Video Input Source [1..3]/[1..2] OptimalDefinition Threshold60fps
noTE: EX90 has Video Input Source [1..3] and EX60 has Video Input Source [1..2].
For each video input, this setting tells the system the lowest resolution where it should transmit
60 fps. So for all resolutions lower than this, the maximum transmitted frame rate would be
30 fps, while above this resolution 60 fps will also be possible, if the available bandwidth is
adequate.
Requires user role:
ADmIn
Value space:
<512_288/768_448/1024_576/1280_720/1920_1080/never>
512_288:
Set the threshold to 512x288.
768_448:
Set the threshold to 768x448.
1024_576:
Set the threshold to 1024x576.
1280_720:
Set the threshold to 1280x720.
1920_1080:
Set the threshold to 1920x1080.
Never:
Do not set a threshold for transmitting 60fps.
Example:
Video Input Source 2 OptimalDefinition Threshold60fps: 1280 _ 720
Video Input Source [1..3]/[1..2] Quality
noTE: EX90 has Video Input Source [1..3] and EX60 has Video Input Source [1..2].
When encoding and transmitting video there will be 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. The Quality setting specifies whether to give priority to high
frame rate or to high resolution for a given source.
Priority is always given to high frame rate for the video system's internal camera, therefore
Quality is fixed to motion for
Input Source 3 on EX90 and Input Source 2 on EX60.

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.
Example:
Video Input Source 2 Quality: Motion
Video MainVideoSource
Define which video input source shall be used as the main video source. The video input source
is configured with the "Video Input Source [1..n] Connector" setting.
Requires user role:
USEr
Value space:
<1/2/3>/<1/2>
Range:
Select the source to be used as the main video source.
Example:
Video MainVideoSource: 3
Video Layout DisableDisconnectedLocalOutputs
Determine whether or not the built-in layout engine shall set layouts on local outputs that have
no monitor connected.
Requires user role:
ADmIn
Value space:
<off/on>
Off:
The built-in layout engine sets layout on all local outputs, also the ones not having any
monitor connected.
On:
The built-in layout engine does only set layout on local outputs having a monitor
connected.
Example:
Video Layout DisableDisconnectedLocalOutputs: Off
