- **Storage:** `/opt/frigate/storage/`

### Frigate Config Gotchas (v0.17)
- `record.retain` is NOT valid — use `record.continuous.days` and `record.motion.days`
- `record.events` is NOT valid — use `record.detections` and `record.alerts`
- Config errors → safe mode (cameras don't start but web UI does)

- **Samba user `octoprint`** exists on node-173 (created 2026-03-24)
- **GOTCHA:** Was originally pointed at pve197 (.197) — updated to node-173 (.173) after tank migration
## PTZ Camera Control (CGI)
Base URLs from main network (via Pi socat proxies):
- cam1: `http://192.168.0.102:18080`
- cam2: `http://192.168.0.102:28080`
All CGI commands use HTTP basic auth `admin:admin` at path `/cgi-bin/hi3510/param.cgi`.
| Command | Parameters |
|---|---|
| Move | `cmd=ptzctrl&-step=0&-act=left/right/up/down` (continuous, send stop) |
| Step | `cmd=ptzctrl&-step=1&-act=left/right/up/down` (auto-stops) |
| Stop | `cmd=ptzctrl&-step=0&-act=stop` |
| Home | `cmd=ptzctrl&-step=0&-act=home` |
| Set speed | `cmd=setptzspeed&-panspeed=N&-tiltspeed=N` (1-5) |
| Get speed | `cmd=getptzspeed` |
| Flip/mirror | `cmd=setimageattr&-flip=on/off&-mirror=on/off` |
| Get image settings | `cmd=getimageattr` |
| Get device info | `cmd=getserverinfo` |
## Current State (as of 2026-03-26)
- cam2 is flipped 180 (flip=on, mirror=on)
- cam1 is default orientation
- Both cameras at speed 2
## Conventions ## Conventions
- Camera credentials: admin/admin (default, isolated network only) - Camera credentials: admin/admin (default, isolated network only)
- Pi SSH: key-only as `seth`, no password auth - Pi SSH: key-only as `seth`, no password auth — reach via `ssh seth-pi` from steel141
- Internal password for homelab services: REDACTED_PASSWORD - Internal password for homelab services: REDACTED_PASSWORD
- Samba user for timelapse storage: octoprint/octoprint on node-173
- Pi's wlan0 IP (.102) is DHCP — may change after reboot. Check with nmap if unreachable.

## Project Summary ## Project Summary
3D printing setup and management for a Creality Ender 3 homelab. Covers two printers (Ender 3 V3 SE and Ender 3 S1 Pro), filament inventory across PLA/PETG/ABS in multiple colors, and hardened steel MK8 nozzles. The CONTEXT.md file serves as an inventory of purchased hardware and consumables. 3D printing setup with one Creality Ender 3 V3 SE, remotely managed via OctoPrint on a Raspberry Pi 3 B+. Two TENVIS IP cameras on an isolated router subnet are proxied through the Pi (socat) and fed to Frigate NVR + a custom PTZ control webapp. Timelapses stored on tank (node-173) via SMB.

### Frigate NVR setup (2026-03-24)
- Added both cameras to Frigate 0.17 on CT 241 (192.168.0.220)
- Config at `/opt/frigate/config/config.yml`, docker-compose at `/opt/frigate/docker-compose.yml`
- Added port 1984 mapping to docker-compose (go2rtc API, needed for cam-control)
- Streams: `printer_cam1`, `printer_cam2` — pulled from Pi socat RTSP proxies
- Object tracking disabled, CPU detector only
- Gotcha: Frigate 0.17 changed record config schema — no `retain.days` or `events`, use `continuous.days`/`motion.days`

- cam2 flipped 180 (flip=on, mirror=on)

### Gotchas & Lessons Learned
- Pi's go2rtc API binds to `127.0.0.1` only — not accessible remotely. Use Frigate's go2rtc instead.
- Pi's wlan0 is DHCP (192.168.0.102 last seen) — may change. Use `nmap -sn 192.168.0.0/24 | grep Raspberry` from a node to find it.
- Pi SSH is key-only as `seth` — reachable via `ssh seth-pi` from steel141, or hop through pve197.
- MJPEG streaming through Python urllib is unreliable (0 bytes returned) — use snapshot polling (frame.jpeg) instead.
- Frigate 0.17 config schema differs from older docs online — query the Python schema if unsure: `docker exec frigate python3 -c 'from frigate.config import FrigateConfig; ...'`
- OctoPrint SMB mount must point to wherever tank lives (currently node-173 at .173). If tank moves again, update Pi fstab.
- Caddy config for `octopi.sethpc.xyz` is on CT 600 (192.168.0.185) at `/etc/caddy/Caddyfile` — includes camera stream rewrites at `/cam1.mjpeg`, `/cam2.mjpeg`, `/cam1.jpg`, `/cam2.jpg`.
