(see above).
In these cases, if this option is set to Enabled, the
MCU will display the content channel video
within a pane of the currently selected conference
layout. In these cases, you might also want to
enable the Automatically make content channel
important option in the
page which will make the content channel
important at the same time.
If this option is Enabled, the MCU will ignore fast
update requests for a conference's content video
channel received from endpoints whose
connections are experiencing problems.
When this mode is active, it can prevent a large
number of keyframes being sent in the shared
content video encoding in response to fast update
requests from a single endpoint. A high number
of keyframes may reduce the video quality of the
content channel for all conference participants,
including those with good connections to the
MCU.
Sets the bandwidth of the content channel video
stream sent to streaming viewers.
This option is only available if the MCU web
conferencing (WCO) feature key is present.
Just as there is a single content video stream sent
to all content-capable videoconferencing
endpoints in a conference, there is a single
content channel video stream sent to all
streaming viewers.
This option allows the bandwidth of the streamed
content channel video to be set. While in general
a higher value means a greater frame rate (and
thus better video quality), it is important to not
set this value too high (i.e. higher than the
available TCP network bandwidth between the
MCU and viewers' machines) to avoid
degradation resulting from lost data.
If Enabled, people viewing the content channel
stream via a web browser will be able to add
markup to that video stream such as graphics and
text. This markup will then be visible to all
content channel viewers, both those viewing via
streaming and those connected via
videoconferencing endpoints.
This option is only available if the MCU web
conferencing (WCO) feature key is present.
Changing this setting has an immediate effect:
if changed to Disabled, it will not be
possible for existing viewers to complete
markup currently in progress
if changed to Enabled, existing streaming
viewers will gain the ability to add
markup
