∙Tap Video to access additional soft keys that enable you to stop video, view the video call on the full screen, or swap the locations of video images. When your video displays in the Calls view list,

‘Local camera’ displays next to it.

When you set up a conference, your phone displays video for only one conference participant, even if more than one participant can send video. The person whose video you see is the last person who joins the conference. If you use the Join soft key to set up the conference, you see the video of the person who was held just prior to joining the conference.
