Frames Saved to DB Despite "Save JPEGs" Disabled

Investigating fast database growth I found that it's due to the Frames table storing the frames for all events. I have Monitor > Storage > Save JPEGs set to Disabled. The monitor function is Modect and the Video Writer is on Camera Passthrough. Is there any other setting needed to stop each frame from being saved to the db? My goal is to save the video of the event (which is working) but not the individual frames.showbox speed test

Bulk frames interval can control but not stop it, I think mine is set to 100, but could try higher. Good idea to check
If has any unintended consequences, if not then maybe we should try stopping it unless doing motion detection.
