Disguise VX 2 and RX II Package

The Disguise VX 2 and RX II package combines the industry-standard media server with the render engine that drives it, delivered as a turnkey video system rather than two separate purchases. The VX 2 is the flagship playback server of Disguise’s VX range, engineered to capture and play back video at higher quality, smoothness and resolution than its predecessor, built around an Intel Xeon 2.5GHz processor, 48GB of DDR4 RAM, 2x 128GB SSDs for the operating system and a 3.84TB removable NVMe media drive. The RX II is Disguise’s real-time render node, designed to create high-quality real-time graphics displayed directly on your screens and virtual sets. It runs the render engine of your choice, including Unreal and Notch, over RenderStream, with a 12-month RenderStream licence included. The package is completed by 2x Disguise Quad DVI VFC cards, which slot into the back of the VX 2 and give the system its video output format.

The VX 2 carries 2x VFC output slots, both fitted on this unit with Quad DVI cards. Each card provides 4x Dual-Link DVI genlocked outputs, up to 2048 x 1080px at 60Hz in 8-bit RGB 4:2:2, so the server delivers 8 synchronized DVI outputs for LED walls, projection and mixed screen builds without changing the system. On the input side the server accepts 2x 12G-SDI or 8x 3G-SDI, or 2x 2160p60 Quad Split feeds on HD-BNC connectors, with a BNC Genlock input for frame synchronisation. Audio is handled by RME Professional hardware, with 2x balanced XLR in and 2x balanced XLR out, a 1/4″ headphone jack, ADAT/SPDIF and MIDI in and out. Connectivity runs from 1Gb and 10Gb Ethernet up to 2x 25Gb SFP28 ports, and the RX II works alongside it on its own 2x 1Gb, 2x 10Gb and 2x 25Gb SFP28 network, so the pair handles playback and real-time rendering, with 10-bit processing on the render side, from a single rack.
