Video rendering and playback option greyed out

Question

Hi,

I have paid version of creative cloud pro

In my server there is no graphic card and i don’t want it. I am a small video editor and the server is lying with me with no use. So I decided to use it. Its a 24 core cpu dual socket, 256gb ecc ram and 8tb hdd. I want to use for video editing for just 1080p videos or less. But the issue is Video rendering and playback option greyed out and i want adobe premier pro use cpu resouce for rendering.

You’re going to need to use a Graphics Card. Can you explain why you don’t want to?

If you want software-only rendering, keep in mind that you can no longer set that rendering mode in Premiere (Pro) version 25.2 or newer. The current version is 26.3. With these newer versions, you’re permanently locked to the GPU acceleration mode.
