I've got a couple esp32cams and am hoping to use them as really basic security cameras.
After giving up on motioneye (as here), I've been trying to get Frigate up and running.

It's installed and connected to a camera, but I'm really stuggling with configuring anything else using it's yml.

Once a person's detected, it's taking a few still images OK, with a timestamp added.
Recording a video has me baffled though.

I currently get a video with no timestamp, of a period thats after the persons detected and left the frame. Close but completely useless.

Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong please?

Also, the video thats recorded doesn't show within the event in Frigate, instead it shows The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported..
The video file has been stored and can be played with VLC OK.

I'm having trouble exporting too, it never seems to find anything to export even though there's an event and saved picture/video within the time period I tried to export.
