Let's say you have Frigate configured so that your doorbell camera would retain the last **2** days of 24/7 recording.

- With the `all` option all 48 hours of those two days would be kept and viewable.
- With the `motion` option the only parts of those 48 hours would be segments that Frigate detected motion. This is the middle ground option that won't keep all 48 hours, but will likely keep all segments of interest along with the potential for some extra segments.
- With the `active_objects` option the only segments that would be kept are those where there was a true positive object that was not considered stationary.

## Can I have "continuous" recordings, but only at certain times?
Using Frigate UI, HomeAssistant, or MQTT, cameras can be automated to only record in certain situations or at certain times.
