Motioneye used with AI tool and deepstack

[Yonny24]

Just to mention I have managed to set up motioneye (docker container on windows). to place all the snapshots triggered by motion into a local folder for deepstack to pick up and monitor.
I use the AI tool (vorloncd) for advanced settings.

I have blue iris installed but was curious if motioneye could be configured this way (for friends as it is free).

Thought that was a nice find for others here to try.

I would not recommend those setups with an add-on to be honest.

[Yonny24]

It's not the add-on.
Running on its own in docker desktop. No link to homeassistant and on a different pc.

But this repository is the add-on... if you are not talking about the add-on then you are in the wrong place.

[Yonny24]

Used the addon before - couldn't you use the upload function to another drive and the AI tool do the hard work to avoid false alerts?

[frenck]

I would not use motionEye for those cases, BlueIris or Frigate are way better options if one has those needs.

[Yonny24]

ok fair enough. I use Blue Iris. Was toying with Motioneye. Could not get to grips with Frigate - a very painful experience.
