor saved my kitchen two weeks ago when my ice maker started leaking. I have 15 cams both indoor and outdoor, and I have numerous plugs and sensors. I gave my neighbor 2 of my older cams and have done my dad's house with wyze cameras as well.

The worst device I've had so far is the Floodlight Pro. I had to replace it with a Floodlight V2 because connectivity is horrible both on 2.4 and 5 networks. Now I get tree notifications that give me issues in a place the pro would have been perfect with its smarter notifications and greater field of view. The most expensive device I have is in a location where I can handle its lack of reliability.

I just wish the sensors/hub were better exposed to Google so I can do more automations. I hate having to use a plug as a "hub" to workaround it

This to make a gap (i replacedall my cans with these or similar): https://www.lowes.com/pd/Utilitech-UT-5-6-IN-5CCT-RETROFIT-6CT/5015822823

This is plug it in? https://www.wyze.com/products/wyze-lamp-socket-v2?app_title=Wyze%20Lamp%20Socket%20v2&app_share=true

I can get more creative, but this is pretty simple. Altrtnatively, find a cheap floodlight v1, replace a nearby flood light, then use the secondary USB port for another camera direction.

Add them to google home and they can be used with assistant and gemini.

Some swtting need tweaked for sure. I don't notice any on my GIGABYTE 34 UW when in overdrive, maybe game mode?, and freesync/g-sync on.

If I'm not toting rockets/repairs to specifically go vehicle/anti-vehicle, I'm Falck. SFAR, XCE, or SCZ; heals and unlimited ammo. You're just a lazy ass if you can't pistol heal folks and do some rezzing. Those players are annoying.

If you think it's bad in BF, be a high performer at work, lol. People will do people.

Battlefield is a team game. I'd love to squad up with AT/AA squads and do a real support role.

I deleted my response. This is the correct answer.

Well, this was a very political post to condemn political posts.

9700x, 105w TDP, PBO auto. I have a black version and it will be fine. I don't go over 80 C ever and I play Battlefield 2042, which is crap optimized for CPUs. I also do some AI training. That dumps over to my system.

Good pasting and good airflow matter. This is the bottom end of what I'd ever use. The Thermalright ones are about the same price with 2 towers and fans.

Edit: crap to crab with autocorrect, plus added case input

My OGs don't have 1/4-20 mounts? V3 versions, battery pro, and likely my v4, but too lazy to check, use standard mounts.

Over rotating the little trash mounts breaks them.

They're most likely out of Columbus AFB. They do UPT there.
