Proper CMAF config for media convert

Question

I am using AWS lambda to create a job for media convert (using python). I was convert an input video in CMAF H265 format, but I am unable to figure out the correct settings for this. The createJob function returns an error :

`botocore.errorfactory.BadRequestException: An error occurred (BadRequestException) when calling the CreateJob operation: /outputGroups/0/outputs/0: Should match exactly one schema defined in "oneOf"`

The error displayed in log files of  lambda has only this information and does not mention the exact fields which are missing the validation. When i compare my config with the sdk code, I am unable to find the possible error. Please help here.

Since the error is in outputs, including the corresponding object:

Answer

Hi there,

Looking at your Output config JSON, I see that you have **MUXED** the Video and Audio for your CMAF output.
What that means is that you have included the Video and Audio under a single output. Currently it looks like this:

```
CMAF Output Group: |
                   . -> Output-1:|
                                 . ->Video-Data,
                                 . ->Audio-Data
```

Per CMAF architecture, this is an incorrect way of designing a CMAF stream. The correct way would be to produce the same Video and Audio parameters, but in their separate outputs. This should look something like this:
```
CMAF Output Group: |
                   . -> Output-1:|
                                 . ->Video-Data
                   . -> Output-2:|
                                 . ->Audio-Data
```
You may try the following Output JSON instead of the one shared above:
