Changing the Video Call and Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Displays
You can set up your phone so that it displays all video during calls in specific ways. You can choose to do
the following:
• Display all incoming video calls on the full screen
• Change the way video displays
• View full-screen video with or without the picture-in-picture (PIP)
• Display the PIP next to, or over, full-screen video
Your video image displays at the top-right of the screen in a PIP video, as shown next. The PIP displays
on your Home screen and during video calls. When you're in a call with a person that has video enabled,
your video is displayed in the PIP. The person you're talking with (the far-side) is displayed in the Active
Call screen.
Customize how and where you see your PIP video and the far-side video. For example, you swap the
windows in which the video displays or start and stop your video transmission.
Note:
Depending on the phone or system that is sending video, black bars might appear on the top,
bottom, or sides of the video. Black bars appear when aspect ratio of the video received doesn’t
match the display area on your phone. If the received video matches your phone's display area,
the received video fills the screen. If black bars display, you can remove them by selecting
cropped video screen mode.
Change How PIP Video Displays
Update the PIP display for viewing in full screen mode, viewing the far-side, or viewing your video on the
full screen.
You can change the following PIP settings:
• Local Camera View (Full Screen)—Enables or disables the PIP from displaying when you view
video on the full screen. The default setting is
Enabled
.
• Local Camera View Mode (Full Screen)—Sets whether you want the PIP to display over or next to
full-screen video. The default setting is Side-by-Side. You can choose to enable one of these
settings:
◦ Side-by-Side—Displays the PIP next to, rather than over, full-screen video.
◦ PIP—Displays the PIP over full-screen video.
