CP Autoswitching

The CP Autoswitching enables you to swap non speaking sites with the least active sites in the picture. This lets you see all participants in a conference, even if they are not speaking.

CP Autoswitching can be set to a value between 0 seconds (default) and 60 seconds. The number of seconds denotes how long each of the remaining participants shall be displayed on the screen.

If set to 0 seconds the CP Autoswitching will be disabled.

Note that the CP Autoswitching will be performed in the least active sub picture if one or more of the participants speak.

Video Format

Defines the video format for Continuous Presence (CP) mode.

Auto (Best ImpressionTF) In Continuous Presence mode the MPS will select Motion (CIF) if the call rate is below 256 kbps and sending 4:3 aspect ratio. When sending 16:9 aspect ratio the MPS will select Motion (w288p) if the call rate is below 512 kbps. At call rates of 256 kbps and higher the MPS will select Sharpness (4CIF) when sending 4:3 aspect ratio. When sending 16:9 aspect ratio the MPS will select Sharpness (w576p) at call rates of 512 kbps and higher.

Motion: Set to Motion to prioritize motion and show up to

30 fps in CIF resolution and transmit the highest common format, preferably H.264 CIF when sending 4:3 aspect ratio or H.263+ w288p when sending 16:9 aspect ratio.

Sharpness: Set to Sharpness to prioritize crisp and clear picture and transmit the highest common format, preferably H.263+ 4CIF when sending 4:3 aspect ratio or H.263+ w576p when sending 16:9 aspect ratio.

In Full Screen Voice Switched Conference layout, the MCU will prioritize H.264 CIF as the highest common format.

Video Custom Formats

On: Set to On to support custom formats, such as SIF and VGA resolutions. It allows true resolution to be maintained, rather than being scaled to anoth- er format. This is of particular benefit to users of NTSC and VGA resolutions, ensuring that their images are not scaled to fit with the PAL standard.

Off: Set to Off when support for custom formats are not needed.
