Viewing the smart crop setup - MediaLive

Viewing the smart crop setup

You can view information about the Elemental Inference features in a channel. You can view information on the MediaLive console or the Elemental Inference console.

Viewing the setup on the MediaLive console

On the MediaLive console, in the left navigation bar, choose Channels, then choose the channel to view. In the tabs in the middle of the page, choose AWS Elemental Inference. Information appears, including the following:

ID and ARN

The ID and ARN of the Elemental Inference feed that is associated with the channel.

The ID is identical to the last portion of the ARN of the feed. If you are interested in working with the feed using Elemental Inference directly, make a note of the ARN.

Status of the feed

These statuses are listed in lifetime order, from CREATING to ARCHIVED. Note the following:

  • A newly created feed typically transitions immediately from CREATING to AVAILABLE to ACTIVE. ACTIVE means that the feed is associated with the channel.

  • When MediaLive deletes a feed, its status changes to DELETED, then after a short period, it changes to ARCHIVED. There is no way to change the status of a feed that is DELETED or ARCHIVED. If you re-enable Elemental Inference features in a channel, MediaLive will create a new feed that has a new ID.

Feature panels

One panel appears for each Elemental Inference that you have enabled in the channel. Each panel includes the following information:

  • The type of feature.

  • The status of the feature, which will always be ENABLED. (If you disable the feature, the entire panel disappears, so you won't see DISABLED.)

  • Settings, which lists the names of all of the video encodes (video description) that are set up for smart crop. These video encodes might be in the same or different outputs.

Viewing the setup on the Elemental Inference console

To view information for a feed on the Elemental Inference console, see Creating an Elemental Inference workflow in the AWS Elemental Inference user guide.

Viewing the setup using the Elemental Inference CLI

To view information using an AWS API, use the GetFeed operation of Elemental Inference. For more information, see GetFeed in the AWS Elemental Inference API Reference.
