[ { "type": "api-change", "category": "MediaLive", "description": "This release allows you to now turn on Quality-Defined Variable Bitrate (QVBR) encoding for your AWS Elemental MediaLive channels. You can now deliver a consistently high-quality video viewing experience while reducing overall distribution bitrates by using Quality-Defined Variable Bitrate (QVBR) encoding with AWS Elemental MediaLive. QVBR is a video compression technique that automatically adjusts output bitrates to the complexity of source content and only use the bits required to maintain a defined level of quality. This means using QVBR encoding, you can save on distribution cost, while maintaining, or increasing video quality for your viewers." }, { "type": "api-change", "category": "Route53", "description": "This change allows customers to disable health checks." }, { "type": "api-change", "category": "AppStream", "description": "This API update adds support for creating, managing, and deleting users in the AppStream 2.0 user pool." } ]
