Description
The MCU supports Microsoft RTV B-Frame encoder of real-time
video enhancing the viewing experience for Microsoft Lync clients. It
delivers a better quality video picture by splitting a video frame into
pixel segments or slices and predicting the pixel segments in the
next video frame.
Registration & Presence enables the OCS or LYNC client users to
see the availability status (Available, Busy or Offline) of Meeting
Rooms, Entry Queues and SIP Factories and connect to them
directly from the buddy list.
Microsoft Lync users can connect a RMX Meeting Room to a
conference running on the Microsoft A/V MCU.
Support of Microsoft RTV FEC (Forward Error Correction) that
controls and correct packet loss when receiving and sending video
streams using the Microsoft Lync Server 2010.
Enables the automatic usage of the ICE connection through the
TCP port instead of UDP when the UDP port in the firewall is
blocked.
Media is automatically transmitted using TCP when UDP, the default
transport protocol, is not available.
The RMX can automatically recover from short duration network
errors (5 seconds), enabling calls in Microsoft Lync to continue
video or audio conferences without disconnecting.
