Deleting an input

Focus mode
Deleting an input - MediaLive
  1. Open the MediaLive console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/medialive/.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Inputs. On the Inputs page, find the input that you want to delete, and then look at the State column.

    • If the state is Detached, then choose the input and chooseDelete.

    • If the state is Attached and you want to delete the input but keep the channel, first detach the input. Then come back to this Inputs page, choose the input, and chooseDelete.

    • If the state is Attached and you want to delete both the input and its channel, then first delete the channel. Then come back to this Inputs page, choose the input, and chooseDelete.

The results are as follows:

  • If the input is an Elemental Link input, MediaLive deletes the input. But the Link input device remains in the Devices list, and you can attach it to a new input at any time.

  • If the input is a MediaConnect push input, the corresponding outputs in MediaConnect are automatically deleted. You don't have to delete the outputs.

  • If the input is an RTP VPC input or an RTMP VPC push input, the elastic network interfaces of the endpoints are deleted and the IPv4 addresses in the subnet are released for use by another resource. You don't have to delete the network interfaces.

The input security group that is attached to the input (if any) is not deleted.
