Hello, I want to put OBS on the server (DirectX 11 is supported). After installation, I run the program, and it gives an error "failed to initialize video. your gpu may not be supported". What to do?

OBS isn't able to find any graphics adapter. OBS needs a physical GPU to run. A vps is not supported, as well as machines without any physical GPU.

No, OBS is designed to use the GPU for vital functionality. This is more efficient in comparison to using the CPU for video processing. OBS is not able to run without GPU. It doesn't matter if you don't intend to capture a game or other graphics application. OBS uses the GPU for compositing the video data.
