You can create one audio encode and clone it among several outputs. The source encode could be an encode that you created from scratch, or it could be an encode that was itself created by cloning. For example, create audio-1, then clone it to audio-2, then clone audio-2 to audio-3.
Note that the procedure for cloning an audio encode is nearly identical to the procedure for cloningg a video encode or captions encode.
-
On the Create channel page, find the output group that you created.
-
Under that output group, find the output where you want to set up an audio encode.
-
The output might contain an audio encode that MediaLive has automatically added. If you don't plan to use this audio encode, remove it. Choose the audio encode and choose Remove audio.
-
Create a new audio. Choose Add audio. A menu appears that includes the option Use an existing audio description, followed by a list of the audios that currently exist in the entire channel. Choose the audio that you want to use.
-
Choose the audio encode that you want to use as the source for the new audio encode.
-
On the dialog that appears, choose Clone the existing settings. The fields for the encode appear, with the fields showing the values from the source encode.
-
Change any fields, as appropriate.
Keep in mind that this cloned encode is a new encode instance. If you change fields, you don't affect the source encode.
