How do I exclude LLMVision from backing up?

[soubhik-khan]

After installing LLMVision integration, my backup size significantly increased although Im doing a partial back up, LLM vision doesn't show up to unselect from partial backup! Even after excluding all of these my backup size went to 30GB and unable to upload on gDrive!

Hi, LLM Vision shouldn't take up that much storage. I assume those are not just snapshots of events. One user has reported the tmp folder isn't deleted properly. The folder is in /custom_components/llmvision and called tmp_frames or tmp_clips. If one of these folders exist, you can safely delete them.

Thanks so much for the suggestion! You were spot on – the tmp_frames folder was the issue, ballooning to over 30GB. I've cleared it, and the backup size is now back under 1GB. Any ideas on how to prevent this folder from growing so large again?

The next update may fix this issue (I can't verify because it doesn't happen to me).

I suspect it happens when the root folder for the Home Assistant config is not named /config. Previously the path was hard coded, now hass.config.path is used to construct the file path.
