[Support]: Frigate Notification Snapshot

Describe the problem you are having

How do I use the snapshot from the “best image” in the events tab? The notifications are detection frame snapshots. I am only using one stream per camera as it’s a blue iris stream I am pulling 1280x720 streams. The best image snapshots are of a much higher quality, have a bounding box and are not zoomed in.

I tried modifying the blueprint with bbox=1 and it didn’t work.

I was talking about the yaml for the automation created from the blueprint. You can see it if you go into automations in the config section, select your automation, select “Show Trace” > “Automation config”. You will need to copy that out into your own custom automation and change all of the thumbnail.jpg references to snapshot.jpg references. You can also remove the ?format=android parameter.

Sounds good I figured that was what I had to do.
