Embodiments herein generally relate to video-conferencing systems, and more particularly a method and system for optimally grouping and auto-cropping a field of view (FOV) of the video-conferencing system based on predefined preferences, such as preferences determined by a user. Generally, embodiments of the disclosure provided herein include a video-conferencing system that is configured to update the presentation of participants within a video conference to regularly determine the optimal presentation of the participants at any given moment in time based on predetermined preferences, while mitigating defects and related unwanted distractions typically generated in the video conference presentation due to the changes provided in the updates. Embodiments of the disclosure allow the predetermined preferences to each be given an importance level rating so as to allow the presentation of the participants to be optimally provided without making unnecessary and/or distracting updates to the video conference presentation, and also help resolve conflicting or competing attributes of related preferences.
