# MaximumDuration

The maximum amount of video and audio to ingest, before stopping ingestion. If you do not set this parameter, there is no limit on the amount of video and audio that is ingested.

You can set this parameter to ingest part of a video file, or a fixed amount of a continuous stream.

If the maximum duration is reached, Media Server stops ingestion but does finish processing any frames that have already been ingested.

Type: | Time duration The value of this parameter is a time duration. Specify the duration in the following format:
         1years 2months 3weeks 4days 5hours 6minutes 7.8seconds
You can omit any of the individual durations when they are not required:
         6minutes 7seconds
You can also shorten the string by abbreviating the units to their first letter (months abbreviates to m, minutes to n):
         6n 7s
If you want to specify the value in seconds, no units are required:
         60
The following are all equivalent:
         1minute 3seconds
         1n 3s
         63s
         63
