Hey! Yes, the aarch64-viseron image will work on the Raspberry Pi 5 since it shares the same 64-bit architecture as the Pi 4. The core installation steps via Docker remain identical. One thing to keep in mind is hardware acceleration. While the general image works, the Pi 5 has a more powerful GPU and different multimedia capabilities. If you were using specific RPi 4 hardware decoders, you'll want to check the Viseron docs for the latest Pi 5 recommendations—usually, standard FFmpeg with software decoding or a Coral EdgeTPU works even better on the Pi 5 due to the improved performance. But for a basic setup, you're good to follow the Pi 4 guide! Hope that helps! |
