* implement auto mode for single camera live view
* add transcoded live streams and stream ordering for auto mode
Cameras can now add lower quality live streams that go2rtc transcodes to H.264 on demand. `live.transcode` takes a source stream and a list of heights and bitrates, and each quality becomes a `{camera}_transcode_{height}p` stream. The config validator adds them to `live.streams` without moving any the user already placed, and drops them when transcoding is disabled or a height changes. `create_config.py` writes them into go2rtc's generated config at startup, and saving the config or deleting a camera syncs them through go2rtc's API, so no restart is needed. They use `#hardware`, so go2rtc picks a hardware encoder and falls back to the CPU when there isn't one.
The Live playback settings stream list can be reordered by drag, since its order is the auto ladder. Auto order sorts it by bitrate, measuring native streams through a new admin-only `/go2rtc/streams/{name}/bitrate` endpoint and using the configured bitrate for transcoded ones. A pure reorder wasn't saved before because RJSF, the settings form, and `update_yaml` all ignore map key order. Sections can now mark a map with `orderedMaps`, which sends the whole map with `replace_paths` so `config_set` rewrites it in order.
Transcoded streams aren't in `go2rtc.streams`, which only lists yaml streams, so the frontend treated them as not restreamed and fell back to jsmpeg. Every restream check now goes through `isRestreamedStream`.
Auto treated any stall with no bytes in the last 2 seconds as a dead camera and handed it to the error fallback, which went straight to jsmpeg. Heavy congestion can stop delivery completely, so congested viewers skipped every lower stream. Auto now declines only when stats show the camera offline, and a stall on a live camera steps down. The stream picker also has a Try highest quality button that sends auto back to the top stream.
* fixes
* Notice and status bar improvements
Status bar problems added in the same pass got the same `Date.now()` id and overwrote each other, so usually only one showed. Messages now fall back to their text as the id. The desktop status bar shows the most severe message with a count of the rest that opens a popover listing all of them, and the mobile drawer stacks them vertically instead of placing them side by side.
Dismissing a notice hid it for good, so a detector that restarted again after a dismissal was never shown. Dismiss is replaced by acknowledge, which hides a notice until it happens again, and mute, which hides it permanently. Kinds that never repeat (config and stream checks, the update notice) can only be muted. `reopen_at_count` is removed since acknowledge covers the failed login case.
* move camera CPU warnings to notices
High ffmpeg and detect CPU warnings sat in the status bar with no way to dismiss them. They're now `ffmpeg_high_cpu` and `detect_high_cpu` notices, raised per episode by the same tracker as skipped detections. Also stop failed login attempts held from before an acknowledgement from reopening the notice.
* fix mypy and handle missing cpu stats in notices
* Run ONNX models on a Mac's Neural Engine through lighter's plugin provider
lighter's lighter.sh/ane device places an ONNX Runtime plugin execution
provider in the container. When it is present, the ONNX session setup
registers it once and opens sessions on its Neural Engine device, the same
place CUDA, ROCm and OpenVINO are chosen, so the onnx detector (and any
model that is not pinned to the CPU) runs there with no configuration. The
hardware probe reports it as an onnx unit.
* docs: hardware decode on an Apple Silicon Mac under lighter
A community section on the video decoding page: lighter's lighter.sh/video
device, hwaccel_args -c:v h264_v4l2m2m, and why the Raspberry Pi presets
decode a single-stream camera in software. The detector docs link to it.

* fix webrtc being downgraded to mse on load
`useUserPersistence` seeds state with the default and loads asynchronously, so the first render always used `mse` instead of the saved choice, and `useWebRTCGloballyAvailable` reports `checking` until the probe settles and re-enters that state on every consumer mount, so a saved `webrtc` was rewritten to `mse` even after the probe had already passed. On Safari the MSE player then timed out and latched the jsmpeg fallback. A pending probe now counts as available, the player waits on `autoLive` until the stored preferences load, and `handleError` gates on the mode in use since the fallback flag no longer implies webrtc is untried. A rejected IndexedDB read also resolves `loaded` now, so a blocked store can't leave the player waiting forever.
* add support for configurable ICE servers in WebRTC player
* add mic error state, fix dialog overwriting saved choice and dashboard ignoring stream
* tweaks
* remove unused web test deps
Nothing runs vitest. The CI step that called `npm run test` is commented out, `web/__test__/` was deleted in https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate/pull/8983 so `setupFiles` points at a missing file, and there are no unit tests, so `npx vitest run` only picks up the Playwright specs and fails. jsdom, `@testing-library/jest-dom`, msw and fake-indexeddb were only there for vitest.
* update contributing docs
* remove unused deps
* update docusaurus to 3.10.2
* bump @types/node to 25.9.6 and ES2022
target ES2022, which already includes ES2020 and ES2021.String, so the lib list was also trimmed
* bump vite to 8.3.0 and vitest to 4.1.11
Swap `@vitejs/plugin-react-swc` for `@vitejs/plugin-react` and add `esbuild` as a devDependency, since `vite-plugin-monaco-editor` requires it and Vite 8 no longer ships it. `keepNames` moves to `build.rolldownOptions.output` because Vite 8 ignores the `esbuild` block. Rolldown's minifier now writes the preload helper's base path as a template literal instead of a double-quoted string, so the nginx `sub_filter` for `return"/BASE_PATH/"` stopped matching and lazy-loaded chunks and their CSS were requested from a literal `/BASE_PATH/` under Home Assistant ingress. The rule now matches the backtick form.
* bump apexcharts to 7.3.0 and react-apexcharts to 2.1.1
Under Vite 8, a default import from a CommonJS package resolves to its whole `module.exports` when `package.json` has `"type": "module"`, so react-apexcharts 1.4.1 handed React an object and every chart crashed. 2.x ships an ESM build. apexcharts 7 no longer sets `window.ApexCharts`, so the chart components now import it for `ApexCharts.exec`, and `ApexAxisChartSeries` is derived in `types/graph.ts` because it's no longer a global type.
* remove unused immer dep
* remove unused cython pin from tensorrt requirements
The pin was added alongside tensorrt 8.5.3 and cuda-python 11.8, which needed Cython to build, and both have since been dropped from this file. Nothing imports Cython at runtime, and `pip3 wheel` runs with build isolation, so any source build gets its own build dependencies. The pin only installed an unused Cython wheel into the TensorRT image.
* require node 20.19 for docs
* Support multi resolution exports
* Fix decoder text
* Add dropdown and ability to select export stream selection
* Fix for review comments
* Fix mypy
* Cleanup wording
* add a notice registry and System Health tab
Problems Frigate detects on its own (ffmpeg crash loops, stuck detectors, failed model downloads, recordings deleted before their retention period) only ever existed as log lines. This adds a `NoticeRegistry` in the main process backed by two tables, an `update_notice` IPC topic so producers in other processes can reach it through the dispatcher, an admin-only API and websocket topic, and a Health tab that lists them. Kinds declare their own mode, severity, and category in one place: state notices are resolved by their producer, event notices are dismissed by the user.
* treat a prerelease as behind its final release
* fix notices clearing early
* rename menu items and update docs
* don't resolve the update notice on a failed version lookup
`after` and `before` defaulted to `datetime.now()` in the function signature, so they were evaluated once at import. Requests that omitted them got a window ending at process start. They now resolve in the handler.

* harden root writes into unprivileged-owned paths
Restrict the sweep sentinel to a mount at or below /media/frigate so a
parent /media mount cannot bless a later-shadowed volume. Rebuild
/tmp/nginx root-owned each start so root's cp and tempio writes cannot
follow a symlink an unprivileged nginx planted in the previous run.

* group the manual device setup under one section
* harden against symlink attacks
/config is owned by the unprivileged runtime user after the ownership sweep, so root operations on files there could be redirected by a planted symlink.
- go2rtc HomeKit setup: replace the root yq/jq normalization and chown with an O_NOFOLLOW helper (prepare_homekit.py), so a symlink at go2rtc_homekit.yml can't redirect a root write or chown onto another file
- go2rtc binary override: ignore /config/go2rtc whenever the service runs as root, so a planted binary can't exec as root under FRIGATE_ROOT_SERVICES
- sweep sentinel: read and write it through safe-sentinel, which trusts only a root-owned regular file and never follows a symlink, so it can't be forged to skip the migration or symlinked to clobber a root file
- ownership sweep: chown with -execdir so a parent directory swapped for a symlink mid-walk can't redirect the chown out of the volume
- validate inputs: restrict DEVICE_ACL_PATHS to /dev, require nonzero numeric EXTRA_GROUPS, and reject PUID/PGID that collide with the go2rtc ids
- docs: correct the TLS key ownership note to match what actually happens
* tweak docs
* stop the ownership sweep chasing entries other mechanisms own
* keep custom binaries out of root services only under granular root
