Sharpness and Motion
Sharpness and Motion are Video Quality settings that are selected per conference and are defined in the
conference Profile. A conference with Sharpness selected in its Profile uses the Sharpness settings of the
Resolution Configuration and a conference with Motion selected in its Profile uses the Motion settings of the
Resolution Configuration dialog box.
The Sharpness and Motion tabs in the Resolution Configuration dialog box allow you to view and modify
Resolution Configuration settings for conferences with either Video Quality setting.
The Sharpness and Motion tabs include separate settings for Base Profile and High Profile as the
Collaboration Server uses two decision matrices (Base Profile, High Profile) to enable endpoints to connect
according to their capabilities.
H.264 High Profile allows higher quality video to be transmitted at lower bit rates. However, setting minimum
bit rate thresholds that are lower than the default may affect the video quality of endpoints that do not
support the H.264 High Profile.
Resolution Configuration Sliders
The Detailed Configuration dialog box allows you to configure minimum connection threshold bit rates for
endpoints that support H.264 High Profile and those that do not support H.264 High Profile by using the
following slider panes:
