Birdseye
Birdseye allows a heads-up view of your cameras to see what is going on around your property / space without having to watch all cameras that may have nothing happening. Birdseye allows specific modes that intelligently show and disappear based on what you care about.
Birdseye Modes#
Birdseye offers different modes to customize which cameras show under which circumstances.
- continuous: All cameras are always included
- motion: Cameras that have detected motion within the last 30 seconds are included
- objects: Cameras that have tracked an active object within the last 30 seconds are included
Custom Birdseye Icon#
A custom icon can be added to the birdseye background by providing a 180x180 image named custom.png inside of the Frigate media folder. The file must be a png with the icon as transparent, any non-transparent pixels will be white when displayed in the birdseye view.
Birdseye view override at camera level#
If you want to include a camera in Birdseye view only for specific circumstances, or just don't include it at all, the Birdseye setting can be set at the camera level.
