Lecturer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 4/28/2023 "We use MediaPackage for producing live streaming content." 4.5/5 What do you like best about AWS Elemental MediaPackage? We use MediaLive to capture live input streams and pipe them through MediaPackage, which then distributes the content to end users via its endpoints. This process is pretty seamless and reliable. We enjoy the experience so far! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about AWS Elemental MediaPackage? We tried to pipe video assets from S3 to MediaPackage to serve fixed-media content, but that process isn't very straightforward and the automation took more effort than necessary. Apparently the MediaPackage is also very sensitive about the asset format, so we gave up on that. It would be ideal to unify live streaming and media assets with MediaPackage though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is AWS Elemental MediaPackage solving and how is that benefiting you? It lets us pipe live video content (RTMP) to end users in a scalable fashion. The APIs are easy to use too, so our custom-built system can create & delete MediaLive + MediaPackage pairs fairly easily and reliably. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
