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.
Please take a breath and step away. I am pointing out that if you don’t know what an NVR is you most likely don’t want to mess with Frigate. It’s possible you do and you will learn a lot but in a thread about initialism, knowing what an NVR is tablestakes knowledge to running a Frigate deployment. It’s ok we disagree! Don’t degrade yourself to the level of a childish argument.
> What's the big deal that you need to call hard drives by an acronym that doesn't even mention that they're drives? No duh, of course the drives are on a network, and of course they store data.
See the problem?
Frigate is not "Cameras". Not all cameras are networked. Not all cameras record. Not all software that integrates with networked cameras is NVR software.
Consumers are a wide range of people. 99 percent who have never heard
NVR is a niche term for a tiny number of people in a tiny industry.
