    I set up an Ubuntu VServer, installed Open Broadcaster Software, and wanted to do a little radio stream for YouTube.

    If I start OBS it shows me a Failed to initialize video. Your GPU may not be supported, or your graphics drivers may need to be updated message.

    Is there any way to simulate the GPU - Driver or does anyone have a hint for me?

    This VServer runs with OpenVZ 7, but I rented it, so I can't access the settings of the virtualization software.
