Properties

NameTypeDescription
Public Property AfdSignaling Amazon.MediaConvert.AfdSignaling

Gets and sets the property AfdSignaling. This setting only applies to H.264, H.265, and MPEG2 outputs. Use Insert AFD signaling to specify whether the service includes AFD values in the output video data and what those values are. * Choose None to remove all AFD values from this output. * Choose Fixed to ignore input AFD values and instead encode the value specified in the job. * Choose Auto to calculate output AFD values based on the input AFD scaler data.

Public Property AntiAlias Amazon.MediaConvert.AntiAlias

Gets and sets the property AntiAlias. The anti-alias filter is automatically applied to all outputs. The service no longer accepts the value DISABLED for AntiAlias. If you specify that in your job, the service will ignore the setting.

Public Property CodecSettings Amazon.MediaConvert.Model.VideoCodecSettings

Gets and sets the property CodecSettings. Video codec settings contains the group of settings related to video encoding. The settings in this group vary depending on the value that you choose for Video codec. For each codec enum that you choose, define the corresponding settings object. The following lists the codec enum, settings object pairs. * AV1, Av1Settings * AVC_INTRA, AvcIntraSettings * FRAME_CAPTURE, FrameCaptureSettings * H_264, H264Settings * H_265, H265Settings * MPEG2, Mpeg2Settings * PRORES, ProresSettings * UNCOMPRESSED, UncompressedSettings * VC3, Vc3Settings * VP8, Vp8Settings * VP9, Vp9Settings * XAVC, XavcSettings

Public Property ColorMetadata Amazon.MediaConvert.ColorMetadata

Gets and sets the property ColorMetadata. Choose Insert for this setting to include color metadata in this output. Choose Ignore to exclude color metadata from this output. If you don't specify a value, the service sets this to Insert by default.

Public Property Crop Amazon.MediaConvert.Model.Rectangle

Gets and sets the property Crop. Use Cropping selection to specify the video area that the service will include in the output video frame.

Public Property DropFrameTimecode Amazon.MediaConvert.DropFrameTimecode

Gets and sets the property DropFrameTimecode. Applies only to 29.97 fps outputs. When this feature is enabled, the service will use drop-frame timecode on outputs. If it is not possible to use drop-frame timecode, the system will fall back to non-drop-frame. This setting is enabled by default when Timecode insertion is enabled.

Public Property FixedAfd System.Int32

Gets and sets the property FixedAfd. Applies only if you set AFD Signaling to Fixed. Use Fixed to specify a four-bit AFD value which the service will write on all frames of this video output.

Public Property Height System.Int32

Gets and sets the property Height. Use Height to define the video resolution height, in pixels, for this output. To use the same resolution as your input: Leave both Width and Height blank. To evenly scale from your input resolution: Leave Height blank and enter a value for Width. For example, if your input is 1920x1080 and you set Width to 1280, your output will be 1280x720.

Public Property Position Amazon.MediaConvert.Model.Rectangle

Gets and sets the property Position. Use Selection placement to define the video area in your output frame. The area outside of the rectangle that you specify here is black.

Public Property RespondToAfd Amazon.MediaConvert.RespondToAfd

Gets and sets the property RespondToAfd. Use Respond to AFD to specify how the service changes the video itself in response to AFD values in the input. * Choose Respond to clip the input video frame according to the AFD value, input display aspect ratio, and output display aspect ratio. * Choose Passthrough to include the input AFD values. Do not choose this when AfdSignaling is set to NONE. A preferred implementation of this workflow is to set RespondToAfd to and set AfdSignaling to AUTO. * Choose None to remove all input AFD values from this output.

Public Property ScalingBehavior Amazon.MediaConvert.ScalingBehavior

Gets and sets the property ScalingBehavior. Specify the video Scaling behavior when your output has a different resolution than your input. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/mediaconvert/latest/ug/video-scaling.html

Public Property Sharpness System.Int32

Gets and sets the property Sharpness. Use Sharpness setting to specify the strength of anti-aliasing. This setting changes the width of the anti-alias filter kernel used for scaling. Sharpness only applies if your output resolution is different from your input resolution. 0 is the softest setting, 100 the sharpest, and 50 recommended for most content.

Public Property TimecodeInsertion Amazon.MediaConvert.VideoTimecodeInsertion

Gets and sets the property TimecodeInsertion. Applies only to H.264, H.265, MPEG2, and ProRes outputs. Only enable Timecode insertion when the input frame rate is identical to the output frame rate. To include timecodes in this output, set Timecode insertion to PIC_TIMING_SEI. To leave them out, set it to DISABLED. Default is DISABLED. When the service inserts timecodes in an output, by default, it uses any embedded timecodes from the input. If none are present, the service will set the timecode for the first output frame to zero. To change this default behavior, adjust the settings under Timecode configuration. In the console, these settings are located under Job > Job settings > Timecode configuration. Note - Timecode source under input settings does not affect the timecodes that are inserted in the output. Source under Job settings > Timecode configuration does.

Public Property VideoPreprocessors Amazon.MediaConvert.Model.VideoPreprocessor

Gets and sets the property VideoPreprocessors. Find additional transcoding features under Preprocessors. Enable the features at each output individually. These features are disabled by default.

Public Property Width System.Int32

Gets and sets the property Width. Use Width to define the video resolution width, in pixels, for this output. To use the same resolution as your input: Leave both Width and Height blank. To evenly scale from your input resolution: Leave Width blank and enter a value for Height. For example, if your input is 1920x1080 and you set Height to 720, your output will be 1280x720.
