I have three Lenovo ThinkCentre Tiny M900s that I’m in the process of setting up as a basic Docker swarm. I intend to run the usual HomeLab stuff on it (Plex, storage, etc.) and I would love hardware video encoding. However, because of their amazing compact form factor, fitting a GPU in there is not possible (and I want to keep it at least looking stock). There is an M.2 E key slot for WiFi, but I’m not using it. I know there’s a card you can put there that adds a TPU AI co-processor (https://www.coral.ai/products/m2-accelerator-ae), but does anyone know of a simple video encoder that fits in the same form factor?

    QuickSync… This is the way.

    Coral TPU is cool thou, so have two of them for my frigate setup but that not for gpu workload.
