frigate: update metadata and installer

Update frontend metadata (config path, interface port, and expanded description) and modernize the install script: switch apt-get to apt, streamline dependency list (remove wget/jq/unzip), replace inline hardware-acceleration/GPU group tweaks with setup_hwaccel, pin Frigate release to v0.16.4 for reproducible installs, and fetch/libusb build now uses fetch_and_deploy_gh_release with adjusted paths. Also clean up removed temporary files.
Update frigate.json

CanbiZ (MickLesk)	4a88c9c889	frigate: update metadata and installer Update frontend metadata (config path, interface port, and expanded description) and modernize the install script: switch apt-get to apt, streamline dependency list (remove wget/jq/unzip), replace inline hardware-acceleration/GPU group tweaks with setup_hwaccel, pin Frigate release to v0.16.4 for reproducible installs, and fetch/libusb build now uses fetch_and_deploy_gh_release with adjusted paths. Also clean up removed temporary files.	2026-02-13 13:56:49 +01:00

CanbiZ (MickLesk)	a666c11add	Add Frigate metadata and overhaul installer Add frontend metadata for Frigate (frontend/public/json/frigate.json), remove the old .bak metadata file, and perform a major refactor of install/frigate-install.sh. The installer now targets Debian 12 (Bookworm), converts APT sources to deb822, installs and builds required dependencies (Python wheels, libusb, OpenVINO, Tempio, Nginx, sqlite extensions), configures hardware acceleration and GPU access, fetches and deploys Frigate and go2rtc releases, and prepares inference/audio models. Systemd service units were improved (dependencies, env file usage, safer log file handling, create_directories service) and services are enabled/started with cleanup steps added. Also updated copyright/authorship and various runtime environment exports and default Frigate config changes (ffmpeg hwaccel, detector selection, disabled auth/detect in default config).	2026-02-13 13:43:50 +01:00
