# Creating a Contact and Group

To add a new subscriber to the address book, click /mcu/media/gui/create/en.png, enter the display name, and click Save. You will open a contact card in the Profile tab.

# Profile

On this tab, you can specify:

  • Display name

  • email;

  • phone number;

  • The language in which the control panel will be displayed for this user (if they are assigned the role of an operator or administrator).

These data are displayed in the contact card under the Information tab.

# Address

Here you can assign multiple addresses with different protocols (SIP, H.323, RTSP, VNC) to a contact. To do this:

  1. Press the Add button.

  2. Select the protocol type to be used for the connection.

  3. Enter the route address.

  4. Press the Save button.

If necessary, specify the Display name - the name displayed during the conference. If it is not specified, the user's name will be displayed in the conference.

# Additional

On the Additional tab, you can choose audio and video codecs, set up resolution and bitrate restrictions for outgoing video stream, and check the Cascading box.

/mcu/media/add_user_additional_tab/en.png

For participants with cascading enabled, their own video (self-view) will be automatically removed from the layout. This will be useful if the user is a conference on another instance of TrueConf MCU or on TrueConf Server

You can specify multiple addresses for one contact:

/mcu/media/some_address/en.png

When several protocols are specified, TrueConf MCU will make calls in the order of priority specified in the server settings in the Administration → Calls → Protocol priority section.

To add a TrueConf video conference as a subscriber, use one of the SIP/H.323 protocols, but instead of a username, enter the string 00<Conference_ID>, where <Conference_ID> is the conference ID.

For example, 00639499375243@video.company.com

# Account

You can assign a username and password to a user for logging into the control panel to administer the server or conduct conferences. After saving the settings, the role of Operator will automatically be assigned to the contact.

The authorization data can also be changed in this tab.
