Abstract

Management information for plural video calls is presented through a user interface that displays a list of calls prioritized based on one or more parameters, such as alarms, so that the most important calls are prominently displayed as they need attention. An alarm tracker tracks alarms associated with video device parameters, such as jitter, latency and linearity, and an alarm priority module determines the priority of video calls for display by comparing the alarms associated with the video calls. In one embodiment, the user interface has a locking option to lock a call's display position, for instance when a particularly important call with a lesser number of alarms nonetheless has a need for closer monitoring.
