OBS Studio and OnlyOffice don't start after installation through Software

Hello,
I installed OBS Studio, Barrier and OnlyOffice through "Software App" GUI, but it doesn't start. I have installed encrypted GUI Gnome version of Artix and it is up to date:
artix-gnome-openrc-20200704-x86_64.iso
https://iso.artixlinux.org/testing-isos.php
Does apps from "Software Gui" are installed in a different way than "pacman"?
What could be the reason?

Barrier I was able to install by pacman -S barrier and it seems to be working.
With OBS I installed through pacman but it says GPU may not be supported. I have integrated Intel® HD Graphics which seems to be supported.
OnlyOffice I try install by "yay -S onlyoffce" but it still no luck.

Have you tried yay -S onlyoffice-bin?

Also, most people recommend libreoffice. It is in the official repos.

Yes I try "yay -S onlyoffice-bin". it is still doesn't start.
"Only office" has better compatibility with .xlsx files.

Does it give an error message when you start onlyoffice from the command line?

Yes.
From command line Tab fills such a name: onlyoffice-desktopeditors
It gives error:
This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platfrom plugin "wayland" in "". Available platform plugins are: linuxfb, minimal, offscreen, vnc, xcb.
Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

I don't know whether this will fix your problem, but installing qt5-wayland and running "onlyoffice-desktopeditors -platform wayland" should make that error go away.

I've installed qt5-wayland and run "onlyoffice-desktopeditors -platform wayland" and error is still the same

Hi, try with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb

Qt and wayland is not there yet.

Thanx for tip:
I've done:
 QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb
and
onlyoffice-desktopeditors& -platform xcb
and it works!

1. What is that xcb? Does it mean that OnlyOffice works on older Xorg engine?
2. QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb -> does it says that all my GUI is now Xorg?

I have "glxinfo" with:
OpenGL vendor string: Intel Open Source Technology Center
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) HD Gaphics (ILK)
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 20.3.4
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20

From project page:
https://projectobs.com/en/download/
OpenGL 3.2 or later is required to use OBS Studio on Linux
Do you think it will be possible to run OBS Studio?

I was able to start OBS with software rendering. My processor don't support necessary version:
LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 obs

Nice.

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb forces the Qt apps to work as X11 instead of wayland

Have fun

There is something confusing with this parameters for me.
I logged in into "Gnome on Xorg" at this installation and I still have to put this parameter:
"onlyoffice-desktopeditors& -platform xcb"
to start application. It doesn't work out of the box.
Deos it mean that App is download and installed specifically for given Xserver?
