RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/1800/2000/4000 Administrator’s Guide
Polycom®, Inc. 168
The switch to the Content layout occurs in the Auto Layout, Presentation Mode, Lecture Mode and when a
layout is selected for the conference. However, in Lecture Mode, when Content is sent to legacy endpoints,
when switching to the Content layout, the Content is shown in the lecturer/speaker window and the lecturer
is shown in a second window. If the layout contains more than two windows, all other windows will be empty.
All other participants will see the lecturer in full screen.
In Same Layout mode, Content cannot be sent to legacy endpoints.
The LEGACY_EP_CONTENT_DEFAULT_LAYOUT Flag default is set to a layout of 1+4 where the Content
is shown in the large window and the other conference participants are shown in the small windows. This
default value can be changed in the System Configuration.
When Content is stopped, the layout of the legacy participants returns to the last video layout seen prior to
the Content mode.
The Legacy participants can change their layout using Click&View. In such a case, the Content is forced to
the speaker window.
The Collaboration Server user can also change the layout for the participants the legacy endpoints
(selecting personal layout).
When forcing a video participant to the Content window (instead of Content), the Content display can be
restored only by selecting any other video layout.
Interoperability with Polycom CMA and RealPresence DMA System
The CMA uses the Profiles that are stored in the Collaboration Server. If the Send Content to Legacy
Endpoints option is enabled in the Conference Profile, this option will be enabled in the conference started
from the CMA that uses that Profile. However, the CMA does not display an indication that this option is
enabled for the conference.
A new conference can be started on the RealPresence DMA System using a Conference Profile that is
defined on the Collaboration Server or by defining all the conference parameters. The Send Content to
Legacy Endpoints option can be enabled only in the Conference Profile defined in the Collaboration
Server, therefore, to include this option in the conference started on the DMA use an Collaboration Server
existing Profile. However, the DMA does not display an indication that this option is enabled for the
conference.
