by MLA, are ignored. The layouts for legacy endpoints are managed by the MCU.
Guidelines for Sending Content to Legacy Endpoints in Telepresence
Conferences
● MLA layout change requests for legacy endpoints will be ignored until Content is stopped. At that
point, MLA can be used again.
● Click&View can not be used to change the layout while Content is being sent.
● The Polycom Touch Control can not be used to change the layout while Content is being sent.
Content Display on Legacy Endpoints in Telepresence Conferences
When Content is sent to legacy endpoints in Telepresence conferences, their video layout automatically
changes to the Content layout which is defined by the system flag
LEGACY_EP_CONTENT_DEFAULT_LAYOUT. If MLA is managing the Telepresnce layout prior to Content
being sent, the MCU takes over managing the layout of Legacy endpoints once Content is started. The video
layouts of the other conference participants continue to be managed by MLA.
If MLA was managing the Telepresence layouts, when Content ends, control of the layouts for legacy
endpoints goes back to the MLA after a short time.
