Call window with PIP and far-side video
You can customize how and where you see your PIP video and the far-side video. For example, you can
swap the windows in which the video is displayed or even start and stop the transmission of your video.
Note: Depending on the phone or system that is sending video, black bars might appear on the top,
bottom, or sides of the video image. This occurs because the aspect ratio of the video received
does not match the display area on your phone, and the portions of the video that are not being
received display as black bars. If the received video matches your phone's display area, the
received video fills the screen. If black bars display, you can remove them by selecting cropped
video screen mode.
Change How PIP Video Displays
You can update the way the PIP is displayed when you're in full screen mode, when you view the far-side,
or when you view your video on the full screen.
You can change the following PIP settings:
• Local Camera View (Full Screen)—Enables or disables the PIP from displaying when you view
video on the full screen. The default setting is Enabled.
• Local Camera View Mode (Full Screen)—Sets whether you want the PIP to display over or next to
full-screen video. The default setting is Side-by-Side. You can choose to enable one of these
settings:
◦ Side-by-Side—Displays the PIP next to, rather than over, full-screen video.
◦ PIP—Displays the PIP over full-screen video.
Procedure
1. Navigate to Settings > Basic > Video.
For VVX 1500 phones, navigate to Menu > Settings > Basic > Video.
2. Select Local Camera View then select and adjust the PIP settings.
3. Select Save.
Change How Far-End Video Displays
You can adjust video settings to control the appearance of video received from the far-end.
You can adjust the appearance of the far-side video so that it displays as one of the following:
• Normal—The video image displays with correct proportions. Black bars appear on the top, bottom,
or sides of the area to maintain the correct aspect ratio if the aspect ratio of the received video does
not match the display area. The portions of the video that are not being received display as black
bars.
