Setting Conferences for Telepresence Mode (AVC CP)

Cropping is used by the Collaboration Server in order to preserve the aspect ratio of video for all

Telepresence Modes.

Cropping is controlled by the ITP_CROPPING system flag in the system configuration, providing different

cropping options according to the endpoints participating in the Telepresence conference.

By default, the flag is set to ITP. In this mode, the area to be stripped is cropped equally from the top and

the bottom (as shown in the example below). For more details, see

Modifying System

Gathering Phase with ITP Room Systems

When a conference is configured to include a Gathering Phase, only one endpoint name is displayed for the

ITP room in the connected participant list of the Gathering slide. The ITP room endpoint with the suffix 1 in

its name receives the Gathering slide.

Standard endpoints (non-ITP) receive video from the Collaboration Server with the same aspect ratio as that

which they transmitted to the Collaboration Server.

When Telepresence Mode is enabled, no Skin is displayed and the system uses a black background.

Frames around individual layout windows and the speaker indication are disabled.

Additional video layouts have been created to give Telepresence operators more video layout options when

configuring OTX and RPX room systems. These additional video layout options are available to all

endpoints on both conference layout and Personal Layout levels.
