AI Analysis
●●SolidCozySolve My Problem
Frigate NVR native on Mac with Neural Engine detection, no Docker or subscriptions.
Strengths
- •CoreML detector in Rust runs on Neural Engine at ~1ms per-frame on M4.
- •VideoToolbox hardware decode avoids CPU load and keeps fans quiet.
- •$10 one-time payment with no per-camera fees or subscription lock-in.
Weaknesses
- •macOS-only limits audience when Frigate already runs cross-platform via Docker.
- •Still depends on Frigate's core engine, not a standalone implementation.
