Content Sharing Parameters in Content Highest
Common (Content Video Switching) Mode
This section describes the possible content sharing parameters when content Highest Common mode is
used:
● Content Settings
● Content Protocol
● Content Resolution

Content Settings

The Content channel can transmit one of the following modes:
● Graphics – for standard graphics. This is the default mode in AVC conferences and the only
supported mode for SVC conferences.
● Hi-res Graphics (AVC CP Only) – requiring a higher bit rate, for high quality display or highly detailed
graphics.
● Live Video (AVC CP Only) – highest bit rate, for video clips or live video display.
● Customized Content Rate (AVC CP Only) - that allows manual definition of the Conference Content
Rate.

AVC CP Content Setting

For Graphics, Hi-res Graphics and Live Video, the highest common Content bit rate is calculated for the
conference each time an endpoint connects. Therefore, if an endpoint connects to an ongoing conference
at a lower bit rate than the current bit rate, the Content bit rate for the current conference is re-calculated
and decreased.
Bit rate allocation by the MCU is dynamic during the conference and when the Content channel closes, the
video bit rate of the People conference is restored to its maximum.
During a conference the MCU will not permit an endpoint to increase its bit rate, it can however change its
Content resolution. The Collaboration Server can decrease the allocated Content bit rate during a
conference.
The following tables summarizes the bit rate allocated to the Content channel from the video channel in
each of the Content Settings according to the conference line rate for Base Profile and High Profile
settings.
