The `ffmpeg` platform allows you to use every video or audio feed with [FFmpeg](http://www.ffmpeg.org/) for various sensors in Home Assistant. Available are: **noise**, **motion**. If the `ffmpeg` process is brocken, the sensor going to unavailable. It exists a service to restart a instance with *binary_sensor.ffmpeg_restart*.
|
|
|
|
<p class='note'>
|
|
You need a `ffmpeg` binary in your system path. On Debain 8 you can install it from backports. If you want Hardware support on a Raspberry Pi you need to build it from sourceby ourself. Windows binary are avilable on [FFmpeg](http://www.ffmpeg.org/) homepage.

### {% linkable_title Noise %}
|
|
|
|
To enable your FFmpeg with noise detection in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
camera:
|
|
- platform: ffmpeg
|
|
tool: noise
|
|
input: FFMPEG_SUPPORTED_INPUT
|
|
name: FFmpeg Noise
|
|
ffmpeg_bin: /usr/bin/ffmpeg
|
|
peak: -30
|
|
duration: 1
|
|
reset: 20
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **input** (*Required*): A ffmpeg compatible input file, stream or feed.
|
|
- **tool** (*Required*): Is fix set to `noise`.
|
|
- **name** (*Optional*): This parameter allows you to override the name of your camera.
|
|
- **ffmpeg_bin** (*Optional*): Default `ffmpeg`.
|
|
- **peak** (*Optional*): Default -30. A peak of dB to detect it as noise. 0 is very loud and -100 is low.
|
|
- **duration** (*Optional*): Default 1 seconds. How long need the noise over the peak to trigger the state.
|
|
- **reset** (*Optional*): Defaults to 20 seconds. The time to reset the state after none new noise is over the peak.
|
|
- **extra_arguments** (*Optional*): Extra option they will pass to `ffmpeg`, like audio frequence filtering.
|
|
- **output** (*Optional*): Allow you to send the audio output of this sensor to a icecast server or other ffmpeg supported output, eg. to stream with sonos after state is trigger.
|
|
|
|
For playing with values:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ ffmpeg -i YOUR_INPUT -vn -filter:a silencedetect=n=-30dB:d=1 -f null -
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### {% linkable_title Motion %}
|
|
|
|
FFmpeg don't have a motion detection filter so it use a scene filter to detect a new scene/motion. In fact you can set how big a object or size of image they need change to detect a motion. The option 'changes' is the percent value of change between frames. You can add a denoise filter to video if you want a realy small value for 'changes'.
|
|
|
|
To enable your FFmpeg with motion detection in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
camera:
|
|
- platform: ffmpeg
|
|
tool: motion
|
|
input: FFMPEG_SUPPORTED_INPUT
|
|
name: FFmpeg Motion
|
|
ffmpeg_bin: /usr/bin/ffmpeg
|
|
changes: 10
|
|
reset: 20
|
|
# group feature / default not in use
|
|
repeat: 0
|
|
repeat_time: 0
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **input** (*Required*): A ffmpeg compatible input file, stream or feed.
|
|
- **tool** (*Required*): Is fix set to `motion`.
|
|
- **name** (*Optional*): This parameter allows you to override the name of your camera.
|
|
- **ffmpeg_bin** (*Optional*): Default `ffmpeg`.
|
|
- **changes** (*Optional*): Default 10 percent. A lower value is more sensitive. I use 4 / 3.5 on my cameras. It describe how much of two frames need to change to detect it as motion. See on descripton.
|
|
- **reset** (*Optional*): Default 20 seconds. The time to reset the state after none new motion is detect.
|
|
- **repeat** (*Optional*): Default 0 repeats (deactivate). How many motion need to detect in *repeat_time* to trigger a motion.
|
|
- **repeat_time** (*Optional*): Default 0 seconds (deactivate). The time to repeats before it trigger a motion.
|
|
- **extra_arguments** (*Optional*): Extra option they will pass to ffmpeg. i.e. video denoise filtering.
|
|
|
|
For playing with values (changes/100 is the scene value on ffmpeg):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ ffmpeg -i YOUR_INPUT -an -filter:v select=gt(scene\,0.1) -f framemd5 -
|
|
```
|
|
|
