The Highest Common mechanism in Video Switching conferences supports:
•
Video Protocol (including H.263 and H.264)
•
Video Format
•
Frame Rate
•
H.263 Annexes (N, F, T and I)
•
ProMotion (NTSC or PAL Interlaced Video)
The Highest Common mechanism does not support the following options:
•
Cascading conferences. The Highest Common mechanism is disabled in
Cascading conferences. When defining a Cascading conference, all the
cascaded conferences must be set to the same video protocol.
