Frigate NVR Creator Interview - Blake Blackshear
In this episode I speak with Blake Blackshear, the author of Frigate, a local NVR designed for Home Assistant with AI object detection. It uses artificial intelligence to perform real-time object detection locally for IP cameras.
Frigate has been one of my favorite open-source projects since it’s completely local, always introducing new features from user feedback, and has a huge community for support. I’ve been running Frigate in my house for over 2 years to provide alerts and record footage from all my security cameras. It’s deep integration with HomeAssistant for triggering automations and sending alerts when objects such as people are detected has been vital to it’s adoption rate with home automation enthusiasts.
With version 13 of Frigate currently in beta, I thought this would be a great time to talk with Blake to get a behind the scenes look of Frigate’s history and where it’s going in the future. Version 13’s most anticipated feature is the introduction of custom models through the Frigate+ service. While Frigate itself is open-source and free, Frigate+ is a paid service that allows you to train custom object detection models for your security cameras.

Automating a Garage Door Deadbolt & Remote w/ Home Assistant
มุมมอง 8K11 หลายเดือนก่อน
In this video I demo automating a garage door deadbolt based on the location of the individuals in my home. I also demo an automation that disables my garage door remote when I'm not in the immediate vicinity of my house. These solutions are built using HomeAssistamt, a ratgdo shield, a phone, and a relay. I had known about garage door deadbolts, but was only aware of manual versions that you u...
Locally Hosted Smart Security+ 2.0 Garage Door w/ the ratgdo Project
มุมมอง 20Kปีที่แล้ว
After 15 years, my garage door motor died, and when the new one was installed my existing Go Control relay system didn’t work any longer. This is a problem many others have experienced when upgrading their garage doors. The reason for this is that modern garage doors lock down their systems with something called Security 2.0. This stops conventional relays systems from working and therefore rel...

T-Mobile 5G Home Internet Review & Speed Tests
มุมมอง 6Kปีที่แล้ว
I was looking for the perfect backup Internet service with no data limits and reasonable price for my home network. My main internet connection is from Comcast (2000/200) and the second best Internet service is from AT&T maxing out at 25Mbps/5 which is just plain sad. With T-Mobile 5G coming in at basically the same price, I figured it was a no brainer to give it a try and see if it was the sec...
LG C2 OLED 42in Monitor Review: Gaming & Daily Office Work

I’ve been shopping around for a new monitor for a while, but nothing stood out as a big enough upgrade for me to make the move. I currently have (4) 32in 4k IPS monitors (mix of LG 32UD99-W & ViewSonic VP3268-4K). I wanted a full 4k display that’s 16:9, no ultra-widescreens were considered.

My Comcast 2Gbps Internet Upgrade
มุมมอง 30Kปีที่แล้ว
On my most recent visit to the Comcast website, I noticed I was eligible to upgrade to the "Gigabit X2" service tier! This service, which is provided over the existing copper wire infrastructure maxes out at 2Gbps download and 100Mbps for uploads. I made this video to share my journey through the installation process and to show off the speeds the upgrade provides.
Fully Offline Synchronized Audio Alerts & Music (Part1)

While having a single speaker playing an alert is great, the holy grail of audio alerts is having complete synchronization of the alerts across speakers.

    Great overview of your automations. Some of it is over my head at the moment because I have not delved into HomeAssistant yet. What brought me to your video was a search for using an 841LM without a GDO. I hope to use a simple 12V wifi relay to control the 841LM on a manual garage door. My question for you is… is there a minimum amount of time voltage must be applied to the lock to open/close it? And how do you determine it’s current state?

    I was able to workaround the problems mentioned in the video by getting bluetooth aux and couple of cable connectors. For Bluetooth aux i got the Anker one powered by usb. Then from the bluetooth aux connected a aux to rca cable left/right. At the end of each left right rca pin, connected a rca to aux adapter which in turn was fed to google home speakers left and right respectively. Overall it costed around 20$ for bluetooth aux and cables. I have connected these speakers Bluetooth aux to my tv. Got two of these speakers in fb market for 180$. Overall I am impressed with the sound quality for the 200$ i spent 😊..

    I'd suggest picking up an Everything Presence Lite for your person detection. Deploying Frigate's human detection is neat, but you might get more general use for detecting people in a zone this way and you free up that camera.

    I am really considering purchasing this desk. My one big concern is from the looks of things the back leaves no space to mount clamps. I noticed you may have removed the center of the last support beam to work around this issue. Is this ok to do? I saw Upline offers a arm with a clamp that supports up to 3.75" of thickness. Is that something that could cover the thickness of a 1.5" butcher top and the thickness of the beam underneath or is removing that beam really the only option?

    How do you select the security option (1+, 2, etc). I am configuring using mqtt, but no security options show during the setup/configuration. Suggestions?

    • @daviddonnelly8406
      @daviddonnelly8406 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think it has been resolved and for community information: Long story - very short. Reflashed ratgdo for mqtt. All went very well. On the ratgdo web page, at the bottom, there is a Control Protocol selection. I totally missed this (MY BAD - BIG TIME). I saw and focused on the firmware update at the top of the page. (tunnel vision) However, I selected Security +1, and then updated the firmware to V2.1. The system was updated and rebooted. However, the garage door would not respond. So - reflashed, firmware reinstall complete, selected Security +1, DID NOT update the firmware to V2.1 and ratgdo works. So, for me anyway, the firmware update is titled: ratgdo_esp8266_v2.1.bin. And the update description would seem to indicate I need to update as I am using Home Assistant. But I now believe the update label means the firmware update is for esphome….not mqtt. So, as of right now, ratgdo works as advertised.

    • @la7dfa
      @la7dfa หลายเดือนก่อน

      It could be the PC or switch that is limited to Gbit. Check the properties for your ethernet card. If it says more than one Gigabit, you should be fine. Check the switch, is it a 2.5Gbit switch or more? If so I would try to replace the ethernet cables. You can use some temporary or omit the switch.

    I got both of mine very quickly and got them working very quickly as well. Was working with Netgear on a few things and they gave me a beta firmware upgrade which reset a lot of my devices including the RATGDOs. Didn't anticipate this and wasn't able to catch the last rolling codes of either garage door. If anyone knows of a link or how I can resolve this I'd appreciate it, otherwise I'm stuck with both RATGDO devices telling me there's an obstruction and I can't use them anymore. Which kinda blows...

    We all know, and accept, that modern alarm systems have tamper-proof sensors so burglars have a harder job in trying to disable the alarm system and enter my building. We also buy expensive cylinder locks that are tamper proof and pay extra money for those locks to have a certain "security" logo on it. Yet, Paul finds it strange that the simple 2-wire button on wired garage door remotes is replaced by a more secure one. Opening the garage door using a 2-wire switch seems a next level of allowing burglars to enter my house 😲
