Handling Video and Audio Calls
When you have multiple calls, you can easily manage a video call from the Calls screen. In the Calls screen
on VVX 500/501 and 600/601 phones, you can identify the video call by the video stream that is displayed
next to the call's details. On VVX 1500 phones, the active video call is displayed on the Active Call screen,
and all held calls display above the soft keys.
When two or more calls are video calls, only the active call displays video. On VVX 500/501 and 600/601
phones, all other video calls show a paused grayscale image of the far side taken just before the call was
held, as displayed next. When you resume a held video call, the held call becomes active and displays
video.
