Video is not currently supported for customers who have MegaPath Call Recording.

Note that MegaPath Call Recording is the centralized call recording product, not the recording capabilities of the Unified Communications (UC) client. The UC client itself has local recording and video.

Check your Unified Communications (UC) Maximum Resolution setting, located under Preferences > Other Devices > Maximum Resolution. If it is set to HD Widescreen it is not compatible with the VVX1500. Choosing a lower resolution setting will allow the video to work with the VVX1500 phone.

Enabling Caller ID block (Hide my Number) on the Unified Communications client breaks the outbound calling functionality. Check your Hide my Number setting, located under More Call Options > Hide my Number. Disable the Caller ID block/Hide my Number.

If Caller ID Block is needed, use the block feature available for each user in the Voice Administration Portal.

  • Administrators access Voice Administration from the Client Portal. Go to the user's profile.
  • End users access Voice Administration from the Voice Manager. Go to Settings > Advanced Configuration.
