Home Assistant dashboard:
fullscreen camera stream

when motion is detected

Home Assistant logo I have a tablet dashboard in my living room where I show weather, news and actual home data.

I wanted to show a full screen live stream of my frontdoor when someone is detected entering my frontdoor.

I have already Frigate installed to recognize a person and not get triggered when a cat walks by in my front yard.
