Video Clarity™ When enabled (default), Video Clarity applies video enhancing 
algorithms to incoming video streams of resolutions up to and 
including SD. Clearer images with sharper edges and higher contrast 
are sent back to all endpoints at the highest possible resolution 
supported by each endpoint.
All layouts, including 1x1, are supported. 
Note: Video Clarity is enabled only when Video Quality is set to 
Sharpness (default setting) and is disabled when Video Quality is set 
to Motion.
Video Clarity can only be enabled for Continuous Presence 
conferences in MPM+ and MPMx Card Configuration Mode.
Note: From Version 8.1, the MPM+ media card is not supported.
Auto Brightness Auto Brightness detects and automatically adjusts the brightness of 
video windows that are dimmer than other video windows in the 
conference layout.
• Auto Brightness is supported with MPM+ and MPMx cards only.
• Auto Brightness only increases brightness and does not darken 
video windows.
• Auto Brightness is selected by default.
• Auto Brightness cannot be selected and deselected during an 
ongoing conference.
Default: On
Note: When Auto Brightness is enabled, color changes may be 
observed in computer-based VGA Content sent by HDX endpoints 
through the People video channel.
