# UseGPU

Media Server can use a graphics card (GPU) to significantly increase the speed of some types of training and analysis.

This parameter specifies whether to enable GPU support when Media Server starts, so that a GPU is used for operations that run faster on a GPU. Set this parameter to one of the following values:

- `auto` - Enable GPU support if one is available, otherwise start Media Server without GPU support.
- `true` - Enable GPU support. Media Server does not start if the server has no GPU or the requirements for using the GPU have not been met.
- `false` - Do not enable GPU support.

NOTE:

If Media Server is configured to use a GPU but you attempt to run more operations than the GPU can process concurrently, your training action or `process` action will fail.

TIP:

Several requirements must be met before you can use a GPU. For information about how to use a GPU with Media Server, refer to the Media Server Administration Guide.
