Where Are VFC Cards Used?

Live Events

Live events of any type and scale can benefit from the unparalleled flexibility and adaptability of our VFC cards as they eliminate the need for external video output format conversion equipment saving valuable time and resources. This is especially relevant for production companies looking to adopt video-over-IP workflows, as they can benefit from using IP-VFC with 12G SDI SFPs. Their low-latency operation ensures that your video content remains synchronised with audio and other performance elements for a smooth and cohesive experience.

Virtual Production

Disguise VFC cards allow VP volumes to work with a multitude of video output formats, enabling the highest image resolutions including 4K and 8K from HDR video to major LED processors including the Megapixel Helios and Brompton. That means that you can create virtual sets that look incredibly photorealistic and immersive without the need for external conversion devices and all the expensive cabling that comes with it.

Broadcast Studios

Disguise VFC cards can enhance the flexibility, workflow efficiency, and overall production capabilities of broadcast studios, enabling video output format compatibility with a wide range of devices and displays, while also supporting end-to-end ST 2110 workflows. This versatility eliminates the need for external conversion hardware, saving time, space, and costs. Additionally, VFC cards support high-resolution 4K output at impressive frame rates, catering to the ever-growing demand for high-quality broadcast content.
