recording / snapshot on demand

[Mareckil]

I didn't find this feature in Frigate, although it's quite common in other NVR software. Not everyone has continuous recording configured for various reasons. However, it can be useful to start recording or take a snapshot while watching the live view. If we could have two buttons on the live camera window to trigger these actions and save the files in separate folders, such as /media/on_demand, it would be a significant advantage for this already great software.

I don't think the API addresses the request.
This is wanting a UI element on the actual Live View window, that can trigger the recording/snapshot

Which is why the request is still open, I was just making note of the fact that the API already exists
