Enabling H.264 High Profile in VSW Conferences

‹
Polycom, Inc.
H.264 High Profile is supported in VSW conferences:
— With MPMx cards.
— In H.323 and SIP networking environments only (VSW conferences are not
supported in ISDN networking environments.)
For H.264 High Profile enabled VSW conferences:
— All endpoints connecting to the conference must support High Profile.
— Endpoints that support High Profile, connecting to the VSW conference at the exact
line rate and exact resolution defined for the conference are connected using the High
Profile video protocol.
— Endpoints that do not support High Profile, connecting to the VSW conference at
the exact line rate and exact resolution defined for the conference are connected to
the conference as secondary (audio only).
For non-H.264 High Profile enabled VSW conferences:
— High Profile supporting and non-High Profile supporting endpoints connecting to
the VSW conference at the exact line rate and exact resolution defined for the
conference are connected using the H.264 non-High Profile video protocol.
— Endpoints that do not support the exact line rate and exact resolution defined for the
conference will be connected to the conference as secondary (audio only).
Select the H.264 High Profile check box, in the Profiles - General dialog box.
The High Profile check box is only displayed if MPMx cards are installed in the RMX. By
default the check box is not selected. If H.264 is not the selected video protocol the check
box is inactive (grayed out).
