Exclusive Content Mode
In this mode, Content broadcasting is limited to one participant, preventing other participants from
interrupting the Content broadcasting while it is active.

Guidelines for Sharing Content in Exclusive Content Mode

Exclusive Content Mode is available in all Conferencing Modes.
The Exclusive Content Mode is enabled or disabled (system default) by a check box in the in the
Conference Profile - Advanced dialog box or during the ongoing conference using the Conference
Properties - Advanced dialog box.
In Exclusive Content Mode, if the RESTRICT_CONTENT_BROADCAST _ TO_LECTURER system
flag is set to:
NO - The first participant to send content becomes the Content Token holder and has to release
the Content Token before any other participant can acquire the token and begin transmitting
Content.
YES - Only the designated Lecturer can be the Content Token holder.
The Exclusive Content Mode check box replaces the EXCLUSIVE_CONTENT_ MODE system flag
which was used to control exclusive content mode for the system in previous versions.
In Exclusive Content Mode, if an endpoint attempts to send Content a few seconds after another
endpoint sent Content, the Content stream it is receiving is momentarily interrupted by a slide which
is displayed for a few seconds before the normal Content stream is resumed.
