I’m currently looking at a solution to launch an object detection app on Host, with the GUI running on Host and the compute nodes doing all the video processing and analytics part. I see this solution is similar to my approach but I couldn’t find any information on how to setup. May I know where to more info about this? As I googled, Cinelerra is a video processing editor, which has nothing to do with clustering. Can you guide me on this?
