As a video professional, with many devices for recording video both at baseband and via ip, and responsible for delivering audio and video streams via networks to tens of millions of people, I had no idea what “NVR” meant.
I don’t believe video professional equates to security professional. Would not expect someone who is a video professional to know NVR but at the same time if you don’t know what an NVR is I would not expect someone to be using this software. The entry point into this space is an NVR.
Niche term yes but if you don’t know what an NVR is you probably don’t want to go down the road of Frigate. It is a lot more common than you might think these are traditionally deployed in most small biz.
Sorry you took offense. I believe in a thread about initialism that some forms are expected based on the nature of the content. And specifically in this case, I am not sure what a video professional has to do with someone who works in security. So no I don’t need to stop and to be frank if you don’t know what a NVR is Frigate is most likely not a great solution but it also might be and you will learn a lot!
