Describe the problem you are having

I've got Frigate loaded on a LXC container in Proxmox. I'm trying to get hardware acceleration working - but getting a little stumped along the way.

I'm running an Intel NUC i3-4010U (4th Generation).

I've tried including the following but that is throwing up errors.
environment:
FRIGATE_RTSP_PASSWORD: xxx
LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME: i965

Any thoughts welcome.

Proxmox is an unsupported installation method.

For 0.14, users have reported some success with the community scripts/tteck script for installing Frigate in an LXC.

If you search the past discussions, you'll find all sorts of past discussions on how users have passed through their iGPU. Perhaps someone else in the community can help as well, myself nor any of the other maintainers are unfamiliar with and don't use Proxmox.

Many thanks. Yes, the tteck script worked and I've got Frigate loaded and installed in an LXC. All working fine.
It's the passing through of the iGPU which I'm proving tricky.

But I'll have a review of past discussions. Thanks.
