Video Input Connector [2] Quality

When encoding and transmitting video there is a trade-off between high resolution and
high frame rate. For some video sources it is more important to transmit high frame rate
than high resolution and vice versa. This setting specifies whether to give priority to high
frame rate or to high resolution.
Requires user role: ADMIN
Default value: Sharpness
Value space: Motion/Sharpness
Motion: Gives the highest possible frame rate. Used when there is a need for higher
frame rates, typically when a large number of participants are present or when there is a
lot of motion in the picture.
Sharpness: Gives the highest possible resolution. Used when you want the highest
quality of detailed images and graphics.

Video Input Connector [1..2] OptimalDefinition Profile
This setting will only take effect if the corresponding Video Input Connector [n] Quality
setting is set to Motion.
The optimal definition profile reflects the lighting conditions in the video conferencing room
and the quality of the camera. The better lighting conditions and the better quality of the
camera, the higher the profile. In good lighting conditions, the video encoder will provide
better quality (higher resolution or frame rate) for a given call rate. Generally, the Normal or
Medium profiles are recommended. However, when the lighting conditions are very good,
the High profile can be set in order to increase the resolution for a given call rate. The
resolution must be supported by both the calling and called systems.
Requires user role: ADMIN
Default value: Medium
Value space: Normal/Medium/High
Normal: Use this profile for a normally to poorly lit environment. Resolutions will be set
rather conservative.
Medium: Requires good and stable lighting conditions and a good quality video input. For
some call rates this leads to higher resolution.
High: Requires nearly optimal video conferencing lighting conditions and a good quality
video input in order to achieve a good overall experience. Rather high resolutions will be
used.
