Models zoo for 8L compiled for 8 in v2.14 ?

I’ve been trying to download compiled models for 8L. but I’ve tried 10 different models, and they all give me an error “HEF format is not compatible with device. Device arch: HAILO8L, HEF arch: HAILO8”
I’m running
ConfigureParams.create_from_hef(hef=hef, interface=HailoStreamInterface.PCIe)

I’ve tried instead downloading the same models but changing the url to v2.13 instead of v2.14 and not they seem to not give this error again and work just fine.

Is the problem with me (maybe I need to update something so it will know it is 8 and not 8l in v 2.14? ) or with the new version?

Thanks!

Hi @dvir.itzko,

Welcome to the Hailo Community!
Apologies for the inconvenience, this is a known issue that will be fixed soon.

  • If you are using HailoRT 4.19.0, you should download the models from Model Zoo v2.13 for compatibility (since they were compiled with DFC 3.29.0)
  • If you already migrated to HailoRT 4.20.0, you can stick with the old models from Model Zoo v2.13, and switch to v2.14 as soon as the issue is solved.

No further action is needed from your side.
I would also add that - in case of doubts -you can use hailortcli parse-hef command to verify the architecture the HEF was compiled for.

Thanks for the response!.
Just to clarify, if I’ll upgrade to 4.20, I still have to wait before downloading models for v2.14?

Also - for future reference, I was 80% sure it wasn’t my fault, Is there a better place for bug/issue report?

thanks!

Hi @dvir.itzko,

As of Thursday, the v2.14 release had not been officially released yet. However, it is now officially available, and you’re welcome to use it!

Let me know if you encounter any issues or have any questions.

Best regards,
Ronit

@ronits Thanks!
I was downloading the models from the master branch so I’m not sure how come they wasn’t officially released yet, but if they are supported now , this is what is important :slight_smile:
