    I’ve been looking at something for my cameras. I got Zoneminder running but configuring its behaviour was a nightmare.

    All I want is to keep a limited rotating backup of a few cameras. Would Shinobi do that?

      Shinobi or frigate are fine for that.

      Frigate markets itself as “AI detection” but it isn’t required.

      Also frigate is open source and.ahinobi is closed source.

      Shinobi would absolutely do that if that’s all you want it to do. It’s definitely not a one-click setup either, though, unfortunately.

      Go with Frigate. It’s a far more mature and stable project. Shinobi is popsicle sticks around ffmpeg.

        Oh damn, that looks especially rad! I do run Home Assistant and pipe everything through a selfhosted MQTT server, so there are a ton of use cases I can think of for video detections being piped through MQTT for me. Ty!
