electron error AVDCreateGPUAccelerator: Error loading GPU renderer

Question

I'm attempting my first electron App. Does anyone know why i get this error AVDCreateGPUAccelerator: Error loading GPU renderer in the terminal when i do npm start? It doesn't seem to effect anything yet. I've gotten it right from the beginning of my install using the quick start guide. Will it effect me down the road?

mac pro late 2013 2.7 GHz 12-Core Intel Xeon E5 128 GB 800 MHz DDR3 ECC AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB

Answer 1

Most likely the AVDCreateGPUAccelerator error is because the Xeon CPUs used in the Mac Pros do not have a hardware decoder. Core i3/5/7 CPUs in Mac mini/iMac/Mac Book Pro) should work fine.
