## A word on running in a VM
-While the Core runs fine inside a VM (like [VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org/)), the GUI usually uses the [X11-Xv-Extension](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_video_extension) to play back video into the X11-Server. This Extension is not supported on most VMs, so to run inside such a VM you'll need to tell the GUI to fall back to using traditional X-Images by using a `config.ini` on the GUI with this option:
-````
-[x11]
-xv=false
-````
+While the Core runs fine inside any VM, the GUI uses OpenGL to display the Video-Streams. Don't forget to enable 3D Acceleration in your VM to support this.
