NAME

Paws::KinesisVideoMedia - Perl Interface to AWS Amazon Kinesis Video Streams Media

SYNOPSIS

  use Paws;
  my $obj = Paws->service('KinesisVideoMedia');
  my $res = $obj->Method(
    Arg1 => $val1,
    Arg2 => [ 'V1', 'V2' ],
    # if Arg3 is an object, the HashRef will be used as arguments to the constructor
    # of the arguments type
    Arg3 => { Att1 => 'Val1' },
    # if Arg4 is an array of objects, the HashRefs will be passed as arguments to
    # the constructor of the arguments type
    Arg4 => [ { Att1 => 'Val1'  }, { Att1 => 'Val2' } ],
  );

DESCRIPTION

For the AWS API documentation, see <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/goto/WebAPI/kinesisvideo-2017-09-30>

METHODS

GetMedia

StartSelector => Paws::KinesisVideoMedia::StartSelector
[StreamARN => Str]
[StreamName => Str]

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::KinesisVideoMedia::GetMedia

Returns: a Paws::KinesisVideoMedia::GetMediaOutput instance

Use this API to retrieve media content from a Kinesis video stream. In the request, you identify the stream name or stream Amazon Resource Name (ARN), and the starting chunk. Kinesis Video Streams then returns a stream of chunks in order by fragment number.

You must first call the "GetDataEndpoint" API to get an endpoint. Then send the "GetMedia" requests to this endpoint using the --endpoint-url parameter (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/).

When you put media data (fragments) on a stream, Kinesis Video Streams stores each incoming fragment and related metadata in what is called a "chunk." For more information, see PutMedia (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesisvideostreams/latest/dg/API_dataplane_PutMedia.html). The "GetMedia" API returns a stream of these chunks starting from the chunk that you specify in the request.

The following limits apply when using the "GetMedia" API:

A client can call "GetMedia" up to five times per second per stream.
Kinesis Video Streams sends media data at a rate of up to 25 megabytes per second (or 200 megabits per second) during a "GetMedia" session.

If an error is thrown after invoking a Kinesis Video Streams media API, in addition to the HTTP status code and the response body, it includes the following pieces of information:

"x-amz-ErrorType" HTTP header – contains a more specific error type in addition to what the HTTP status code provides.
"x-amz-RequestId" HTTP header – if you want to report an issue to AWS, the support team can better diagnose the problem if given the Request Id.

Both the HTTP status code and the ErrorType header can be utilized to make programmatic decisions about whether errors are retry-able and under what conditions, as well as provide information on what actions the client programmer might need to take in order to successfully try again.

For more information, see the Errors section at the bottom of this topic, as well as Common Errors (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesisvideostreams/latest/dg/CommonErrors.html).

PAGINATORS

Paginator methods are helpers that repetively call methods that return partial results
