Start OBS after reboot without user login

Hello,

we are running OBS Studio on Win 2019 Server for streaming and recording and want OBS Studio to be started automatically after a reboot.

Usually the servers are booting up without a user logged in. That's why I created a scheduled task, which starts OBS. That's working but OBS is started on a hidden desktop so that GUI is not accessible. We might be able to auto-logon the user after a reboot which is a security risk.

Are there other options like start OBS as service and when user is logged in, GUI connects to that service?

Kind Regards
Daniel
 
OBS Studio is not designed for running as a service. It's designed for interactive use to produce a live show on a client.
If you want an automated tool, look for command line tools like ffmpeg. This can be scripted and completely automated and doesn't need any GPU or audio device.
