Dx650 - Just CUCM for video calling?

We have CUCM 10, running on a BE6K. We just ordered some video endpoints (DX650).
Will person to person video calling work for users on our CUCM cluster? I realize for external calling we need Cisco TelePresence Server/Cisco TelePresence Conductor/Expressway. But I assume for internal phone to phone video we don't need anything?
And CUWL standard will be sufficient?
Thanks, Bill

Point to point calling will work without any issues. You may need to have enhanced license as I believe it is seen as a telepresence device.

Good evening I want to know if there is a solution for video calls between 2 citys via VPN link if there is virtual solution or programs
Thanks all and sorry for bad English

Hi ,
It is not clear what the specifications of your setup are supposed to look like . However could take a look at "
Cisco Virtualization Experience Media Engine" since you plan on having voice and video in a virtualized environment :

How can we use K900 for video call over wifi or 3G

Do we have video calling feature like samsung provides over 3G or wifi? I dont see any option while dialing a number.
thanks

@vinashar,
I would recommend 3rd party apps such as Line or Skype for video calls ... As for future plans to implement video calls in the Lenovo dialer, I am not sure.
Thanks

I have a Y2P (i5) ... Feel free to ping me if you want me to test some applications with your Y2P if you have the same model. I don't mind keep doing recovery on it if needed .... =)

When you select one of your contacts, an option for a video call should appear with the call and chat options.

Restricting bandwidth for video calls on 9971 devices

Hi,
I've got a 9971 hanging of a relatively poor ADSL line and I need to restrict the bandwidth it uses when making a video. It works when it's configured to be in a location with high BW, but when I created a new Location and restricted the video BW to 400Kbps, I can't make video calls anymore. I then tried increments of 100Kbps until it began to work at 1000Kbps.
Am I missing something here? Can I set the video resolution for sending on 9971 devices.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Cheers

Hi,
You should be setting the bandwidth parameter under REGION and not LOCATION. REGION will allow you to set the "Max Video Call Bit Rate" on a per call basis.
From the SRND document at https://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/srnd/7x/video.html#wp1046094, there is a very well written explanation on how the video bandwidth can be modified:
"The Video Bandwidth field accepts values in the range of 1 to 8128 kbps. However, to allow for compatibility with H.323 and H.320 videoconferencing devices, Cisco recommends that you always enter values for this field in increments of either 56 or 64 kbps. Therefore, valid values for this field include 112 kbps, 128 kbps, 224 kbps, 256 kbps, 336 kbps, 384 kbps, and so forth.
When the call speed requested by the endpoint exceeds the bandwidth value configured for the region, Unified CM automatically negotiates the call down to match the value allowed in the region setting. For instance, assume that an H.323 endpoint calls another H.323 endpoint at 768 kbps, but the region is set to allow a maximum of 384 kbps. The incoming H.225 setup request from the calling party would indicate that the call speed is 768 kbps, but Unified CM would change that value to 384 kbps in the outgoing H.225 setup message to the called party. Thus, the called endpoint would think that it was a 384-kbps call to begin with, and the call would be negotiated at that rate. The calling endpoint would show the requested bandwidth as 768 kbps, but the negotiated bandwidth would be 384 kbps.
However, if you set the Video Bandwidth to "None" in the region, Unified CM will either terminate the call (and send an H.225 Release Complete message back to the calling party) or will allow the call to pass as an audio-only call instead, depending on whether or not the called device has the Retry Video Call as Audio option enabled."
So to make a video call on a your poor ADSL line, you can update/create the Region to use a Video Bandwidth of 384kbps, the phone will be able to establish a Video call in VGA format at 15 fps, which is fairly good. At 625kbps, you are looking at 30fps. The change will affect any new calls and the configuration is not done on the handset and not just related to 9971 phones.
Please rate if you find this useful.

Is i phone 4 video call that you said a face time can only be use for video calling i phone product only

hi, i just want to ask you about your produce i phone 4 for the said face time or vedio calling. can it be used only for same i phone product or all the mobile in the world like nokia and blackberry

There is nothing whatsoever misleading about how FactTime is described by Apple. It works EXACTY as stated. If you are mislead, it's due to your inadequate reading comprehension or lack of effort reading what Apple actually said.
There is no "international" standard for cell phone video calling. Most other phones use proprietary systems or 3rd party apps such as Skype (which also works on iPhones). FaceTime is on WiFi internet connections only because all carriers have refused to allow it on their cell networks due to the huge number of iPhones. The FaceTime standard is open source and other manufacturers are free to implement it, but have refused so far.

How to install Skype/viber for video calling on ZTE open C firefoxOS mobile

I have problem in installing Skype/viber video calling app on my ZTE open C
Firefox OS mobile every time I try it directs me to google play store which identify only
Android OS

Unfortunately, Skype or Viber is not available for Firefox OS at this moment. There are alternative chat apps that are available in the Marketplace however, I don't think it supports Skype or Viber at this moment.

Using Skype for video call on iPad2

I installed Skype for iPad and when I try to place a video call, the video button is present but not active. I have gone through the audio test call several times and that works fine. How do I activate the video function?

Barry-
Looking at preferences and settings, I can not find any way to change access to the video button. I see it is not active when you place a call to the audio test server, but that is to be expected.
I had a problem with the Macintosh iChat video program, where video was not available when my internet access was too slow to support video. I do not know if that applies to Skype or not. If you can have someone call you using their video button to make the call, your Skype video may activate and work correctly in the future.

How to get logs from CUCM for initiated calls

Dears,
like in Voice Gateway for initiated calls we can run debugs command like debug voip ccapi inout to know the calling and the called number and the status of the call, matched dial-peer, ... etc
Can we do the same in CUCM
Thanks in advance for your help

CDR is used mainly for call statistics, it is not designed for detailed troubleshooting. Reading cucm logs requires a detailed understanding of how different components function and some practice. It can be a little daunting.
This book is excellent. This is what I always recommend as the starting point..

Any Fix For Video Calling Since Releases of versio...

Still stuck on Verson 6.22.0.107 Due to a bug (downgrade) that was intruduced in Version 7.x
In Version 6.2 Im able to activaily join a 100+ chat group, type /golive, have people join the call and share my webcam (buttons avlilble)
In version 7.x.xxx Im able to activaily Join a 100+ chat Group, Type /golive, have people join the call but NOT share my webcam, (The buttons grayed out)
There is no reason for the latest version of skype to have webcam disabled in a large chat like this. Exspecially when the prevouse version CAN do it.
This makes my FaceRig, and ManyCam become super redundent when Im not able to use them during a large skype call.
I personally demand a fix for this or Ill be staying on version 6.22.0.107 for the rest of skype life.

Thank you for the comments so far.
The Audio MIDI Setup is (and has been) set for 44100, 2channel, 16 bit.
I've found that it apparently has to do with Quicktime 7 (I'm using 7.0.4, now) When I use QT 6 (which is what came with the install disk, and after an archive and install) The problem is not there--no stuttering of the video at all. Also, there seems to be no writing to the disk during playback in QT 6. When I upgraded to QT 7, because it's apparently needed for iLife, 06, the writing to the disk occurs during video playback. It stutters exactly when this occurs.
So, it seems to be a situation with not having enough cache to handle disk writes during playback. Does anyone know what is causing either the disk writes during playback, or, if there's a way to increase the player's cache for video playback from an internal drive?. Oh, and I am using QT Pro.
It seems I have a choice of going back to an earlier version of QT, and an earlier version of iTunes, or coming up with a way to stop the disk writing during playback. Could it be caused by the serial disk interface rather than the old standard ATA parallel interface that used to be used? Does anyone know a way to increase the QT cache (for video playback from internal drives)?
So far, I've tried:
Archive and Install of Tiger, then update to 10.4.5,
Reinstall of QT 7.0.4 from 6
Turned off Spotlight (using Terminal)
Set processor to not nap (which doesn't hold through a reboot)
Set processor to Maximum processing
Tried using only single processor
No resolution yet.

Enabling 3G for video calling - N96

Upon trying to make a video call, I get a message saying it's not supported by the network, but I have this with T-Mobile for free as part of my package (they have confirmed).
However, as I disconnected from a 3G web session, I noticed the 3G icon in the top left was showing, so I tried the call again and it started dialling ok.
However, the 3G icon disappears, and I can no longer make video calls.
How can I enable the 3G or make video calls without this issue?
Many thanks.
Solved!

Bandwidth Requirement for Video Call

Hi,
I am having Cisco 9951 phones in my all location now we want to configure Video call between two location (Head office to SRST locaiton). Please help me how much bandwidth is require to make video calls.
Also, what all configuration is require for the same.
Regards,
Shambhu

The default is inter-region max video call bit rate is 384K, close to one video call.
The default Interregion max video call bit rate is 384K.
The bandwidth would depend on the resolution being used. The recommended bandwidth for resolutions are as follow:
VGA 360p@30fps: 768 - 2000kbps
VGA 360p@15fps: 448 - 767kps
CIF@30fps: 320 - 447kbps
CIF@15fps: 256 - 319kbps
QCIF@30fps: 128kbps – 255kbps
QCIF@15fps: 64 - 127kbps
And 9971 IP Phone supports below formats:
SQCIF (128 x 96 pixels)
QCIF (176 x 144 pixels)
QVGA (320 x 240 pixels)
SIF (352 x 240 pixels)
CIF (352 x 288 pixels)
VGA (640 x 480 pixels)

Skype doesn't present option for video calls

I recently upgraded from Windows XP to 7. Video call is not shown as an option for a call. Video and audio test fine. Any ideas?
Thanks, ButchD

Please, run the DirectX diagnostics tool (32-bit mode).
Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post.
Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

Why do I have to use a 3rd party for video calling...

I have downloaded the newest version of skype, and it says I am using BtvStack.exe for Skype. It will not allow me to make video calls from my desktop. How can I change this!? Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you are not using any Bluetooth devices with Skype, then you don't need this BtvStack.exe application at all.
In Skype open Tools -> Options -> Advanced settings. At the bottom of this screen you should see a menu item saying “Manage other programs access to Skype”. Click on this menu. Do you see any applications listed there?
If you see BtvStack.exe in the list, then remove this application.

Need a software for video calling.

Hey there,
I bought my Nokia C7-00 couple of months before. I've downloaded a few softwares although they are not good as android softwares but it's ok with me. Now I'm looking for a software through which I can have video chat. I have a software called Nimbuzz and it is good for voice but Ican't have video chat through it. So is there anyone out there who can suggest me a software through which I can video chat and my phone also must support that?,
Don't suggest skype as it hangs my phone everytime I try to have have voice or video conversation.
