[Feature Request] Frigate+ submission workflow improvement

[sjsmarts]

When I review snapshots to submit to Frigate+ I believe the workflow could be substantially improved with 3 changes:

1. Topic: Only show snapshots which can be submitted to Frigate+

Current Experience: When you select the filters "has a snapshot: yes" and "submitted to Frigate+: no" the UI will still show audio detections which can not be submitted. You can manually deselect the audio detections in the filter but it's not obvious by the labels which are audio or not.

Suggested Improvement: When you select has a snapshot and not submitted to Frigate - automatically filter out audio detections.

2. Topic: Faster snapshot review

Current Experience: You click "yes" or "no" buttons and then use an arrow key to get the next snapshot.

Suggested Improvement: When you click "yes" or "no" automatically advance to the next snapshot, additionally enable the use of hotkeys to submit (e.g., pressing the "y" key submits the image as a true positive, the "n" key submits as a false positive) and then also automatically advance. Consider, enabling auto-advance as a setting.

3. Topic: Reduce incorrect labels

Current Experience: When reviewing snapshots the Submit UI refreshes quickly and sometime shows a stale snapshot. Usually detectable and you can click another tab and then back to snapshot to force load the snap shot but if it's the same camera/ label and I am moving quickly I sometimes submit incorrect labels.

Suggested improvement: Gate loading the submission buttons on a new snapshot load, alternatively / in adddition: allow users to mark a label as a false positive in Frigate+ once the snapshot is submitted. When this happens to me I delete the label and add a new one if appropriate but I am not sure if this is the right course of action and I don't see a way to mark a label as a false positive in the same way it shows up when directly submitted.

I appreciate your consideration and your dedication to this great software, thank you!

1. I think this makes sense, should be able to key in on the frigate+ filter specifically
2. I don't think this makes sense, in my case I am quite selective on what images are submitted and I wouldn't want to have the image change automatically just because I submitted one, especially because that will change the selection and scroll the page underneath potentially.
3. Can you show a video of this? I have not seen this / not sure what exactly you mean

[sjsmarts]

so fast!

1. Great
2. Fair enough, to be clear the suggestion is just that you advance to the next image after submitting one, you could still use the arrow keys to go to the next image without submitting the current one. Very possible I don't understand your concern though!
3. Yes, let find a way to do a screen recording and edit it (not my usual thing) and will add a video. I would prefer to not share the video publicly though - is there a way to send it to just to the folks interested in working on the feature (if not I will still probably post a video from a generic view.) I need a day or two to find the time to do that.

2. right, but I would rather close out and then see the full view to decide if there is another that is desirable to submit.
3. you can email me [email protected]

Thanks nick, took a bit but I uploaded a recording to google drive and shared it to your account!

[NickM-27]

that is quite odd, I have never seen that behavior and trying now I am unable to reproduce, perhaps this may be some browser issue. what browser are you running?

unrelated to this discussion, but I would suggest that you adjust what objects are on particular cameras. It does not make sense to detect a car on a camera where no car can be detected

weird! This is on Chrome latest - both on a mac and a windows 10 machine - on my mac it's Version 133.0.6943.142 (Official Build) (arm64)

And ACK on the detected objects, i've been focused on getting stable recordings but will eventually fix that :)
