Hey again !
Finally I was able to install the voyager-SDK on my metis compute board ! Turns out I was debugging too much with chat gpt and it really does nonsense things I should have read more thoroughly the user guide for the metis or the github repository…
But now I have the SDK and I can test the different models directly in the SDK :)
I successfully ran the yolov5s-v7-coco.yaml via ./inference <modelname> <media>
But I can only run this model…
I wonder if it’s normal and the other models in the folder ax_models/ are here but not compiled and need a certain action by the user (me), or if it is a bug and I’m doing something wrong ?
When I try to run for example the yolov7 model with the argument --no-display just to see if it works :
./inference.py yolov7-coco media/traffic1_1080p.mp4 --no-display I have this error :

Thank you !
