Changing the Clarity of Near-Site Video

Changes you make will apply to the next call.

You can change the clarity of near-site video, including the brightness, contrast, and sharpness levels of the video image. These settings affect how near-site video displays on your phone and on other phones.

If you place your phone so that the camera faces a bright light source (for example, a bright window), you may need to increase the camera’s brightness, contrast, and sharpness levels so the far site can see you better. To see how you will look to the far site, view the PIP.

To change the clarity of near-site video:

1Tap > Settings > Basic > Video > Camera Settings.

2From the Camera Settings screen, tap, and then adjust, the following camera settings:

If your camera points to a bright light source, increase the brightness, contrast, and sharpness levels so the near site will be more clear.

—Target Frame Rate—sets how smooth near-site video displays.

Press and drag the slider, or tap the Up or Down soft keys, to set the rate. Then, tap the Save soft key.

You can set a rate between 5 (least smooth) and 30 (most smooth). The default rate is 25.

—Brightness Level—sets how bright near-site video will be.

Press and drag the slider, or tap the Up or Down soft keys, to set the level. Then, tap the Save soft key.

You can set a level between 0 (dimmest) and 6 (brightest). The default level is 3.

—Saturation Level—sets how much color near-site video displays.

Press and drag the slider, or tap the Up or Down soft keys, to set the level. Then, tap the Save soft key.

You can set a level between 0 (lowest) and 6 (highest). The default level is 3.
