How to
setup the Video & Audio VCR/DVD outputs on the Polycom HDX systems
The VSS-1 system uses
the Polycom VCR/DVD audio and video outputs as inputs to the VSS-1
system. The following is based on info from the HDX Administrators
Guide:
All audio from the near site and far site is recorded, along with the
VCR/DVD Record Source video as configured on the Monitors screens. VCR
and DVD video output is standard-definition format. Polycom HDX systems
scale other formats to standard definition.
To configure VCR/DVD video settings for recording a call:
1 Do one of the following: — In the local interface, go to System
> Admin Settings > Monitors > Monitors (select if necessary). — In
the web interface, go to Admin Settings > Monitors.
2 Set the aspect ratio and video format for recording.
3 Select one or more sources for the VCR/DVD Record Source. If
you select both near and far, the Polycom HDX system automatically
switches recording to the site that is talking.
If you select content as a record source, it is recorded (when
available) regardless of who is talking. For more information about
configuring VCR/DVD settings for recording a call, refer to the Monitor
3 settings described on page 3-7 of the
Administrators Guide..
