+# AMD/ROCm GPU based detector
+
+## Docker settings
+
+AMD/ROCm needs access to `/dev/kfd` and `/dev/dri`. When running as user also needs the `video group. Sometimes also needs the `render` and `ssh/_ssh` groups.
+For reference/comparison see [running ROCm PyTorch Docker image](https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/install-on-linux/en/develop/how-to/3rd-party/pytorch-install.html#using-docker-with-pytorch-pre-installed).
+
+```bash
+$ docker run -it --device=/dev/kfd --device=/dev/dri --group-add video \
+    ...
+```
+
+## Frigate configuration

+An example of a working configuration:
+
+```yaml

+  labelmap_path: /yolov8s_labels.txt
+  model_type: yolov8
