CreateHlsManifestConfiguration - AWS Elemental MediaPackage V2 Live API

CreateHlsManifestConfiguration

Create an HTTP live streaming (HLS) manifest configuration.

Contents

ManifestName

A short short string that's appended to the endpoint URL. The manifest name creates a unique path to this endpoint. If you don't enter a value, MediaPackage uses the default manifest name, index. MediaPackage automatically inserts the format extension, such as .m3u8. You can't use the same manifest name if you use HLS manifest and low-latency HLS manifest. The manifestName on the HLSManifest object overrides the manifestName you provided on the originEndpoint object.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 256.

Pattern: [a-zA-Z0-9-]+

Required: Yes

ChildManifestName

A short string that's appended to the endpoint URL. The child manifest name creates a unique path to this endpoint. If you don't enter a value, MediaPackage uses the default manifest name, index, with an added suffix to distinguish it from the manifest name. The manifestName on the HLSManifest object overrides the manifestName you provided on the originEndpoint object.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 256.

Pattern: [a-zA-Z0-9-]+

Required: No

FilterConfiguration

Filter configuration includes settings for manifest filtering, start and end times, and time delay that apply to all of your egress requests for this manifest.

Type: FilterConfiguration object

Required: No

ManifestWindowSeconds

The total duration (in seconds) of the manifest's content.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 30.

Required: No

ProgramDateTimeIntervalSeconds

Inserts EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME tags in the output manifest at the interval that you specify. If you don't enter an interval, EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME tags aren't included in the manifest. The tags sync the stream to the wall clock so that viewers can seek to a specific time in the playback timeline on the player.

Irrespective of this parameter, if any ID3Timed metadata is in the HLS input, it is passed through to the HLS output.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 1209600.

Required: No

ScteHls

The SCTE configuration.

Type: ScteHls object

Required: No

StartTag

To insert an EXT-X-START tag in your HLS playlist, specify a StartTag configuration object with a valid TimeOffset. When you do, you can also optionally specify whether to include a PRECISE value in the EXT-X-START tag.

Type: StartTag object

Required: No

UrlEncodeChildManifest

When enabled, MediaPackage URL-encodes the query string for API requests for HLS child manifests to comply with AWS Signature Version 4 (SigV4) signature signing protocol. For more information, see AWS Signature Version 4 for API requests in AWS Identity and Access Management User Guide.

Type: Boolean

Required: No
