Motion /
sharpness
trade off
Choose the MCU-wide setting for
motion/sharpness trade off. The options
are:
■ Favor motion: the MCU will try
and use a high frame rate. That
is, the MCU will strongly favor a
resolution of at least 25 frames
per second
■ Favor sharpness: the MCU will
use the highest resolution that is
appropriate for what is being
viewed
■ Balanced: the MCU will select
settings that balance resolution
and frame rate (where the frame
rate will not be less than 12
frames per second)
The settings for motion (frames per second) and
sharpness (frame size or resolution) are negotiated
between the endpoint and the MCU. This setting controls
how the MCU will negotiate the settings to be used with
an endpoint.
Note that the Motion/sharpness trade off setting for an
individual endpoint will override this global conference
setting during calls with that endpoint.
Transmitted
video
resolutions
Choose the global conference setting
for transmitted video resolutions. This
setting can be overridden by individual
configured endpoint settings.
Retain the default setting (Allow all resolutions) unless
you are experiencing problems with the display of certain
resolutions by endpoints.
Endpoints advertise the resolutions that they are able to
display. The MCU then chooses from those advertised
resolutions, the resolution that it will use to transmit
video. However, some endpoints do not display
widescreen resolutions optimally. In these cases, you
might want to use this setting to restrict the resolutions
available to the MCU.
Note that you can configure this setting for individual
configured endpoints if you do not need to restrict
transmitted video resolutions for all endpoints.
Default
bandwidth
from MCU
Identifies the network capacity
(measured in bits per second) used by
the media channels established by the
MCU to a single participant.
When the MCU makes a call to an endpoint, the MCU
chooses the maximum bandwidth that is allowed to be
used for the media channels which comprise that call.
This field sets that maximum bandwidth, and is the total
bandwidth of the audio, video, and content channels
combined.
This setting can be overridden by individual endpoints'
Preferred bandwidth from MCU values.
Default
bandwidth
to MCU
Sets the bandwidth that the MCU will
advertise to the endpoint when it calls
it.
This setting can be overridden by individual endpoints'
Preferred bandwidth to MCU values.
Default
view family
Determines which layout views (see
Customizing layout views) new
participants see when connecting to
conferences.
Regardless of the family chosen here, participants can
cycle through the available families using the far-end
camera controls. See Understanding how participants
display in layout views.
