OpenVino Support

To use OpenVino runtimes, you have the option select it on plugin install for compatible hardware. If you want to preselect GPU or NPU runtimes, make sure you have the very latest Intel drivers and libtbb installed on your machine. For the Intel drivers, follow: - For GPU: https://github.com/intel/compute-runtime/releases/tag/25.09.32961.5 - For NPU: https://github.com/intel/linux-npu-driver/releases/tag/v1.16.0

Also make sure you have the latest libtbb installed:

sudo apt install libtbb12 ocl-icd-libopencl1

Add the user to video and gender groups:

sudo usermod -aG video $USER

sudo usermod -aG render $USER

Then, add Environment="DEVICE_TYPE=GPU" vs Environment="DEVICE_TYPE=NPU" to /etc/systemd/system/networkoptix-metavms-mediaserver.service under [Service]:
