Are you using this with Home Assistant? (Edit: my ISP is blocking, this is not an issue with hacs... I'm trying to integrate this, but the HACS integration does not seem to work with my HA because the get.hacs.xyz server is misconfigured. wget -O - https://get.hacs.xyz | bash - Connecting to get.hacs.xyz ([2606:4700:20::ac43:4465]:443) 28EBD0AA71710000:error:0A0000C6:SSL routines:tls_get_more_records:packet length too long:ssl/record/methods/tls_common.c:662: 28EBD0AA71710000:error:0A000139:SSL routines::record layer failure:ssl/record/.rec_layer_s3.c:687: ssl_client: SSL_connect wget: error getting response: Connection reset by peer)

You don't need HACS, just download frigate integration to config/custom_components in your HA folder

  Great, hacs seemed overly complicated. Appreciate the note!

No, I don't run it with Home Assistant. I just run it as a standalone service.

My frigate runs in a separate container and is configured to send MQTT messages to Homeassistant. Frigate can also expose snapshots which Homeassistant displays: http://myfrigate.lan:1984/api/frame.jpeg?src=CAMERA_GARAGE http://myfrigate.lan:1984/api/frame.jpeg?src=CAMERA_GARAGE

  Do you know of any good Soup-To-Nuts tutorial "for dummies" on such a setup? Finally getting some secure home monitoring/automation has bubbled up as a priority and I've started looking at Home Assistant but even for someone with some technical background the learning curve combined with the sheer breadth of options is overwhelming.

    Try following this: https://chatgpt.com/share/6893f888-8a70-800c-ad8a-0987257b9335 https://chatgpt.com/share/6893f888-8a70-800c-ad8a-0987257b93... In frigate, add this to the top of your configuration file: mqtt: enabled: true host: IP_ADDRESS_OF_YOUR_HOMEASSISTANT port: 1883 topic_prefix: frigate user: USERNAME_YOU_CREATED_FOR_MQTT password: PASSOWRD_YOU_CREATED_FOR_MQTT Frigate will start sending various messages to Homeassistant. Go to HA, go to MQTT settings and listen to a topic frigate/# Observe the messages, pick the one which suits your needs. Follow this for an example: https://chatgpt.com/share/6893fd1c-2940-800c-a358-a840029e6e62 https://chatgpt.com/share/6893fd1c-2940-800c-a358-a840029e6e... You dont really need to add the HA automation via yaml, you can click it through manually.
