Describe the problem you are having

I recently upgrated to frigate+ and started using my own model. Since then, I'm having an issue where frigate will begin capturing an event and never stop. For example I have an alert that started at 5:30 PM and ended at 9:30 PM. I set the threshold to 0.7. If I set it to 0.8 I start missing alerts. Any ideas

Got it, if it moves around then the best course of action would be to work on training the Frigate+ model so things continue to improve.

we need to see a visual example of what you are talking about. You are also using event and alert seemingly interchangeably but these are different things.

I don't see any excessive motion currently. I'll keep an eye out for the next few alerts and see what happens. Is there anything in my configuration that would make this happen?

Well, that is why I suggested that the debug live view is used. So there is no guessing and we can see exactly what is going on

OK, I left debug window open for a while and got this

This false positive moves around so it is never really seen as stationary.
