Frigate OpenVINO Detector path not found!

[Lip90]

I am using the Frigate script as a previledged container. When I try to use the object detection I always get the following error message:

In my config, I followed the example in the Frigate documentation.

detectors:
  ov:
    type: openvino
    device: AUTO
    model:
      path: /openvino-model/ssdlite_mobilenet_v2.xml

Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve the problem?

Do you have AVX instructions supported on your CPU? Because installation script skips openvino installation if it's not supported.

I ran into the same issue not too long ago. I found that the path of the model file is actually under /openvino-model/FP16/ssdlite_mobilenet_v2.xml. So if you update the config to point to this path it should work.
