Server startup error

Hi,

I’m new to CasparCG and I can’t make it start either in ubuntu 22.04 nor 20.04 (current test env).
Here’s the output:

# casparcg caspercg.config 
Type "q" to close application.

Being a Windows guy, I don’t know much about Ubuntu Linux. But from your log I see, that you have an AMD GPU. If I remember right we had problems with these in the past. Can you try wit an nVidia GPU?

3

This is a known issue with some older versions. Latest master fixes this, I don’t think the fix has made it to a stable release yet.

4

Sorry, I don’t have nvidia laptops to install in… only AMD

5

Ok, I will try to compile the app and try again. I’m using ubuntu version. I will post here the results.
Thanks

If you’re compiling a version, it should be enough to apply fix: Replace deprecated texture2D GLSL function (#1420) · CasparCG/server@09c6553 · GitHub on top of any version you wish to use.

But master should be usable and stable at this point, so I would recommend giving that a try unless you have a reason not to

It worked, now it’s running.
Thanks.
