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-o 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 species whether to give priority to high frame rate or to
high resolution for a given source.
Requires user role: ADMIN
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.

Video Input Source [1..3]/[1..2] OptimalDenition Prole
Note: EX90 has Video Input Source [1..3] and EX60 has Video Input Source [1..2].
Adjust how rapidly the system will increase the transmitted resolution when increasing the bandwidth.
Note: Requires that the Video Input Source Quality is set to Motion.
Note: The default transmit frame rate is set to 30 fps which is recommended for normal light
conditions. In good light conditions you can also consider to allow 60 fps. To do this you need
to enable 60 Hz capture frequency on the camera, which is done with the Cameras Camera 1
FrameRate setting (xConguration Cameras Camera 1 FrameRate: 60Hz).
Normal: Use this setting for normal to poorly lit environment. If the source is a camera with
1920x1080p60, the system will transmit 720p60 at about 2.2 Mb/sec and above when the Video
Input Source [1..3]/[1..2] OptimalDenition Threshold60fps is set to 1280_720 or lower.
Medium: Requires better than normal and consistent lighting and good quality video inputs. If the
source is a camera with 1920x1080p60, the system will transmit 720p60 at about 1.9 Mb/sec and
above when the Video Input Source [1..3]/[1..2] OptimalDenition Threshold60fps is set to 1280_720
or lower.
High: Requires good lighting conditions for a good overall experience and good quality video inputs. If
the source is a camera with 1920x1080p60, the system will transmit 720p60 at about 1.1 Mb/sec and
above when the Video Input Source [1..3]/[1..2] OptimalDenition Threshold60fps is set to 1280_720
or lower.
