I’m sure it depends on your workload, but I’ve been running object detection just fine off the igpu on my i5-8600. I think the key is to
ensure the frame size isn’t unnecessarily large for object detection.
Camera setup | Frigate
Cameras configured to output H.264 video and AAC audio will offer the most compatibility with all features of Frigate and Home Assistant. H.265 has better compression, but less compatibility. Chrome 108+, Safari and Edge are the only browsers able to play H.265 and only support a limited number of H.265 profiles. Ideally, cameras should be configured directly for the desired resolutions and frame rates you want to use in Frigate. Reducing frame rates within Frigate will waste CPU resources decoding extra frames that are discarded. There are three different goals that you want to tune your stream configurations around.
That looks amazing! Did you make it yourself or where did you get it from?
Having played all 3, I think Clank Catacombs is the best iteration so far. The variable dungeon tiles really add to the “exploring” theme while improving the replay value. My group loves how you are really incentivized to push your luck on whether to take a known route back vs cutting a new path.
Thanks for speaking up on this! Too many “ai-trepreneuers” out there these days trying to auto-generate content to make a quick buck.
IKR! The Zenfone 9 looked like a great form-factor for me but only 2 years of Android updates is just too short to me (as someone who tries to keep using the same phone until it truly croaks)
