Outputs in MediaConnect

Outputs are the different destinations where you want MediaConnect to send the content of your flow. You can add, remove, and disable outputs at any time, even when the flow is active. A disabled output will stop steaming content to its destination and won't incur data transfer costs. These outputs are sent to the IP address that you specify. This option is useful if you intend to send your content to an on-premises encoder.

For transport stream flows, you can grant an entitlement to share your content with another AWS account (subscriber account). When the subscriber creates a flow using your content as the source, AWS Elemental MediaConnect generates an output on your flow.

Note

If you disable an entitlement after the subscriber creates a flow based on that entitlement, the associated output remains on your flow. This output continues to counts toward your maximum number of outputs. To delete an output that's associated with an entitlement, revoke the entitlement.
