xConfiguration Video Output DVI [2] OverscanLevel
Some TVs or other monitors may not display the whole image sent out on the systems video output,
but cuts the outer parts of the image. In this case this setting can be used to let the system not use
the outer parts of video resolution. Both the video and the OSD menu will be scaled in this case.
Requires user role: ADMIN
Value space: <Medium/High/None>
Medium: The system will not use the outer 3% of the output resolution.
High: The system will not use the outer 6% of the output resolution
None: The system will use all of the output resolution.
Example:
xConfiguration Video Output DVI 2 OverscanLevel: None
xConfiguration Video Output DVI [2] Resolution
Select the preferred resolution for the monitor connected to the video output DVI-I connector. This
will force the resolution on the monitor.
Requires user role: ADMIN
Value space: <Auto/640_480_60/800_600_60/1024_768_60/1280_1024_60/1280_720_50/1280
_720_60/1920_1080_50/1920_1080_60/1280_768_60/1360_768_60/1366_768_60/1600_1200_
60/1680_1050_60/1920_1200_60>
Auto: The system will automatically try to set the optimal resolution based on negotiation with the
connected monitor.
Range: 640x480@60p, 800x600@60p, 1024x768@60p, 1280x1024@60p, 1280x720@50p,
1280x720@60p, 1920x1080@50p, 1920x1080@60p, 1280x768@60p, 1360x768@60p,
1366x768@60p, 1600x1200@60p, 1680x1050@60p, 1920x1200@60p
Example:
xConfiguration Video Output DVI 2 Resolution: Auto
xConfiguration Video Output Composite [3] MonitorRole
NOTE: This command is not supported on Codec C40.
The Composite monitor role describes which video stream will be shown on the monitor connected
to the video output Composite connector.
Requires user role: ADMIN
Value space: <Auto/First/Second/PresentationOnly/Recorder>
Auto: The system will detect when a monitor is connected and assign a monitor role to it. The first
monitor connected will be assigned monitor role First. In a multi-monitor setup the next monitors
will be assigned monitor role Second.
First/Second: Define the role of the monitor in a multi-monitor setup. In a single-monitor setup,
there is no difference between First and Second.
PresentationOnly: Show presentation video stream if active, and nothing else.
Recorder: Show all participants, including the local main video. If active, also show the
presentation.
Example:
xConfiguration Video Output Composite 3 MonitorRole: Auto
