AWS Elemental MediaLive added support for SRT Listener mode on inputs and outputs, allowing streaming workflows where the server waits for incoming connections rather than initiating them. This reduces complex firewall setups and removes the need for public IP addresses on source or destination devices.
Both SRT Caller and Listener modes now coexist, giving users greater flexibility in connection initiation. The feature supports encrypted transmission with configurable latency, facilitating secure and adaptable contribution and distribution of live video streams across all regions where MediaLive is available.
