Managing Video Layout

During a call, video images from connected callers appear in your display. You can change the screen layout of near and far end video images that appear in the display.

Understanding Screen Layouts

Screen layouts appear as one of the following types:

A far end participant appears as the largest video image.

Your site (the near end participant) appears as the largest video image.

All video images from all participants are the same size.

A presentation appears as the largest video image (when a presentation is in progress).

Avaya systems that support multiway video calls can show video from a maximum of four callers: three far end participants and the near end participant. During a multiway video call, you can choose a screen layout that shows video from a far end participant as the largest image in the layout in one of the following ways:

The far end participant who is currently speaking always appears as the largest image. When you choose this layout, the dominant speaker icon appears to the right of the

screen layout number when the user interface is visible (for example, 5/7 ).

The same far end participant always appears as the largest image regardless of who is currently speaking. These layouts are available for selection in all multiway calls, but are supported in 3-way and 4-way calls only. On Avaya systems that support more than four video participants, video from one of the far end participants not shown on screen in a 5- way or greater call may replace the largest video image in these layouts when that participant becomes the dominant speaker.

Near end video does not change location when a participant at the near end (your site) is the dominant speaker. If you choose a screen layout that shows all video images the same size,

only the dominant speaker icon moves to indicate which participant is currently speaking.

If your Avaya system supports more than four video participants in a call, by default the video image from a fifth or greater far end participant appears in the display only when that participant becomes the dominant speaker and replaces the video image of the earliest of the last three far end speakers. If an administrator has configured the system to show video only from the last speaker in the call, then only the video image from the participant who is currently speaking appears in the display. If a participant at your site is currently speaking, video from the last speaker appears in your display.
