LiveEventEncoding

encodingType

enum
Required
Live event type. When encodingType is set to PassthroughBasic or PassthroughStandard, the service simply passes through the incoming video and audio layer(s) to the output. When encodingType is set to Standard or Premium1080p, a live encoder transcodes the incoming stream into multiple bitrates or layers.

Allowed values:

• None
• PassthroughBasic
• PassthroughStandard
• Premium1080p
• Standard

keyFrameInterval

string
Optional
Defaults to PT2S.
Use an ISO 8601 time value between 1 and 10 seconds to specify the output fragment length for the video and audio tracks of an encoding live event. For example, use PT2S to indicate 2 seconds. For the video track it also defines the key frame interval, or the length of a GoP (group of pictures). If this value is not set for an encoding live event, the fragment duration defaults to 2 seconds. The value cannot be set for pass-through live events.

presetName

string
Optional
Defaults to either Default720p or Default1080p depending on encoding type. May be used to specify alternative encoding templates - contact support for assistance if your needs are complex.

stretchMode

enum
Optional
Determines how aspect ratio will be preserved when there is a mismatch between the input and output aspect ratios. Autofit to pad the output. Autosize to ignore the output ratio and pick the largest dimension that fits, and None to clip the content.

Allowed values:

• None
• AutoSize
• AutoFit
