Table 48: Configuring recording settings
Field Description
Location Enable recording and playback by defining a location to store the recordings, from the
options listed below. To disable recording and playback on this endpoint, select No
Recording.
• Automatic (default option): Select to choose the location each time you record.
When you access the recording menu, the XT Series displays the available options
to record at that time:
- You can record videoconferences or local presentations to a USB storage device
with enough available disk space.
- You can record meetings directly to the network if your Equinox Solution includes
a recording server, the XT Series is managed by Equinox Management, and the
meeting is hosted by an external Scopia Elite MCU (or an older model). For
details, contact your administrator.
• USB Storage: Select to only record to a local USB storage device. You can record
videoconferences or local presentations, and then view the recordings on the
endpoint itself, or using any standard media player. The system saves the file as an
MP4, and records the video in H.264 format with audio in AAC-LC format. You can
also configure the XT Series to automatically save your locally recorded files to an
external ftp/s server or to the Avaya Equinox Streaming and Recording Server.
• Equinox Recording Server: Select to only record meetings to the network, even if
a local USB storage device is connected. You can only record to the network if your
Equinox Solution includes a recording server, the XT Series is managed by Equinox
Management, and the meeting is hosted by an external Scopia Elite MCU (or an
older model). For details, contact your administrator.
You can view these recordings via the Scopia Desktop Web Portal (see User Guide
for Avaya Scopia Desktop Client).
Resolution Select the video resolution to use when recording meetings to a local USB storage
device. The frame rate is limited to 25fps. For best quality, use the default 1080p
resolution, but use a lower value if your media player does not support higher
resolutions.
When you change the resolution, the system automatically selects the optimal bitrate
for this resolution.
You cannot change the video resolution for meetings recorded to the network. If you
selected Automatic as the Location, this resolution is applied only when recording to
the USB device.
Bit rate Select the bitrate to determine the file size when recording meetings to a local USB
storage device. To use less disk space, select a lower bitrate. For the best results, use
the default value for your chosen resolution.
Bitrate is the speed of data flow. Higher video resolutions require higher bitrates to
ensure the video is constantly updated, thereby maintaining smooth motion. If you
lower the bitrate, you lower the quality of the video. In some cases, you can select a
lower bitrate without noticing a significant drop in video quality; for example during a
