> Motion detection uses the usual implementation from OpenCV. Unfortunately this algorithm is not very good in my experience.

In frigate 0.13 (currently in beta) the motion detection has been fully rewritten, which has been a large improvement in my and other's experience. We also have docs now that walk users through tuning the motion detectoin.

This is along with many other changes along what you are describing like object tracking and improvements to initial object detection when motion is first detected.

A better UI for recordings viewing and seeing times of activity are coming in the future.

Frigate already supports customizing recording retention per camera for 24/7 and event based recordings.

You can also set different retention periods based on the type of objects that were detected.

I have found my frigate+ model to be much more accurate and crazy good even at night. Will be curious how things change when it snows here more often, since I've not submitted any examples of winter at this house yet.
