MediaConnect source health event - AWS Elemental MediaConnect

MediaConnect source health event

AWS Elemental MediaConnect publishes source health events after a source health indicator state changes.

MediaConnect publishes this event any time there is a state change to one or more of the following source health indicators. This event publishes the current and previous state of the flow. Note that the source health event lists the affected flow and source in the resources section.

The following are source health indicators:

  • Source state

    • Possible states: connected, receiving, disconnected, idle

  • TR-101: TR-101 is an industry standard technical recommendation for the monitoring of transport streams (TS). The following events are only published for TS based protocols.

    • TS sync loss - true when source payloads do not look like a valid transport stream.

    • Continuity count error - true when the source finds continuity count errors.

    • Transport error - true when the TS has the transport indicator set.

    • PCR error - true when there is a PCR discontinuity or a long gap in PCR packet reception.

For information about subscribing to this event, see Amazon EventBridge.
