Feature request: start/stop stream switches, exposed to Home Assistant #250

Open jamogle opened 2 years ago

jamogle commented 2 years ago

I have a few cameras inside my house that I want to turn the streams off for when I'm home, not just start/stop detection, but stop them displaying at all in the frontend. I've found many camera integrations in Home Assistant don't work with the camera.turn_on or .turn_off service calls.

It would be great if Frigate could have a switch exposed to HA to stop reading from the camera stream when it's off. It would save the wifi cameras traffic while I'm home, a bit of power as they switch into a low power mode and frigate would have less streams to chew through.

Thanks for reading.

Thanks, there's already a feature request for this upstream https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate/issues/1911

Will need to have support there before it can be added here 👍
