/AWS1/CL_MDCAUTOMATEDABRSTGS

Use automated ABR to have MediaConvert set up the renditions in your ABR package for you automatically, based on characteristics of your input video. This feature optimizes video quality while minimizing the overall size of your ABR package.

CONSTRUCTOR

IMPORTING

Optional arguments:

IV_MAXABRBITRATE TYPE /AWS1/MDC__INTEGERMIN100000M00 /AWS1/MDC__INTEGERMIN100000M00

Specify the maximum average bitrate for MediaConvert to use in your automated ABR stack. If you don't specify a value, MediaConvert uses 8,000,000 (8 mb/s) by default. The average bitrate of your highest-quality rendition will be equal to or below this value, depending on the quality, complexity, and resolution of your content. Note that the instantaneous maximum bitrate may vary above the value that you specify.

IV_MAXRENDITIONS TYPE /AWS1/MDC__INTEGERMIN3MAX15 /AWS1/MDC__INTEGERMIN3MAX15

Optional. The maximum number of renditions that MediaConvert will create in your automated ABR stack. The number of renditions is determined automatically, based on analysis of each job, but will never exceed this limit. When you set this to Auto in the console, which is equivalent to excluding it from your JSON job specification, MediaConvert defaults to a limit of 15.

IV_MINABRBITRATE TYPE /AWS1/MDC__INTEGERMIN100000M00 /AWS1/MDC__INTEGERMIN100000M00

Specify the minimum average bitrate for MediaConvert to use in your automated ABR stack. If you don't specify a value, MediaConvert uses 600,000 (600 kb/s) by default. The average bitrate of your lowest-quality rendition will be near this value. Note that the instantaneous minimum bitrate may vary below the value that you specify.

IT_RULES TYPE /AWS1/CL_MDCAUTOMATEDABRRULE=>TT___LISTOFAUTOMATEDABRRULE TT___LISTOFAUTOMATEDABRRULE

Optional. Use Automated ABR rules to specify restrictions for the rendition sizes MediaConvert will create in your ABR stack. You can use these rules if your ABR workflow has specific rendition size requirements, but you still want MediaConvert to optimize for video quality and overall file size.


Queryable Attributes

MaxAbrBitrate

Specify the maximum average bitrate for MediaConvert to use in your automated ABR stack. If you don't specify a value, MediaConvert uses 8,000,000 (8 mb/s) by default. The average bitrate of your highest-quality rendition will be equal to or below this value, depending on the quality, complexity, and resolution of your content. Note that the instantaneous maximum bitrate may vary above the value that you specify.
