The X400 is a modular media server built on a server-class motherboard with a high-performance graphics card, supporting up to 2 input cards and 4 output cards for up to 6x 4K or 24x 2K mosaic outputs from one unit. It decodes 8K@60fps UHD video and plays multiple 4K@60fps streams smoothly across a wide range of codecs and formats. Dual SSDs, dual OS, dual authorization, and frame-sync technology with seamless primary/backup switching keep mission-critical shows running reliably. The built-in Pilot MS3 software handles playback and real-time editing with unlimited layers and programs, irregular-shaped slices, and a fully customizable, visual UI.
