# Birdseye
Birdseye allows a heads-up view of your cameras to see what is going on around your property / space without having to watch all cameras that may have nothing happening. Birdseye allows specific modes that intelligently show and disappear based on what you care about.
In addition to Frigate's Live camera dashboard, Birdseye allows a portable heads-up view of your cameras to see what is going on around your property / space without having to watch all cameras that may have nothing happening. Birdseye allows specific modes that intelligently show and disappear based on what you care about.
Birdseye can be viewed by adding the "Birdseye" camera to a Camera Group in the Web UI. Add a Camera Group by pressing the "+" icon on the Live page, and choose "Birdseye" as one of the cameras.
Birdseye can also be used in HomeAssistant dashboards, cast to media devices, etc.
## Birdseye Behavior
### Birdseye Modes
Birdseye offers different modes to customize which cameras show under which circumstances.
- **continuous:** All cameras are always included
- **motion:** Cameras that have detected motion within the last 30 seconds are included
- **objects:** Cameras that have tracked an active object within the last 30 seconds are included

Frigate has different live view options, some of which require the bundled `go2rtc` to be configured as shown in the [step by step guide](/guides/configuring_go2rtc).
Frigate intelligently displays your camera streams on the Live view dashboard. Your camera images update once per minute when no detectable activity is occurring to conserve bandwidth and resources. As soon as any motion is detected, cameras seamlessly switch to a live stream.

## Motion masks
Motion masks are used to prevent unwanted types of motion from triggering detection. Try watching the debug feed with `Motion Boxes` enabled to see what may be regularly detected as motion. For example, you want to mask out your timestamp, the sky, rooftops, etc. Keep in mind that this mask only prevents motion from being detected and does not prevent objects from being detected if object detection was started due to motion in unmasked areas. Motion is also used during object tracking to refine the object detection area in the next frame. Over masking will make it more difficult for objects to be tracked. To see this effect, create a mask, and then watch the video feed with `Motion Boxes` enabled again.

Review items are saved as periods of time where frigate detected events. After watching the preview of a review item it is marked as reviewed.
The Review page of the Frigate UI is for quickly reviewing historical footage of interest from your cameras. _Review items_ are indicated on a vertical timeline and displayed as a grid of previews - bandwidth-optimized, low frame rate, low resolution videos. Hovering over or swiping a preview plays the video and marks it as reviewed. If more in-depth analysis is required, the preview can be clicked/tapped and the full frame rate, full resolution recording is displayed.
Review items are filterable by date, object type, and camera.
## Alerts and Detections
Not every segment of video captured by Frigate may be of the same level of interest to you. Video of people who enter your property may be a different priority than those walking by on the sidewalk. For this reason, Frigate 0.14 categorizes review items as _alerts_ and _detections_. By default, all person and car objects are considered alerts. You can refine categorization of your review items by configuring required zones for them.

Cameras configured to output H.264 video and AAC audio will offer the most compatibility with all features of Frigate and Home Assistant. H.265 has better compression, but less compatibility. Chrome 108+, Safari and Edge are the only browsers able to play H.265 and only support a limited number of H.265 profiles. Ideally, cameras should be configured directly for the desired resolutions and frame rates you want to use in Frigate. Reducing frame rates within Frigate will waste CPU resources decoding extra frames that are discarded. There are three different goals that you want to tune your stream configurations around.
- **Detection**: This is the only stream that Frigate will decode for processing. Also, this is the stream where snapshots will be generated from. The resolution for detection should be tuned for the size of the objects you want to detect. See [Choosing a detect resolution](#choosing-a-detect-resolution) for more details. The recommended frame rate is 5fps, but may need to be higher for very fast moving objects. Higher resolutions and frame rates will drive higher CPU usage on your server.

- **Stream Viewing**: This stream will be rebroadcast as is to Home Assistant for viewing with the stream component. Setting this resolution too high will use significant bandwidth when viewing streams in Home Assistant, and they may not load reliably over slower connections.
