Handling ancillary data in SMPTE 2038

Handling ancillary data in SMPTE 2038 - AWS Elemental Live

Whenever you plan to set up a transport stream (TS) source, you should find out if the content provider has set up the TS so that some data is included in SMPTE 2038 packets, rather than in the standard locations. The content provider typically sets up the TS in this way because they have converted an SDI stream to a TS.

If the content provider has provided data in SMPTE 2038, set up the input to extract that data from the SMPTE 2038 packets. Doing so ensures that Elemental Live will handle the source correctly. Don't ignore the data.
