Moving Participants Between Conferences
MGC Manager enables the operator to move one or more participants from
one On Going Conference to another. Moving can be done either interactively
- by drag-and-drop, or from the participant’s right-click menu. However,
differing resource requirements of the two conferences as well as the defined
capabilities of the participant endpoints have to be taken into account.
Guidelines for moving participants
When the video protocol is set to Auto, it enables the dynamic
adjustment of the highest common video in Video Switching
conferences. Therefore, when moving a participant using the H.263 or
H.264 video protocol to a conference that was set to Auto video protocol,
the system will automatically adjust the video protocol of that participant
to the one currently set for the destination conference.
For video switching conferences, when moving an IP participant from
one conference to another, the operator should ensure that the destination
conference has the same capabilities as the source conference.
Participants can be moved between conferences if both the source and
the destination conference have the same line rate and video settings.
It is only possible to move participants between On Going Conferences
that are controlled by the same MCU and are run by the same type of
audio and video card. For example you cannot move a participant with
the Audio+ card capability to a conference where participants have only
the Standard Audio card capability.
VoIP participants can be moved to any conference that is running on an
Audio+ card.
In video Transcoding or Continuous Presence conferences, participants
can be moved between conferences, unless:
The destination conference uses video Annexes which are not used
in the source conference.
The destination conference is set to one of the Dual Stream options.
