frigate: Presence Detection not working relibly
Describe the problem you are having
I am trying to utilise the new presence detection to determine if my little one is in his cot. Frigate consistently identifies him with a score of between 75 and 80%. The bounding box appears to consistently report him, however in the home assistant device the detected object seems to vary between 0 and 1 inconsistently, with no apparent reason.
Im new to Frigate, so may be missing something!

Try reducing the time in the history area to see how quickly those drops are going off for. I’d be guessing it is something along the lines of what @NickM-27 has previously mentioned where it is somewhat of an instant off then back on because Frigate has momentarily stopped detecting the motion and sent it through to HA, but not enough for the event to stop within Frigate itself.
I am actually having connection problems with one of them, but not the one in question. The one with connection issues works fine. The events start and end at the appropriate times but it seems like if I spend an extended period of time in the garage the sensor hangs even though Frigate reports no people.
I’m having a similar issue where once a person is detected, binary_sensor_person_motion_detection stays on and debug shows no boundary box for a detected person once they’ve left the FOV. I’m not using zones or anything besides dog, cat and person motion detection. This is only happening on one of my Reolink E1 Zoom cameras.
I don’t, no, I was purely using for presence detection.
