It seems you are using the CLIP model, which you can run on the CPU. Would you have any estimates of how long the indexing would take? Also curious how often you sample videos (every minute? every 10sec?)
One of the troubles I have is the large library of family videos, which become especially difficult to index. I've been thinking of everything from sample-indexing to scene detection etc.
I'm making improvements to make indexing more resilient and faster. The videos are sampled once every second. That's something I'm tweaking for better performance as well. Was considering letting the user adjust this too.
How have you tried indexing your videos so far?
I’m tired of people trying to force a square peg (MacBooks) into a round hole (ml compute). Apple needs to get on board with making it easier and more cost effective for people to access compute more effectively. Developers are jumping through hoops to accommodate apples business goals of locking you to their ecosystem.
