Debugging
There are two cases in which this error happens:
- You have a device that has an integrated GPU (for example on a laptop), and python is running on the dedicated GPU.
- Your computer is too old to support the directx version dxcam needs.
Fix for case 1:
Go into your windows graphics settings, and set python.exe to run on the iGPU. (you might have to search for python.exe if it's not shown in the list)
A common location could be C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311
Fix for case 2:
Disable dxcam and enable mss in the plugin menu. Keep in mind that plugins are designed to run on dxcam, and not everything will work with mss.
