Call Rate with DuoVideoTF/H.239/BFCP
When network is H.323
The system will use the available call rate for audio, data, main
video, and DuoVideoTF/H.239 if opened. When the network is
H.323 the DuoVideoTF/H.239 rate will approximately be the same
as the main video rate.
When network is SIP
The system will use the available call rate for audio, data, main
video, and DuoVideoTF/BFCP if opened. When the network is SIP
the DuoVideoTF/BFCP rate will approximately be the same as the
main video rate.
When network is ISDN
When the network is ISDN/H.320 the following table applies for
DuoVideo Bandwidths*:
* If Restrict (56k) is set to On, use 56k multiples: E.g. 112 -> 56,
168 -> 56, etc

Dual Video Stream (DuoVideo
TF
/H.239/BFCP)
With Dual Video Stream you have the opportunity to show two
different live video streams simultaneously, main video and one
additional source.
This is handy when showing a presentation. You see the live
presentation and the live video of the presenter simultaneously.
When you start a presentation, Dual Video Stream starts
automatically if both local and remote system supports Dual Video
Stream.
If one of the systems does not support Dual Video Stream, no
second video stream will be established and your presentation will
be shown as your main video.
Dual Video Stream is available on all systems with Natural
Presenter Package installed.
In Presentation Settings, you can set Presentation Start to
Manual. That means that Dual Video Stream will not start
automatically.
Dual Video Stream and Bandwidth
Using Dual Video Stream, the quality automatically downspeeds to
the optimal bandwidth.
This means that you need higher quality to allocate enough
bandwidth for the two video streams.
Dual Video Stream borrows bandwidth from main video stream.
When Dual Video Stream is closed, the bandwidth is returned to
the main video.
DuoVideo
TF
allows participants at the far end to simultaneously watch a presenter
on one screen and a live presentation on the adjoining screen.
H.239
is an ITU standard defining how to send two video sources simultaneously.
BFCP
(Binary Floor Control Protocol) is a protocol to coordinate access to shared
resources in a conference.
