Note: Is it Possible to View All Video Participants?

Viewing all video participants requires the use of a Polycom Video Conference Bridge. For more information, contact your Polycom reseller.

To exchange video a conference participant:

1Set up a conference call and tap Manage.

2From the Conference window, tap the person whose video you want to see and tap Select Video, displayed next. The person who previously displayed video displays a paused grayscale image, and the person you selected, who previously displays a paused grayscale image, displays video.

To change where video calls display:

1 Tap Settings from Home view and tap Basic > Video > Video Call Settings.

3Tap Save.

Troubleshooting: I Updated a Video Setting, But I Don’t See the Changes
