Amazon IVS introduces Multitrack Video to save input costs

Today we are launching Multitrack Video, a new capability in Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS) which can save you up to 75% on live video input costs with standard channels. With Multitrack Video, you send multiple video quality renditions directly from your own device instead of using Amazon IVS for transcoding.

Multitrack Video is supported in OBS Studio. Once you enable Multitrack Video on your IVS channels, your broadcasters can simply check a box in OBS to automatically send an optimal set of video qualities based on their hardware and network capabilities. This enables viewers to watch in the best quality for their connection, while you pay $0.50 an hour for standard channel input compared to $2.00 an hour without Multitrack Video. For more pricing information, visit the Amazon IVS pricing page.

Amazon IVS is a managed live streaming solution that is designed to make low-latency or real-time video available to viewers around the world. Video ingest and delivery are available over a managed network of infrastructure optimized for live video. Visit the AWS region table for a full list of AWS Regions where the Amazon IVS console and APIs for control and creation of video streams are available.
