AWS – Amazon Interactive Video Service introduces Advanced channel types for flexible input encoding

You now have the option to create an Amazon Interactive Video Service (Amazon IVS) channel using the new Advanced-HD or Advanced-SD channel types, in addition to the original Basic or Standard channel types. Similar to Standard channels, Advanced channel types provide multiple qualities of output, allowing better playback quality across a range of devices and network conditions.
