Identifying content in an HLS source
The content in an HLS container is always a transport stream (TS) that contains only one video rendition (program).
Obtain identifying information from the content provider.

Details |
Information to obtain |
|---|---|---|
| Video | You don't need identifying information. MediaLive always extracts the single video asset. | |
| Audio | The source might include multiple audio PIDs. | Obtain the PIDs or three-character language codes of the languages that you want.
We recommend that you obtain the PIDs for the audio assets. They are a more reliable way of identifying an audio asset. |
| Captions | Embedded | Obtain the languages in the channel numbers. For example, "channel 1 is French" |
