### Calculating shm-size
The default shm-size of 64m is fine for setups with 3 or less 1080p cameras. If frigate is exiting with "Bus error" messages, it could be because you have too many high resolution cameras and you need to specify a higher shm size.
You can calculate the necessary shm-size for each camera with the following formula:
```
(width * height * 1.5 * 7 + 270480)/1048576 = <shm size in mb>
```
The shm size cannot be set per container for HomeAssistant Addons. You must set `default-shm-size` in `/etc/docker/daemon.json` to increase the default shm size. This will increase the shm size for all of your docker containers. This may or may not cause issues with your setup. https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/dockerd/#daemon-configuration-file

For ideal performance, Frigate needs access to underlying hardware for the Coral and GPU devices for ffmpeg decoding. Running Frigate in a VM on top of Proxmox, ESXi, Virtualbox, etc. is not recommended. The virtualization layer typically introduces a sizable amount of overhead for communication with Coral devices.
