Defining Your Virtual Room Preferences

Procedure


Step 1 Click My Profile in the sidebar menu.

Step 2 Click My Info.

Step 3 Click Virtual Room Setting.

Meeting Operators can define multiple virtual rooms.

Meeting Organizers can define only one virtual room and can configure only basic information such as meeting type and conference PIN.

Step 4 Enter a virtual room number and name in the relevant fields.

The virtual room and should be unique in the system.

The virtual room number is generated automatically and is not editable if the administrator has downloaded user profile information from the LDAP server.

Step 5 Select a meeting type.

Audio Only—Forces the conference to be audio-only.

Desktop Video—Supports transcoding at bandwidth rates of up to 384 Kbps.

HD/SD Continuous Presence—Supports transcoding at bandwidth rates of up to 4096 Kbps. Supports high definition continuous presence. Supports image size of up to 720p. Default when adding a new service.

HD Switched Video—Supports switched high definition video at rates of up to 4096 Kbps.


Note Continuous Presence or Voice Activated meeting types are available only if a Sony endpoint with an embedded MCU is defined in the system. To host the meeting on the embedded MCU, you must be one of the meeting attendees and select a Sony endpoint with an embedded MCU.


Step 6 (Optional) Define the meeting access PIN in the Meeting PIN field.

Only integers are allowed. This PIN allows you to join a PIN-protected meeting.

Step 7 (Optional) Define the PIN that allows a user to perform moderation operations on a meeting in the Moderator PIN field.

Only integers are allowed. This PIN allows you to take control of a meeting from the In-meeting Control interface or from the endpoint using DTMF. Administrators and Meeting Operators can access the In-meeting Control screen without using the Moderator PIN.

Step 8 (Optional) If you entered a moderator PIN, you can turn on the waiting room functionality by checking Place participants in a 'waiting room' until the moderator joins the meeting.

Before the host joins the meeting, all connected participants are put into waiting room mode where they cannot hear or see one another. When the host terminal joins the meeting, the waiting room mode is removed and all participants can see and hear each other.

You can unlock the waiting room mode by taking control of the In-meeting Control screen after entering the moderator PIN and clicking Unlock waiting room.

Step 9 (Optional) If you entered a moderator PIN, you may automatically record a meeting when it starts by selecting Record meeting when meeting starts (available only when a Cisco Unified Videoconferencing Desktop Server is configured in Cisco Unified Videoconferencing Manager).

Step 10 For meetings enabled for Desktop Server attendance, you can specify whether the meeting will allow streaming by selecting the default streaming mode.

The default streaming mode determines the initial streaming state. Streaming can be disabled or enabled during the meeting by any Desktop Server Client that has meeting moderation rights.

By default, the Default Streaming Mode field is disabled and hidden from the user interface. If you need this field enabled, contact your system administrator.

Step 11 (Optional) Enter a description of the scheduled meeting for future reference.

The Description field is hidden by default. If you need this field displayed, contact your system administrator.
