Question / Help Quick Sync encoder initialization failed

[Raio Boss]

Hello there everybody.

I managed to "un-grey" my quick sync option in the obs settings.

When I start to record tho it tells me this:

I don't have a second real monitor available so I guess I have to set a virtual one? I tried a couple of things but I cannot solve the issue. Does anybody have any solution?

Upgrade to windows 8 or newer. Windows 7 requires a display, virtual or otherwise, attached to the intel gpu to allow quicksync to work. Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 do not.
