Split Type B into B1 (pairing-based like homekit) and B2 (cloud-auth like xiaomi/tapo/nest/ring/roborock/tuya). Document the xiaomi copy-from-go2rtc template with stateless token flow. Add version note about Frigate stable shipping go2rtc 1.9.10 without xiaomi support. Reference xiaomi and homekit modules as golden templates. Replace commit step with handoff to add_generate_strix and add_probe_detector_strix. |

STRIX
Camera stream discovery and Frigate config generator.
- 3,600+ camera brands with 100,000+ URL patterns in SQLite database
- automatic device probing in 100ms: ports, ARP/OUI, mDNS/HomeKit, HTTP
- 20 parallel workers test every URL with live screenshots
- supports RTSP, HTTP, RTMP, Bubble, DVRIP and more
- ready Frigate config with smart merge into existing setup
- auto-discovery of Frigate and go2rtc on local network
- zero-dependency static binary for Linux amd64/arm64
- can be used as standalone app, Docker, or Home Assistant add-on

Install
Any Linux or Proxmox, one command:
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eduard256/Strix/main/install.sh)
Run as root (or with sudo). Interactive installer detects your system (Linux / Proxmox) and guides you through setup.
Open http://YOUR_IP:4567
How it works
Enter camera IP. Strix probes the device - open ports, MAC vendor, mDNS, HTTP server.
Search camera model in database. Enter credentials if needed.
Strix builds all possible stream URLs from database patterns.
20 parallel workers test every URL. Live screenshots, codecs, resolution, latency.
Pick main and sub streams from results.
Generate ready Frigate config. Copy, download, or save directly to Frigate.
Camera works in Frigate. Done.

Camera database
SQLite database with 3,600+ brands and 100,000+ URL patterns. Maintained separately in StrixCamDB. Database is embedded in Docker image and bundled with binary releases.
Browse supported cameras - search by brand or model to check if your camera is in the database.
Three entity types:
- Presets - curated sets of popular URL patterns (e.g. "ONVIF", "Popular RTSP")
- Brands - all URL patterns for a brand (e.g. "Hikvision", "Dahua")
- Models - URL patterns for a specific model within a brand
Camera not in the database? Add it here.
Developers: integrate Strix HTTP API into your smart home platform.
Testing: StrixCamFake - IP camera emulator for development and testing. StrixAHKCamFake - Apple HomeKit camera emulator.
