Change Video Clarity
You can change the clarity of your video, including the brightness, contrast, and sharpness of your video
stream. If your camera faces a bright light source, such as a bright window, you may need to increase the
camera’s brightness, contrast, and sharpness levels so the far side can see you better. To see how you look
to the far side, view the picture-in-picture (PIP). See the section Changing the Video Call and PIP Displays
for more information on the PIP.
You can adjust the clarity of your video using the following settings:
● Target Frame Rate Sets how smoothly your video displays. You can set a rate between 5 (least
smooth) and 30 (smoothest). The default rate is 25.
● Brightness Level Sets how brightly your video displays. You can set a level between 0 (dimmest)
and 6 (brightest). The default level is 3.
● Saturation Level Sets how much color your video displays. You can set a level between 0 (lowest)
and 6 (highest). The default level is 3.
● Contrast Level Sets the difference in brightness between the light and dark areas of your video. You
can set a level between 0 (no contrast increase) and Auto (noise reduction contrast). The default level
is 0.
● Sharpness Level Sets the clarity of detail in your video. You can set a level between 0 (lowest) and
6 (highest). The default level is 3.
● Flicker Avoidance Adjusts the flickering of your video captured by the camera sensor. You can
select 50 Hz (flicker avoidance for Europe and Asia) or 60 Hz (flicker avoidance for North America).
The default is 50 Hz.
To change the clarity of your video:
1 Navigate to Settings > Basic > Video > Camera Settings.
For VVX 1500 phones, navigate to Menu > Settings > Basic > Video > Camera Settings.
2 From the Camera Settings screen, select and adjust the desired camera settings.
