  • Page 2 Choose Disabled for the Retain DHCP IP Address preference to clear the most recently assigned DHCP IP address and to request a new one. (END-20118) DNS lookup no longer fails for calls outside the network calling in using SIP URI via LifeSize Transit. (END- 20011) FECC is now operating correctly in two way calls with long durations.
  • Page 3: Known Issues

    (END-16743) When recording a multiway call (through LifeSize Video Center) from a system that is not the MCU, audio is not synchronized with video when the active speaker is at the near end. Audio is synchronized with video when the active speaker is at the far end.
  • Page 4 Background image might change when changing the display resolution from the default to 1920x1080p30. (END-19565) Changing layouts from the LifeSize Phone touch panel during a local presentation (when not in a call) results in being forced to the 1/3 layout. Workaround: Use the remote control and main screen interface to change the layout.

    1080p at a refresh rate of 30Hz. (END-11533) Video from LifeSize Camera as the presentation input on a LifeSize Team 220 with dual displays set to 1080p and a LifeSize Camera 200 as primary input is distorted on the secondary display due to a memory bandwidth limitation.
  • Page 6 Passport joins the call. (END-15768) Audio After the fourth participant is added to a call in which LifeSize Room 220 is the MCU, each new participant and one of the original participants is negotiated to the G.711 (μ/A-Law) audio codec. Therefore, in an eight- way call, all participants use the G.711 (μ/A-Law) audio codec.
  • Page 7 (END-13225) The LAN port might be unable to establish a link when you connect the LifeSize system to a switch and both devices are set to automatically negotiate the speed. If this event occurs, set the speed on the switch and the Network Speed preference on the LifeSize system to either 100 Mb/s (full duplex) or 10 Mb/s (full duplex).
  • Page 8 Flash Player v9 before upgrading to LifeSize v4.x. (END-9548) In a five- or six-way call with LifeSize Room 220 as the MCU with this release, virtual multiway is not available to any LifeSize participant with a software release earlier than 4.0.0 and who is not the dominant speaker. In this case, LifeSize participants can only control the MCU's camera, view only three screen layouts, and view only one participant in the call statistics screen.
  • Page 9: Interoperability

    You are unable to dismiss a rejected or invalid call from the command line, even though entry 0 is present. Workaround: Dismiss the call from the user interface. (END-12246) Interoperability LifeSize video communications systems with this software release are supported with the following devices.

  • Page 10: Interoperability Limitations

    General A presentation sent by a far end participant in a multiway video call with a LifeSize system as the MCU appears as black video if one of the devices in the call is configured to accept H.261 video only. To avoid this problem, LifeSize recommends using default configuration settings for video LifeSize systems for all devices in the call.
  • Page 11 Workaround: Add the LifeSize system to the directory on the Codian MCU and adjust the border size to 2 or 3, depending on your display. You can adjust the border size from the LifeSize system during a call by using far end camera control.
  • Page 12 MCU that are not supported on LifeSize systems. (END-10310) In a call with Polycom HDX 8006, the LifeSize system does not send 60 f/s. On the Polycom HDX 8006 there is a maximum 30 f/s mode by selecting sharpness at the camera properties and 60 f/s mode by selecting motion.
  • Page 13 ShoreTel When a call is placed between two LifeSize systems that are using the ShoreTel PBX, either the call does not connect or the presentation fails. Also, a SIP call to LifeSize Multipoint 230 using the ShoreTel PBX disconnects after the first ring. Workaround: Disable presentations on the LifeSize system. (END-17079, END-12263, END-18893) Call transfer is unsuccessful using the ShoreTel PBX.
