Video Protocols and Resolution Configuration for CP Conferencing
Polycom®, Inc. 113
CP Conferencing with H.263 4CIF
The video resolution of 4CIF in H.263 endpoints is only supported for conferences in which the video quality
is set to sharpness and for line rates of 384 Kbps to 1920 Kbps as shown in the following table.
The Collaboration Server Web Client supports monitoring of H.263 4CIF information. The H.245 or SDP tab
includes the additional information.
The creation of a new H.263 4CIF slide is supported in the IVR Service in addition to the current H.263 IVR
slide. If users utilize the default Polycom slides that are delivered with the Collaboration Server, the slide’s
resolution will be as defined in the profile, i.e. SD, HD, CIF, etc.
For more information see Accessing the Resolution Configuration Dialog Box .
