is go2RTC bundled with Frigate? The frigate document says it is bundled. So I am assuming it is do I still need have that as an add-on or is it just part of frigate?

it is entirely built into frigate, in most cases there is no need to have go2rtc installed separately

#

Do I need to configure go2rtc to use cameras with audio in HA?

For live view, yes

Yes

Assuming it is enabled

using the camera Amcrest internal web I have audio. I'm really not sure what I'm doing. I'm just trying everything I can find on the website across everywhere and seeing if anything works below as my current frigate YAML. The picture seems like it's good when a recording is detected from motion the green icon on the top left of the recording shows a person and also the audio symbol. So I'm guessing it detected there was audio, but who knows where it went or how we get it back. What am I doing wrong? I also enabled the ports in the configuration and went to the go2rtc web on port 1984 and I did not detect audio there either

No audio - Frigate

The only thing I saw in the doc was this but that didnt help. Any other ideas? Wonder if someone could send me the frigate yaml that they have running HA

  output_args:
    record: preset-record-generic-audio-aac```

That's all that is required for audio from frigate

#

If you have no audio in new recordings then that's most likely because audio isn't enabled in the cameras settings

OK, what I did is installed go2RTC as a standalone. I stopped frigate from running and started go2rtc by itself. I then went to the web on Port 1984 and the camera looked good and has full audio. Works great

I then copied the streams configuration and pasted it into the frigate yaml. I shut off the standalone go2RTC. I started frigate and went to the same web on Port 1984. The picture looks good, but there's no audio.

I'm sure somebody else must be doing the same thing. I'm not sure if it's a bug or I have some weird configuration or what. It should've worked whether it was running standalone or as part of the bundle with frigate. Maybe I need to report this or something. I am completely lost about what to try now.

I answered on the report, but the reason the behavior is different is because frigate sets specific preferences on go2rtc so it behaves the way frigate needs

#

a small config change will make this work as expected
