Preferences – Media Quality
Field Description
Audio Quality
Reduce echo Turning this feature on improves sound quality. This feature is typically on.
Reduce background noise Automatically attempts to remove background noise.
Typically on for the speakerphone.
Automatic gain control This feature is typically on.
Preserve bandwidth When this feature is on, X-Lite stops sending audio when you are not talking.
When this feature is off, X-Lite always sends audio, which uses more bandwidth but may result in
better call quality.
Typically off. However, if you are using a slow (dial-up or ISDN) connection, you may want to turn
it on.
Video Quality
Resolution Leave at standard, or change the size as follows:
• Set it to high if you have a good camera and a computer with a fast CPU. You will know that you
have set the size too large if:
Your computer slows down (the video is using too much CPU)
The video shows black areas or is slow or jerky.
• Typically set it to low only in special situations, for example, when using wi-fi in a hotel. You
will know that you have set the size too small if the video is fuzzy.
This field is identical to the Resolution field in Devices > Other Devices.
