Describe the problem you are having

Hi, I'm trying to set up hardware acceleration on my Beelink EQ12.

Frigate is installed on Docker. When I first started Frigate a few days ago, I remember noticing something in the logs about hardware acceleration, and the percentage indicator on the GUI was reasonable.

Now, a few days later, I cannot see the indication in the logs or any activity on the GUI (it's showing 0%).

I've read other discussions complaining about this (#16609; #16438), but my scenario is slightly different, so I'm not sure how to approach it.

Vainfo Output looks good, please found it below. I'm using preset-intel-qsv-h264

You need to add a model. You should follow the documentation for using OpenVINO: https://docs.frigate.video/configuration/object_detectors/#openvino-detector

It looks like it is working correctly for video decoding, your main CPU problem is using cpu detector which is not recommended, you should be using openvino with the N100 GPU

Hi, thanks!

I tried to add the detector this way (looking at the documentation and other discussions:

mqtt:
enabled: false

detectors:
ov:
type: openvino
device: GPU

ffmpeg:
hwaccel_args: preset-intel-qsv-h264
output_args:
record: preset-record-generic-audio-aac

but I get this error (from log files):

Should also note that the GPU usage dropping to 0 after a while is just a bug in Intel GPU tools.
