Applies only if you plan to convert these source captions to EBU-TT-D or TTML in an output. (Make sure to leave the default if you don't have either of these formats in the output.) You can define a display rectangle for the captions that is smaller than the underlying video frame. You define the rectangle by specifying the position of the left edge, top edge, bottom edge, and right edge of the rectangle, all within the underlying video frame. The units for the measurements are percentages. If you specify a value for one of these fields, you must specify a value for all of them. For leftOffset, specify the position of the left edge of the rectangle, as a percentage of the underlying frame width, and relative to the left edge of the frame. For example, \"10\" means the measurement is 10% of the underlying frame width. The rectangle left edge starts at that position from the left edge of the frame. This field corresponds to tts:origin - X in the TTML standard.

TemporalFilterSettings

H264AdaptiveQuantization

Enables or disables adaptive quantization, which is a technique MediaLive can apply to video on a frame-by-frame basis to produce more compression without losing quality. There are three types of adaptive quantization: flicker, spatial, and temporal. Set the field in one of these ways: Set to Auto. Recommended. For each type of AQ, MediaLive will determine if AQ is needed, and if so, the appropriate strength. Set a strength (a value other than Auto or Disable). This strength will apply to any of the AQ fields that you choose to enable. Set to Disabled to disable all types of adaptive quantization.

AfdSignaling

Indicates that AFD values will be written into the output stream. If afdSignaling is "auto", the system will try to preserve the input AFD value (in cases where multiple AFD values are valid). If set to "fixed", the AFD value will be the value configured in the fixedAfd parameter.

integer

Minimum: 1000

Average bitrate in bits/second. Required when the rate control mode is VBR or CBR. Not used for QVBR. In an MS Smooth output group, each output must have a unique value when its bitrate is rounded down to the nearest multiple of 1000.

Optional filters that you can apply to an encode.

FixedAfd

Four bit AFD value to write on all frames of video in the output stream. Only valid when afdSignaling is set to 'Fixed'.

H264FlickerAq

Flicker AQ makes adjustments within each frame to reduce flicker or 'pop' on I-frames. The value to enter in this field depends on the value in the Adaptive quantization field: If you have set the Adaptive quantization field to Auto, MediaLive ignores any value in this field. MediaLive will determine if flicker AQ is appropriate and will apply the appropriate strength. If you have set the Adaptive quantization field to a strength, you can set this field to Enabled or Disabled. Enabled: MediaLive will apply flicker AQ using the specified strength. Disabled: MediaLive won't apply flicker AQ. If you have set the Adaptive quantization to Disabled, MediaLive ignores any value in this field and doesn't apply flicker AQ.

H264ForceFieldPictures

This setting applies only when scan type is "interlaced." It controls whether coding is performed on a field basis or on a frame basis. (When the video is progressive, the coding is always performed on a frame basis.) enabled: Force MediaLive to code on a field basis, so that odd and even sets of fields are coded separately. disabled: Code the two sets of fields separately (on a field basis) or together (on a frame basis using PAFF), depending on what is most appropriate for the content.

H264FramerateControl

This field indicates how the output video frame rate is specified. If "specified" is selected then the output video frame rate is determined by framerateNumerator and framerateDenominator, else if "initializeFromSource" is selected then the output video frame rate will be set equal to the input video frame rate of the first input.

integer

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 7

Number of B-frames between reference frames.

number

GOP size (keyframe interval) in units of either frames or seconds per gopSizeUnits. If gopSizeUnits is frames, gopSize must be an integer and must be greater than or equal to 1. If gopSizeUnits is seconds, gopSize must be greater than 0, but need not be an integer.

H264GopSizeUnits

Enforces separation between repeated (cadence) I-frames and I-frames inserted by Scene Change Detection. If a scene change I-frame is within I-interval frames of a cadence I-frame, the GOP is shrunk and/or stretched to the scene change I-frame. GOP stretch requires enabling lookahead as well as setting I-interval. The normal cadence resumes for the next GOP. Note: Maximum GOP stretch = GOP size + Min-I-interval - 1

integer

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 6

Number of reference frames to use. The encoder may use more than requested if using B-frames and/or interlaced encoding.

H264ParControl

This field indicates how the output pixel aspect ratio is specified. If "specified" is selected then the output video pixel aspect ratio is determined by parNumerator and parDenominator, else if "initializeFromSource" is selected then the output pixsel aspect ratio will be set equal to the input video pixel aspect ratio of the first input.

integer

Minimum: 1

Pixel Aspect Ratio denominator.

integer

Minimum: 1

Pixel Aspect Ratio numerator.

H264Profile

H264QualityLevel

Leave as STANDARD_QUALITY or choose a different value (which might result in additional costs to run the channel). - ENHANCED_QUALITY: Produces a slightly better video quality without an increase in the bitrate. Has an effect only when the Rate control mode is QVBR or CBR. If this channel is in a MediaLive multiplex, the value must be ENHANCED_QUALITY. - STANDARD_QUALITY: Valid for any Rate control mode.

integer

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 10

Controls the target quality for the video encode. Applies only when the rate control mode is QVBR. You can set a target quality or you can let MediaLive determine the best quality. To set a target quality, enter values in the QVBR quality level field and the Max bitrate field. Enter values that suit your most important viewing devices. Recommended values are: - Primary screen: Quality level: 8 to 10. Max bitrate: 4M - PC or tablet: Quality level: 7. Max bitrate: 1.5M to 3M - Smartphone: Quality level: 6. Max bitrate: 1M to 1.5M To let MediaLive decide, leave the QVBR quality level field empty, and in Max bitrate enter the maximum rate you want in the video. For more information, see the section called "Video - rate control mode" in the MediaLive user guide

H264RateControlMode

Rate control mode. QVBR: Quality will match the specified quality level except when it is constrained by the maximum bitrate. Recommended if you or your viewers pay for bandwidth. VBR: Quality and bitrate vary, depending on the video complexity. Recommended instead of QVBR if you want to maintain a specific average bitrate over the duration of the channel. CBR: Quality varies, depending on the video complexity. Recommended only if you distribute your assets to devices that cannot handle variable bitrates. Multiplex: This rate control mode is only supported (and is required) when the video is being delivered to a MediaLive Multiplex in which case the rate control configuration is controlled by the properties within the Multiplex Program.

H264ScanType

integer

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 32

Number of slices per picture. Must be less than or equal to the number of macroblock rows for progressive pictures, and less than or equal to half the number of macroblock rows for interlaced pictures. This field is optional; when no value is specified the encoder will choose the number of slices based on encode resolution.

integer

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 128

Softness. Selects quantizer matrix, larger values reduce high-frequency content in the encoded image. If not set to zero, must be greater than 15.

H264SpatialAq

Spatial AQ makes adjustments within each frame based on spatial variation of content complexity. The value to enter in this field depends on the value in the Adaptive quantization field: If you have set the Adaptive quantization field to Auto, MediaLive ignores any value in this field. MediaLive will determine if spatial AQ is appropriate and will apply the appropriate strength. If you have set the Adaptive quantization field to a strength, you can set this field to Enabled or Disabled. Enabled: MediaLive will apply spatial AQ using the specified strength. Disabled: MediaLive won't apply spatial AQ. If you have set the Adaptive quantization to Disabled, MediaLive ignores any value in this field and doesn't apply spatial AQ.

H264SubGopLength

If set to fixed, use gopNumBFrames B-frames per sub-GOP. If set to dynamic, optimize the number of B-frames used for each sub-GOP to improve visual quality.

H264Syntax

Produces a bitstream compliant with SMPTE RP-2027.

H264TemporalAq

Temporal makes adjustments within each frame based on temporal variation of content complexity. The value to enter in this field depends on the value in the Adaptive quantization field: If you have set the Adaptive quantization field to Auto, MediaLive ignores any value in this field. MediaLive will determine if temporal AQ is appropriate and will apply the appropriate strength. If you have set the Adaptive quantization field to a strength, you can set this field to Enabled or Disabled. Enabled: MediaLive will apply temporal AQ using the specified strength. Disabled: MediaLive won't apply temporal AQ. If you have set the Adaptive quantization to Disabled, MediaLive ignores any value in this field and doesn't apply temporal AQ.

HlsCaptionLanguageSetting

Applies only to 608 Embedded output captions. insert: Include CLOSED-CAPTIONS lines in the manifest. Specify at least one language in the CC1 Language Code field. One CLOSED-CAPTION line is added for each Language Code you specify. Make sure to specify the languages in the order in which they appear in the original source (if the source is embedded format) or the order of the caption selectors (if the source is other than embedded). Otherwise, languages in the manifest will not match up properly with the output captions. none: Include CLOSED-CAPTIONS=NONE line in the manifest. omit: Omit any CLOSED-CAPTIONS line from the manifest.

HlsClientCache

When set to "disabled", sets the #EXT-X-ALLOW-CACHE:no tag in the manifest, which prevents clients from saving media segments for later replay.

OutputLocationRef

A directory or HTTP destination for the HLS segments, manifest files, and encryption keys (if enabled).

HlsDirectoryStructure

Place segments in subdirectories.

HlsDiscontinuityTags

Specifies whether to insert EXT-X-DISCONTINUITY tags in the HLS child manifests for this output group. Typically, choose Insert because these tags are required in the manifest (according to the HLS specification) and serve an important purpose. Choose Never Insert only if the downstream system is doing real-time failover (without using the MediaLive automatic failover feature) and only if that downstream system has advised you to exclude the tags.

HlsEncryptionType

Encrypts the segments with the given encryption scheme. Exclude this parameter if no encryption is desired.

HlsCdnSettings

Parameters that control interactions with the CDN.

HlsId3SegmentTaggingState

DISABLED: Do not create an I-frame-only manifest, but do create the master and media manifests (according to the Output Selection field). STANDARD: Create an I-frame-only manifest for each output that contains video, as well as the other manifests (according to the Output Selection field). The I-frame manifest contains a #EXT-X-I-FRAMES-ONLY tag to indicate it is I-frame only, and one or more #EXT-X-BYTERANGE entries identifying the I-frame position. For example, #EXT-X-BYTERANGE:160364@1461888"

HlsIncompleteSegmentBehavior

Specifies whether to include the final (incomplete) segment in the media output when the pipeline stops producing output because of a channel stop, a channel pause or a loss of input to the pipeline. Auto means that MediaLive decides whether to include the final segment, depending on the channel class and the types of output groups. Suppress means to never include the incomplete segment. We recommend you choose Auto and let MediaLive control the behavior.

integer

Minimum: 3

Applies only if Mode field is LIVE. Specifies the maximum number of segments in the media manifest file. After this maximum, older segments are removed from the media manifest. This number must be smaller than the number in the Keep Segments field.

InputLossActionForHlsOut

Parameter that control output group behavior on input loss.

HlsIvInManifest

For use with encryptionType. The IV (Initialization Vector) is a 128-bit number used in conjunction with the key for encrypting blocks. If set to "include", IV is listed in the manifest, otherwise the IV is not in the manifest.

HlsIvSource

For use with encryptionType. The IV (Initialization Vector) is a 128-bit number used in conjunction with the key for encrypting blocks. If this setting is "followsSegmentNumber", it will cause the IV to change every segment (to match the segment number). If this is set to "explicit", you must enter a constantIv value.

integer

Minimum: 1

Applies only if Mode field is LIVE. Specifies the number of media segments to retain in the destination directory. This number should be bigger than indexNSegments (Num segments). We recommend (value = (2 x indexNsegments) + 1). If this "keep segments" number is too low, the following might happen: the player is still reading a media manifest file that lists this segment, but that segment has been removed from the destination directory (as directed by indexNSegments). This situation would result in a 404 HTTP error on the player.

string

The value specifies how the key is represented in the resource identified by the URI. If parameter is absent, an implicit value of "identity" is used. A reverse DNS string can also be given.

string

Indicates whether the output manifest should use floating point or integer values for segment duration.

integer

Minimum: 0

When set, minimumSegmentLength is enforced by looking ahead and back within the specified range for a nearby avail and extending the segment size if needed.

HlsMode

If "vod", all segments are indexed and kept permanently in the destination and manifest. If "live", only the number segments specified in keepSegments and indexNSegments are kept; newer segments replace older segments, which may prevent players from rewinding all the way to the beginning of the event. VOD mode uses HLS EXT-X-PLAYLIST-TYPE of EVENT while the channel is running, converting it to a "VOD" type manifest on completion of the stream.

HlsOutputSelection

MANIFESTS_AND_SEGMENTS: Generates manifests (master manifest, if applicable, and media manifests) for this output group. VARIANT_MANIFESTS_AND_SEGMENTS: Generates media manifests for this output group, but not a master manifest. SEGMENTS_ONLY: Does not generate any manifests for this output group.

HlsProgramDateTime

Includes or excludes EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME tag in .m3u8 manifest files. The value is calculated as follows: either the program date and time are initialized using the input timecode source, or the time is initialized using the input timecode source and the date is initialized using the timestampOffset.

HlsProgramDateTimeClock

Specifies the algorithm used to drive the HLS EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME clock. Options include: INITIALIZE_FROM_OUTPUT_TIMECODE: The PDT clock is initialized as a function of the first output timecode, then incremented by the EXTINF duration of each encoded segment. SYSTEM_CLOCK: The PDT clock is initialized as a function of the UTC wall clock, then incremented by the EXTINF duration of each encoded segment. If the PDT clock diverges from the wall clock by more than 500ms, it is resynchronized to the wall clock.

integer

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 3600

Period of insertion of EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME entry, in seconds.

HlsRedundantManifest

ENABLED: The master manifest (.m3u8 file) for each pipeline includes information about both pipelines: first its own media files, then the media files of the other pipeline. This feature allows playout device that support stale manifest detection to switch from one manifest to the other, when the current manifest seems to be stale. There are still two destinations and two master manifests, but both master manifests reference the media files from both pipelines. DISABLED: The master manifest (.m3u8 file) for each pipeline includes information about its own pipeline only. For an HLS output group with MediaPackage as the destination, the DISABLED behavior is always followed. MediaPackage regenerates the manifests it serves to players so a redundant manifest from MediaLive is irrelevant.

HlsSegmentationMode

useInputSegmentation has been deprecated. The configured segment size is always used.

integer

Minimum: 1

Length of MPEG-2 Transport Stream segments to create (in seconds). Note that segments will end on the next keyframe after this number of seconds, so actual segment length may be longer.

integer

Minimum: 1

Number of segments to write to a subdirectory before starting a new one. directoryStructure must be subdirectoryPerStream for this setting to have an effect.

HlsStreamInfResolution

Include or exclude RESOLUTION attribute for video in EXT-X-STREAM-INF tag of variant manifest.

HlsTimedMetadataId3Frame

Indicates ID3 frame that has the timecode.

integer

Minimum: 0

Timed Metadata interval in seconds.

integer

Minimum: 0

Provides an extra millisecond delta offset to fine tune the timestamps.

HlsTsFileMode

SEGMENTED_FILES: Emit the program as segments - multiple .ts media files. SINGLE_FILE: Applies only if Mode field is VOD. Emit the program as a single .ts media file. The media manifest includes #EXT-X-BYTERANGE tags to index segments for playback. A typical use for this value is when sending the output to AWS Elemental MediaConvert, which can accept only a single media file. Playback while the channel is running is not guaranteed due to HTTP server caching.

integer

Minimum: 0

When specified the HLS stream with the m3u8 BANDWIDTH that most closely matches this value will be chosen, otherwise the highest bandwidth stream in the m3u8 will be chosen. The bitrate is specified in bits per second, as in an HLS manifest.

integer

Minimum: 0

When specified, reading of the HLS input will begin this many buffer segments from the end (most recently written segment). When not specified, the HLS input will begin with the first segment specified in the m3u8.

integer

Minimum: 0

The number of consecutive times that attempts to read a manifest or segment must fail before the input is considered unavailable.

integer

Minimum: 0

The number of seconds between retries when an attempt to read a manifest or segment fails.

HlsScte35SourceType

Identifies the source for the SCTE-35 messages that MediaLive will ingest. Messages can be ingested from the content segments (in the stream) or from tags in the playlist (the HLS manifest). MediaLive ignores SCTE-35 information in the source that is not selected.

integer

Minimum: 0

Number of seconds to wait before retrying connection to the CDN if the connection is lost.

integer

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 600

Size in seconds of file cache for streaming outputs.

HlsMediaStoreStorageClass

When set to temporal, output files are stored in non-persistent memory for faster reading and writing.

integer

Minimum: 0

Number of retry attempts that will be made before the Live Event is put into an error state.

integer

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 15

If a streaming output fails, number of seconds to wait until a restart is initiated. A value of 0 means never restart.

HlsH265PackagingType

Only applicable when this output is referencing an H.265 video description. Specifies whether MP4 segments should be packaged as HEV1 or HVC1.

HlsSettings

Settings regarding the underlying stream. These settings are different for audio-only outputs.

string

MinLength: 1

String concatenated to the end of the destination filename. Accepts \"Format Identifiers\":#formatIdentifierParameters.

string

String concatenated to end of segment filenames.

S3CannedAcl

Specify the canned ACL to apply to each S3 request. Defaults to none.

HlsS3LogUploads

When set to enabled, each fragment upload to CDN or server will be logged.

AudioOnlyHlsSettings

Fmp4HlsSettings

FrameCaptureHlsSettings

StandardHlsSettings

integer

Minimum: 0

Number of seconds to wait before retrying connection to the CDN if the connection is lost.

integer

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 600

Size in seconds of file cache for streaming outputs.

HlsWebdavHttpTransferMode

Specify whether or not to use chunked transfer encoding to WebDAV.

integer

Minimum: 0

Number of retry attempts that will be made before the Live Event is put into an error state.

integer

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 15

If a streaming output fails, number of seconds to wait until a restart is initiated. A value of 0 means never restart.

AutomaticInputFailoverSettings

User-specified settings for defining what the conditions are for declaring the input unhealthy and failing over to a different input.

string

User-specified name for the attachment. This is required if the user wants to use this input in an input switch action.

string

The ID of the input

InputSettings

Settings of an input (caption selector, etc.)

integer

Minimum: -60

Maximum: 6

Remixing value. Units are in dB and acceptable values are within the range from -60 (mute) and 6 dB.

integer

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 15

The index of the input channel used as a source.

string

key used to extract the password from EC2 Parameter store

string

Uniform Resource Identifier - This should be a path to a file accessible to the Live system (eg. a http:// URI) depending on the output type. For example, a RTMP destination should have a uri simliar to: "rtmp://fmsserver/live".

string

Username if credentials are required to access a file or publishing point. This can be either a plaintext username, or a reference to an AWS parameter store name from which the username can be retrieved. AWS Parameter store format: "ssm://<parameter name>"
