    Could probably do it with something like a Google coral. You can get one for $60 these days. A lot cheaper than a GPU and less power hungry too.

      That’s still another thing that needs to be bought, installed, and fed with power.
      My low power would likely melt trying to run Whisper.

        A USB coral uses barely any power and if you have a hard time installing USB devices…

        Besides, a lot of people are already using them for frigate. I am.

          I was only aware of the m.2 variants.

          Still, it’s a thing to be bought which I have not had to do for years for my media solution.
