AWS Elemental MediaPackage released a technical specification detailing its supported input types, input codecs, and output codecs for live streaming. The document outlines compatibility with HLS and CMAF inputs, supporting video codecs like H.264, H.265, and AV1, and various audio and subtitle formats for delivery via TS, HLS, and DASH endpoint types.
The detailed specification clarifies MediaPackage's role in supporting current and future video codecs and delivery standards for live content workflows. This enables more precise planning for content providers utilizing AWS infrastructure, particularly for 4K and HDR content where H.265 is critical, and next-gen streaming with AV1. The industry should monitor how service providers integrate these capabilities for improved efficiency and quality in live stream distribution, especially the utilization of AV1 for CMAF-based deliveries.
