To work around this locally I use NoMachine as a remote desktop tool to connect to my streaming machine and I have a cheap HDMI dummy monitor which tricks the GPU into thinking it has a monitor plugged in. This means you cannot use the Windows Remote Desktop tool as it swaps out the display for a virtual one, as I later discovered this becomes a major issue when working with GPU enabled cloud instances. One important thing to note is that for nvenc to work you must have a display hooked up to the card. The 1050ti is a few years old, but still supports nvenc which is the Nvidia library for doing hardware encoding. ![]() The most important component of an OBS machine is that it contains something capable of doing h.264 encoding in hardware, otherwise the CPU will be blasted. I already have a pretty decent streaming box at home, its a couple year old Dell workstation that I added an SSD and a Nvidia GTX 1050 ti. I chose to use Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) to manage the stream and Windows as the OS to run it on (OBS support is generally best on windows). I had the dubious honor of being the most experienced at the technical setup for live streaming and therefore was nominated as the person to figure out how to live stream the event to Youtube. To see the replays of the event you can watch the Day 1 and Day 2 streams over on youtube. ![]() I recently had the privilege to help organize DevOpsDays Texas 2021, a virtual event that we ran to try and scratch our DevOpsDays itch given that in-person conferences won’t be happening any time soon. ![]()
