[HW Accel Support]: ffmpeg does not work stably when using preset-vaapi #19821
-
Describe the problem you are havingI'm trying to launch frigate and use preset-vaapi with my processor, but for some reason ffmpeg is not working very stably, I'm migrating my frigate from orangepi 5 plus to scale, and I'm faced with this problem. My orange pi 5 plus handled all the threads perfectly and was 11% loaded. My CPU: Ryzen 7 5825u Version0.16.0 Frigate config fileversion: 0.16-0

Right, we recommend using a VM if you're going to use Proxmox: https://docs.frigate.video/frigate/installation/#proxmox |

And how do I transfer the embedded graphics to a virtual machine? in the documentation, I found an example only with an lxc container, and it seems to me that this is not possible. |

None of the other maintainers nor myself use Proxmox but @inkeep might be able to help with that, there are likely a number of past discussions where users have posted about it. |

Yes, you're right, I launched frigate on the proxmox host itself via docker and everything is working stably. |

Running Frigate under Proxmox is not officially supported, and the documentation notes that virtualization can introduce complications, especially with hardware passthrough and networking. Users have reported that getting GPU and Coral devices working in virtualized environments like Proxmox may be difficult or impossible, and that communication overhead can impact performance. For best results, Frigate is recommended to run on bare metal Debian-based hosts, but some users have found success with Proxmox by carefully configuring device passthrough and system resources(1). For more detailed community experiences and troubleshooting, you can check out the Proxmox LXC discussion at: Proxmox LXC discussion(1). 📚 Sources: Have another question? Just tag @inkeep. |

Yes, you're right, I launched frigate on the proxmox host itself via docker and everything is working stably.
