Tell us about your request

What do you want us to build?

Which Amazon Chime SDK or feature area is this request for? All.

Tell us about the problem you are trying to solve and why is it hard?

Using media pipeline to capture the audio/video/content, and select specific streams and composite in a single view to broadcast. It can be a generic RTMPS endpoint, such as IVS channel, or Youtube Live.

This will be a managed service by simply calling media-pipeline API to invoke a new meeting agent like media-capture-pipeline.

How are you currently solving a problem?

Are there any workarounds or mitigations you have used? Why is it not working for you? Using broadcast demo: https://github.com/aws-samples/amazon-chime-meeting-broadcast-demo This needs to provision my own containers, not a managed fleet.

Additional context

Anything else we should know?

This would be great! Similar interface to MediaPipeline except instead of S3 it could be IVS. What is the ETA on this feature?

[steveRW]

I've been waiting for this feature. And, what would make this really useful would be control of the output to RTMP, youtube etc. Having the interface with all of the videos (webinar style) would not be that useful. What would be useful would be to have one video window at a time (ie the main speaker or someone they are interacting with) be sent full screen as output to the RTMP, etc. No one wants to watch a "Zoom Call" on livestream If you're broadcasting, you want to see the main speaker and at full screen and in HD.

@steveRW yeah, options would be great. Speaker or all view.
