Reference
If you do allow an endpoint to display its own video then the TelePresence Server always places the self
view last when placing participants in the available view panes, even if the participant is one of the loudest in
the call (i.e. even if he or she is shown prominently to the other conference participants).
Show full screen view of single-screen endpoints
When placing participants within layout panes, the TelePresence Server places the "loudest" people first, in
the most prominent panes, and the quietest people in the smaller panes. However, in conferences with a
mixture of TelePresence systems (which typically use large, high resolution, displays) and systems capable
of much lower quality video (for example, video-capable cellphones) it is not always desirable for the lower-
resolution participants to be shown in the large full screen panes.
For single screen systems, the Show full screen view of single-screen endpoints setting determines
if/how an endpoint is allowed to be shown in a large full-screen pane. Available settings are Always, Dynamic
and Disabled.
Always: Single screen endpoints will always be allowed to occupy a main pane of a multiscreen endpoint.
n
Dynamic: Single screen endpoints will be visible in the main pane of a multiscreen endpoint if no other
n
multiscreen endpoints are in the conference. If a multiscreen endpoint joins the conference, single screen
endpoints will be demoted to the pip strip.
Disabled: Single screen endpoints will never be shown in the main pane of multiscreen endpoints.
n
This setting is not displayed for multi-screen endpoints and endpoint groups.
Allow content in main video
This feature allows the TelePresence Server to send a conference's content in the main video channel of
endpoints that do not support the extra channel and would otherwise be unable to see the content.
The content channel stream is given the largest pane of this composed layout, which is shown in the main
video channel. The continuous presence panes of up to four other participants are composed across the
bottom of the layout below the content stream. The continuous presence panes are centered.
Show borders around endpoints setting
If Show borders around endpoints is enabled, the TelePresence Server draws borders around participants
that are displayed in small panes; it does not draw borders around participants being shown in full-screen
panes.
The TelePresence Server draws a blue border around the active speaker in the conference, and a grey border
in all other cases. There may not always be an active speaker to highlight in a conference, for example if
everyone is muted or no-one is talking.
Enabling this setting for an endpoint means that the video layout sent to that endpoint will use borders; it does
not mean that this participant will always be shown within a border to other participants – those other
participants' views will use their own Show borders around endpoints setting.
