Hardware updates
We develop our own operating systems (OS) for all current Disguise media servers. Any driver or SDK used within an OS has been carefully selected and tested before being rolled out into a current OS. Unless otherwise stated, we do not support manually updated drivers, SDKs or third-party applications due to the unknown potential impact on performance, applying feed settings, and genlock.
