On Conductor: Content quality is set to 720p5,
Participant quality is set to 1080p30
The endpoint: Requests 1080p30 video with
720p5 content, at 2048kBps.
The key shows that this type of call requires 1
screen license.
The bandwidth of the call is limited to 2MBps
(2048kBps), so we're looking at the region
between 1472kBps and 2240kBps on the chart.
Maximum content is 720p5, which means we
should consider the lower of the two bars for
each profile.
On the chart, the only profile that allows 1
screen license in the 2048k bandwidth region,
in the 720p5 bar, is maximizeExperience.
So, if the conference is configured to max 720p5
content and maximizeExperience (green
highlight on the diagram to the right), the
TelePresence Server tells Conductor that this
call requires one screen license and the
endpoint will get the requested experience.
However, if the conference is configured to any
of the other three profiles (pink highlights on the
diagram), the TelePresence Server will report
that this call should only receive half a screen
license.
On the key we can read that with half a screen
license, the endpoint will actually receive
720p30 video with 720p5 content (see below).
The benefit is that half a screen license is
reclaimed.

Conductor support
The Cisco TelePresence Conductor supports changing the optimization profile by adding a custom
parameter to the TelePresence Server template. You will need to specify the custom parameter if you want
Conductor to use a profile other than the TelePresence Server's default, which is favorExperience.
For example, to revert the template to use the previous TelePresence Server behavior:
