Watch output from cameras using parser library

The Kinesis video stream parser library is a set of tools that you can use in Java applications to consume the MKV data in a Kinesis video stream.

The library includes the following tools:

  • StreamingMkvReader: This class reads specified MKV elements from a video stream.

  • FragmentMetadataVisitor: This class retrieves metadata for fragments (media elements) and tracks (individual data streams containing media information, such as audio or subtitles).

  • OutputSegmentMerger: This class merges consecutive fragments or chunks in a video stream.

  • KinesisVideoExample: This is a sample application that shows how to use the Kinesis video stream parser library.

The library also includes tests that show how the tools are used.
