I need to migrate a server off windows and I’m looking at fedora or proxmox. But there’s a couple things I need to plan out first.

First, they have blue iris. It looks like frigate will serve their needs just fine but the docs say I need some type of hardware for object detection. This system doesn’t need object detection. It’s mostly for shoplifters or challenging bogus credit card fraud clams. Do I really need a detector of some sort for frigate?

Second, we are looking at moving the stores music to play off the server too. They have all the original CDs they want to use so we can rip those but controlling it is odd. I want a web interface they can use their phones to control. Jellyfin isn’t a great fit here because I don’t think it has local audio output support. It’s more for streaming the media to other devices. The amp will connect to the server on the rack. What apps are out there that can do this?
