- Add support for Frigate reviews / detections.
- Add support for GenAI metadata.
- Significant internal refactor to more flexible "UnifiedQuery" to allow
mixing cameras with simple metadata and review metadata (e.g. a timeline
view of a Frigate camera with reviews, and a Reolink camera with simple
metadata).
- Add support for folder media as camera media.
There are a few more PRs to commit prior to this going live, but
commiting this for now due to the scale of the change.
BREAKING CHANGE: `media_type` and `events_type` are retired under
`live`, `viewer` and `timeline` configuration sections, instead media
type is associated (once) with the camera under `media`.
- For Frigate cameras, you must be running at least [integration
v5.12.0](https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate-hass-integration/releases/tag/v5.12.0).
- Closes: #2191
Includes a significant refactor of cameras, and the introduction of a
`2-way-audio` capability that is dynamically fetched from `go2rtc`. One
gotcha is if you previously had a substream with 2-way audio, you may
need to modify
```yaml
- camera_entity: camera.foo
capabilities:
disable_except:
- substream
```
... to ...
```yaml
- camera_entity: camera.foo
capabilities:
disable_except:
- substream
- 2-way-audio
```
- Closes: #2032, #1899
- May or may not help with #2254
- Caution: I do not have an NVR-based Reolink camera to test. If
suddenly Reolink cameras don't work in the card, or in particular if
media doesn't correctly load, this is likely the culprit PR.
Whilst the Frigate support in this card is the best among camera
engines, the name incorrectly suggests that Frigate is a requirement.
Instead, to broaden the appeal, change to more camera agnostic name.
This does not suggest any change in priority, role or support for
Frigate.
This change is likely to be bug prone, due to the size of the rename --
the code contains 1500+ references to "Frigate" most of which make sense
to rename, some which do not, all of which needed human assessment.
- Closes#1298
BREAKING CHANGE: References to `frigate-card` in all kinds of
configuration need to be updated to `advanced-camera-card`. An automated
config upgrade should take care of the majority of usecases (click `Edit
-> Upgrade -> Save`), though may not be perfect.
