  I use a reolink doorbell camera as baby monitor setup via poe and ha. Easy to setup, no app, no cloud. That's for 130€. Plus the babies learned to press the doorbell button if they need something during the night. 2yo and 8m old. Until now it last also the not so gentle press of the babies

  Does anyone have a recent guide for setting up Frigate and getting it to work with HA? The YAML setup has not been a mountain I've been able to climb. I'm running a Proxmox cluster with 2 NUCs with a USB Coral TPU, and I want to utilize a QNAP NAS for video storage. I'm using 3 of the dual-camera POE floodlight Reolink cameras, and will be adding a Reolink doorbell soon. HA runs great, I was able to get the command-line Coral TPU test to work, the NAS storage appears to be mounted in Proxmox, but I can't get Frigate to install. Even a direction to the right forum to get help would be great.

  Note that the Reolink doorbell comes in two options for resolution/aspect ratio. Black is more landscape and the white model is more portrait orientation.

  I have abandoned the Google Home ecosystem in favor of Home Assistant 6 months ago, due in part to this reason. Your post is actually reminding me I need to install my new Reolink doorbell camera today so I can toss my awful Nest doorbell cam. No subscription needed with Reolink and Home Assistant provides lots of secure, non-cloud ways to store your data beyond the SD card storage in the cam itself. Reolink also offers cloud options for convenience, but they don't force you.

  Reolink doorbell camera is what I use. Storage is on an SD card in the camera.

  I don't think we did accept that. I certainly never did. there are dozens, probably hundreds, of security cameras that record to internal SD cards and can be used completely without a subscription, and anything professional grade, and many of the cheaper options, will stream to your own NVR again without needing any subscription. Yes there are a few well-known companies out there who sell a cloud subscription and want you to use it. But you absolutely do not have to go that route. I have a combination of Dahua turret cameras and Reolink doorbell cameras all streaming to my own frigate NVR. there is no subscription fee, and I haven't even given any of them access to the internet. But really, I'm not endorsing any specific brand here, as I said there are tons of options for local cameras. though good I will admit that the options are a little more limited in the doorbell camera space, But there are still some out there, like Reolink, And realistically, that is a class of security camera that didn't even exist just a few years ago, and in many cases are properly mounted turret camera might actually be a better option anyway.

  My reolink doorbell camera works great, was a lot cheaper than the unifi one and I can still back up the data to my synology NAS.

  Question for you as I'm actually curious. I use my cameras to record the world and go back to see what happens if something happens to my property or my neighbors. Someone hits my fence, I go back and watch the footage, get the plates etc and report it. The NVR tags the cars and people on the timeline for me to go back and look at later. Are you using it as an active real-time system where if it alerts you to a person, you immediately wanna log in and see what's going on? Is it necessary to know a car drove by for you to log in and watch it drive by? I don't use the Reolink doorbell as Ring still has the fastest in notifications and load time with the wired pro versions.

  All of mine are Hikvision and Dahua. I did buy a Reolink doorbell camera, but haven't installed it yet. I did try it out by plugging it into a POE switch in my office and honestly wasn't particularly impressed with the image quality. That's probably why I haven't made it a priority to install it.

  okay awesome, thanks. the duo 2's out then. i didn't realize that it just supported h.265, so now i know to narrow my camera search down to devices that can support h.264. i reached out to Reolink to see if their new CX410 supports http-flv. i know for sure, according to the device's specs from their [website](https://reolink.com/us/product/cx410/#specifications), that it supports h.264 compression so i guess that's promising? ~~follow-up question: overall, how essential is http-flv support on a camera? i'm assuming that a camera encoding in h264 doesn't automatically mean that it supports http-flv, is that...right?~~ just checked my frigate setup where i have the reolink doorbell set up and see that it's an http:// stream so that's cool. i'll edit this comment if/when i hear from them on whether or not the CX-410 supports streaming in http.
