# Working with ID3 metadata
<a name="id3-metadata"></a>



In MediaLive, you can include ID3 metadata in the following types of output groups:
+ Archive
+ CMAF Ingest
+ HLS TS (transport stream)
+ HLS MP4
+ HLS audio-only. This is an [HLS MP4 output group that contains only audio encodes](audio-only.md).
+ MediaPackage
+ UDP. 

The metadata is associated with individual outputs within the output group. You have control over the individual output where you want to include it. Typically, you include the metadata in an output if you know that a downstream system expects the metadata and is capable of interpreting it. You should obtain the requirements for ID3 metadata from a representative of the downstream system.
