Automatic Detection of Immersive Telepresence (ITP) Sites
When the conference Telepresence Mode is set to Auto (Default) ITP endpoints are automatically detected.
If an ITP endpoint is detected in such conference, ITP features are applied to all endpoints and the
Collaboration Server sends conference video with the following options disabled:
●Borders
●Site names
●Speaker indication
●Skins
●Same Layout
●Presentation Mode
●Auto Layout
●Lecture Mode
The ITP features are dynamic, and if all ITP endpoints disconnect from the conference, normal conference
video is resumed for the remaining all participants. ITP features are re-applied to all participants should an
ITP endpoint re-connects to that conference.
Horizontal Striping
Horizontal Striping is used by the Collaboration Server in order to prevent cropping and preserve the aspect
ratio of video for all Telepresence Modes.
