AWS expanded MediaConnect capabilities to ingest Network Device Interface (NDI) streams directly, facilitating a seamless bridge between IP-based live production environments and cloud-based video distribution. This removes the need for custom transcoding or protocol conversion infrastructure.
By converting NDI feeds into transport streams like SRT, MediaConnect allows broadcasters to integrate existing NDI hardware and software ecosystems with AWS cloud services such as MediaLive and MediaPackage. This advancement streamlines media workflows and supports distributed live video production.
