Starting today, you can use E-RTMP (Enhanced Real-Time Messaging Protocol) multitrack video to send multiple video qualities to your Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS) stages. This feature enables adaptive bitrate streaming, allowing viewers to watch in the best quality for their network connection. Multitrack video is supported in OBS Studio and complements the existing simulcast capabilities in the IVS broadcast SDK. There is no additional cost for using multitrack video with Real-Time Streaming. Amazon IVS is a managed live streaming solution designed to make low-latency or real-time video available to viewers around the world. Visit the AWS region table for a full list of AWS Regions where the Amazon IVS console and APIs for control and creation of video streams are available. To learn more, please visit the Amazon IVS RTMP ingest documentation page.

https://aws.amazon.com/ivs/ now supports media ingest via interface VPC endpoints powered by https://aws.amazon.com/privatelink/. With this launch, you can securely broadcast RTMP(S) streams to IVS Low-Latency channels or IVS Real-Time stages without sending traffic over the public internet. You can create interface VPC endpoints to privately connect your applications to Amazon IVS from within your VPC or from on-premises environments over https://aws.amazon.com/directconnect/. This provides private, reliable connectivity for your live video workflows. Amazon IVS support for media ingest via interface VPC endpoints is available today in the US West (Oregon), Europe (Frankfurt), and Europe (Ireland) AWS Regions. Standard AWS PrivateLink pricing applies. See the https://aws.amazon.com/privatelink/pricing/ page for details.

Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS) Real-Time Streaming now supports participant replication, allowing you to copy a participant from one IVS stage to another. With this capability, participants can appear in multiple stages simultaneously, facilitating cross-stage interactions. One common use case in social live streaming applications is competitive modes, where two streamers are temporarily matched so they can interact with each other in real time. With participant replication, you can copy a participant to another stage and allow viewers of each video to see both streamers. https://aws.amazon.com/ivs/ is a managed live streaming solution that is designed to make low-latency or real-time video available to viewers around the world. Video ingest and delivery are available over a managed network of infrastructure optimized for live video. Visit the https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/regional-product-services/ for a full list of AWS Regions where the Amazon IVS console and APIs for control and creation of video streams are available. To learn more, please visit the participant replication https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ivs/latest/RealTimeUserGuide/rt-participant-replication.html page.  

Starting today, you can record thumbnail images in Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS) Real-Time Streaming. When thumbnail recording is enabled, Amazon IVS automatically generates images at the interval you configure and stores them in the Amazon S3 bucket you select. Thumbnails can be used for preview images in content discovery or as part of content moderation workflows. There is no additional cost for enabling thumbnail recording, but standard Amazon S3 storage and request costs apply. https://aws.amazon.com/ivs/ is a managed live streaming solution that is designed to make low-latency or real-time video available to viewers around the world.

Today we are launching Multitrack Video, a new capability in Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS) which can save you up to 75% on live video input costs with standard channels. With Multitrack Video, you send multiple video quality renditions directly from your own device instead of using Amazon IVS for transcoding. Multitrack Video is supported in OBS Studio. Once you enable Multitrack Video on your IVS channels, your broadcasters can simply check a box in OBS to automatically send an optimal set of video qualities based on their hardware and network capabilities. This enables viewers to watch in the best quality for their connection, while you pay $0.50 an hour for standard channel input compared to $2.00 an hour without Multitrack Video.
