[Support]: flickering and lagging live view

[Landonthi]

Describe the problem you are having

Good day,

I am super happy with Frigate and had it running great before the 14 beta came out, I do realize it's a beta and will have issues. I wanted to report an issue I am having with the live view screen flickering and stuttering, it happens on my Mac laptop running Sonoma 14.5 as well as on my iPhone running 17.5.1. It seems to be related to the Safari browser as I do not have the problem when I run Chrome or Firefox browsers. I have attached a screen recording of the issue, the live feeds will flicker and freeze the camera feeds. If I continue to access the live view page it will eventually crash Frigate and will need to be restarted in docker.

If you would like further info or for me to test anything to help narrow down the problem please let me know.

Thanks,
Landon

[NickM-27]

I'd suggest trying a new version than the beta3 as many bugs have already been fixed

[NickM-27]

you can always find the latest builds at https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate/pkgs/container/frigate

Thanks, just did an update to 0.14.0-bfbacee The issues is still happening with Safari and is even a bit worse.

[NickM-27]

[Landonthi]

Fantastic! Thanks for all your hard work everybody

[hawkeye217]
