Overview

Name	playback_configurations
Type	Resource
Description	Resource schema for AWS::MediaTailor::PlaybackConfiguration
Id	aws.mediatailor.playback_configurations

Fields

Name	Datatype	Description
ad_decision_server_url	string	The URL for the ad decision server (ADS). This includes the specification of static parameters and placeholders for dynamic parameters. AWS Elemental MediaTailor substitutes player-specific and session-specific parameters as needed when calling the ADS. Alternately, for testing you can provide a static VAST URL. The maximum length is 25,000 characters.
avail_suppression	object	The configuration for avail suppression, also known as ad suppression. For more information about ad suppression, see Ad Suppression (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/mediatailor/latest/ug/ad-behavior.html).
bumper	object	The configuration for bumpers. Bumpers are short audio or video clips that play at the start or before the end of an ad break. To learn more about bumpers, see Bumpers (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/mediatailor/latest/ug/bumpers.html).
cdn_configuration	object	The configuration for using a content delivery network (CDN), like Amazon CloudFront, for content and ad segment management.
configuration_aliases	undefined	The player parameters and aliases used as dynamic variables during session initialization. For more information, see Domain Variables.
dash_configuration	object	The configuration for DASH content.
live_pre_roll_configuration	object	The configuration for pre-roll ad insertion.
manifest_processing_rules	object	The configuration for manifest processing rules. Manifest processing rules enable customization of the personalized manifests created by MediaTailor.
name	string	The identifier for the playback configuration.
personalization_threshold_seconds	integer	Defines the maximum duration of underfilled ad time (in seconds) allowed in an ad break. If the duration of underfilled ad time exceeds the personalization threshold, then the personalization of the ad break is abandoned and the underlying content is shown. This feature applies to ad replacement in live and VOD streams, rather than ad insertion, because it relies on an underlying content stream. For more information about ad break behavior, including ad replacement and insertion, see Ad Behavior in AWS Elemental MediaTailor (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/mediatailor/latest/ug/ad-behavior.html).
session_initialization_endpoint_prefix	string	The URL that the player uses to initialize a session that uses client-side reporting.
hls_configuration	object	The configuration for HLS content.
playback_configuration_arn	string	The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the playback configuration.
playback_endpoint_prefix	string	The URL that the player accesses to get a manifest from MediaTailor. This session will use server-side reporting.
slate_ad_url	string	The URL for a high-quality video asset to transcode and use to fill in time that's not used by ads. AWS Elemental MediaTailor shows the slate to fill in gaps in media content. Configuring the slate is optional for non-VPAID configurations. For VPAID, the slate is required because MediaTailor provides it in the slots that are designated for dynamic ad content. The slate must be a high-quality asset that contains both audio and video.
tags	array	The tags to assign to the playback configuration.
transcode_profile_name	string	The name that is used to associate this playback configuration with a custom transcode profile. This overrides the dynamic transcoding defaults of MediaTailor. Use this only if you have already set up custom profiles with the help of AWS Support.
video_content_source_url	string	The URL prefix for the parent manifest for the stream, minus the asset ID. The maximum length is 512 characters.
region	string	AWS region.
