Media servers have certainly advanced in the two years since we last covered this category in PLSN’S Buyers Guide. Many now incorporate extra FX for manipulating live camera inputs, such as Notch and Video Dust. Many companies now offer software, and whatever hardware one chooses to install it on dictates your limitations. The addition of 3D import mapping as well as real-time UV mapping is a huge advance, and edge-blending is now a norm with many products. Another positive trend for users is the fact that more companies (such as disguise and Avolites) are now offering more compact, less expensive versions of their servers for those who do not require all the horsepower the big-gun servers have to offer.
