Product Compatibility (Beta)

Check which Designer versions and OS images each Disguise server supports, which IP-VFC firmware goes with each Designer version, and which Designer version introduced each X Series license.

Check your server or setup Hardware OS Images Product Lifecycle

Check your server or setup

Section titled “Check your server or setup”

Choose your server to see its lifecycle phase, the Designer versions, OS images and VFC cards it supports, its IP-VFC support and, for EX servers, the optional add-on licenses. Choose a Designer version or VFC card as well to check that version or card. To check an X Series license on your own hardware, choose the license instead of a server.

Servers

Section titled “Servers”

Every Disguise media server and OmniCal kit, with the first and latest Designer version each one supports. Where a server needs a different OS image for some Designer versions, each image is listed with its versions. For the current OS of each server, see Hardware OS Images.

IP-VFC

Section titled “IP-VFC”

IP-VFC cards need a media server with Backplane v2. This depends on the individual server, not the model. IP-VFC firmware is not supported on the VX 2+ or VX 3. For an IP-VFC workflow, we recommend a GX 3, GX 3+ or VX 4+.

Designer and firmware versions

Section titled “Designer and firmware versions”

We recommend IP-VFC firmware 26.2, which needs Designer r34.1 or later.

Designer versionIP-VFC firmware

Section titled “ST 2110 support”

For Single and Quad split modes at resolutions from 1080p to 2160p, synchronised with PTP. Firmware 25.1 is supported on the GX 3 only.

SDI support

Section titled “SDI support”

For Single and Quad split modes at resolutions from 1080p to 2160p, synchronised with EXT. Use firmware 26.2. If you need a Designer version earlier than r34.1, use firmware 24.4.
