Video Sources
Video Sources comprise these groups of parameters:
• Video Session is a read-only area which indicates which video session
type and Continuous Presence mode you selected in the Conference
Properties - General dialog box.
• Visual Effects determine the look of the layout windows. Using these
options you can modify the color of the window background, its border
and of the speaker indication in the selected video layout. These effects
are applicable only to Continuous Presence conferences, and only if a
Video+ card is installed in the MCU.
• Audio Muted Participants -The Unforced Participant and Audio-Muted
Participant options are active only during the On Going Conference, see
“Muting Audio for a Conference” on page 6-56.
• Video Layout determines the number and the arrangement of video
windows displayed on the endpoint screens. In Video Switching and
Transcoding conferences, only the full screen (1x1) video layout is
available; video layout selection is applicable only to Continuous
Presence conferences. You can select the required layout and set Auto
Layout and Same Layout options for the conference.
• Lecture Mode options are Lecture Mode, Lecture Show and
Presentation Mode. For a detailed description of all Lecture/Presentation
options, see Chapter 10, “Lecture and Presentation Modes”.
• The Video Sources dialog box is hidden when defining an Audio Only
conference or when the MGC Manager is configured to Audio Look & Feel
mode.
