Select the Content Protocol to be used for content sharing in Highest Common
Content Sharing Mode.
• H.263 (AVC CP only)
Content is shared using the H.263 protocol.
Use this option when most of the endpoints support H.263 and some endpoints
support H.264.
• H.263 & H.264 Auto Selection (AVC CP only)
When selected, content is shared using H.263 if a mix of H.263-supporting and
H.264-supporting endpoints are connected, or H.264 if all connected endpoints
have H.264 capability.
• H.264 Cascade and SVC Optimized
All Content is shared using the H.264 content protocol and is optimized for use
in cascaded conferences.
• H.264 HD (AVC CP only, default)
Ensures high quality Content when most endpoints support H.264 and HD
resolutions.
Note: When Multiple Resolutions is selected, the Content Protocol field is hidden.
