Question / Help Install OBS without GPU

[Terrum]

How does one exactly install OBS without a GPU? I've seen it done before and I'm aware that it may be laggy or slow, however for my experimental purposes it would be nice to know how to do it.

I am trying to run a 24/7 YouTube stream with live stats and RTMP does not support this. I have used Google and tried to search other threads but they do not offer a solution, despite knowing that it is definitely possible.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

You don't. OBS uses and requires the hardware acceleration provided by the GPU.
Installations on systems with emulated GPUs, such as some VPS, seems to work at first glance (you are able to start OBS), but since it is emulated, performance is mediocre and not suited for real use.
