[[Broadcast]] professionals prefer to use [[computer hardware|hardware]] [[rack-mounted|rack mountable]] ProcAmps that helps them make video [[broadcast safe]] by correcting video inconsistencies. They may also be chip-based, as part of other larger multi-purpose devices in professional environments.

[[Software]] ProcAmps are also available as [[Source code|code]] embedded in [[Media player (application software)|media players]] like [[Windows Media Player]], [[VLC media player|VLC]], [[KMPlayer]], or in [[codec]]s like [[ffdshow]]. Software ProcAmps can process media either on the [[Central processing unit|CPU]] or [[Graphics processing unit|GPU]].<ref>[http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff569188.aspx Microsoft MSDN - Windows Driver Kit: Display Devices - ProcAmp Control Processing]</ref>
