# visionLabs Frigate setup
This project now assumes Frigate is the backend that owns camera auth, camera discovery, and stream handling.
## Starter inventory
The first four cameras are currently modeled as:
- `cam195` -> `192.168.0.195`
- `cam196` -> `192.168.0.196`
- `cam201` -> `192.168.0.201`
- `cam228` -> `192.168.0.228`
All four are ONVIF-capable and should be added to Frigate using matching camera IDs where possible.
## Important rule
Do not commit raw camera passwords to this repo.
Keep camera credentials inside:
- Frigate config
- go2rtc config
- a local secret file outside version control
## What to update next
1. Set the real Frigate base URL in `config/cameras.json`
2. Confirm the Frigate camera IDs match `cam195`, `cam196`, `cam201`, and `cam228`
3. Decide which Frigate live endpoint format the Roku app should consume first
4. Add snapshot and live tile loading in the SceneGraph UI
## Why this shape works
- Roku does not want to manage ONVIF directly
- Roku is happier when Frigate handles the camera-side protocol mess
- This keeps the app focused on layout, browsing, and playback
