Did birdseye change? It shows cameras is a grid now.

[thinkloop]

I reinstalled frigate and it seems birdseye has changed? Previously it would show a black screen and alternate between active cameras. Now I see a constant feed from all cameras in a grid, similar to the "cameras" view. Is there something wrong on my end or do others see this?

Make sure you have the mode set correctly (between motion, objects, continuous)

There's new features but the birdseye behavior itself was not changed

My birdseye config seems ok:

birdseye:
   enabled: True
   width: 1920
   height: 1080
   quality: 3
   mode: objects

But I did do the whole nvidia runtime thing and enable audio, so I have this in config.yml:

ffmpeg:
  hwaccel_args: []
  input_args:
    - -c:v
    - h264_cuvid
  output_args:
    # enable audio
    record: -f segment -segment_time 10 -segment_format mp4 -reset_timestamps 1 -strftime 1 -c:v copy -c:a aac

And my docker-compose.yml looks like:

  frigate:
    container_name: frigate
    privileged: true # this may not be necessary for all setups
    restart: unless-stopped
    image: blakeblackshear/frigate:stable-amd64nvidia
    runtime: nvidia
    shm_size: "128mb" # update for your cameras based on calculation above
    volumes:
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - /mnt/beast/frigate/config.yml:/config/config.yml:ro
      - /mnt/beast/frigate/data:/media/frigate
      - /home/nas/frigate/db:/db
    ports:
      - "5000:5000"
      - "1935:1935" # RTMP feeds
    environment:
      - FRIGATE_RTSP_PASSWORD=xxxx
      - NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all
      - NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES=compute,utility,video

Anything look suspect?

In 0.11 there is no nvidia build as everything is all put in the same build.

Can I simply do runtime: nvidia, and update the input_args using the 0.11 build to have nvidia work?:

ffmpeg:

  # nvidia-based acceleration    
  input_args:
     - -c:v
     - h264_cuvid
     
  # enable audio
  output_args:
     record: -f segment -segment_time 10 -segment_format mp4 -reset_timestamps 1 -strftime 1 -c:v copy -c:a aac

These are the instructions for 0.11 with nvidia https://deploy-preview-2829--frigate-docs.netlify.app/configuration/hardware_acceleration#nvidia-gpu

[thinkloop]

That's the page I followed, at the bottom it has a separate link to the nvidia instructions which says to use stable-amd64nvidia:

The link didn't paste correctly, this is the one that should be used for the beta https://deploy-preview-2829--frigate-docs.netlify.app/configuration/hardware_acceleration#nvidia-gpu

[thinkloop]

Thank you, I will try that out!

The issue was that I started running the 0.11 beta then switched to the stable-amd64nvidia build which is based off of the incompatible 0.10 build. To run nvidia from the 0.11 build these instructions need to be followed instead: https://deploy-preview-2829--frigate-docs.netlify.app/configuration/hardware_acceleration#nvidia-gpu
