Create Pipeline, Submit Job, and Poll to Completion

with Amazon Elastic Transcoder · Transcoding & Format Conversion

Create a pipeline, submit a transcoding job, and poll it until it finishes.

  1. Create the pipeline that ties the input bucket, output bucket, and IAM role together for subsequent jobs.
  2. Submit a transcoding job into the new pipeline using the supplied input and output keys and preset.
  3. Read the job and branch on its status, looping back while it is still Submitted or Progressing and ending once it reaches a terminal status.
