The name of the generated file. The default is manifest with the
extension suffix corresponding to the Manifest
[type][google.cloud.video.livestream.v1.Manifest.type]. If multiple
manifests are added to the channel, each must have a unique file name.
Maximum number of segments that this manifest holds. Once the manifest
reaches this maximum number of segments, whenever a new segment is added to
the manifest, the oldest segment will be removed from the manifest.
The minimum value is 3 and the default value is 5.
How long to keep a segment on the output Google Cloud Storage bucket after
it is removed from the manifest. This field should be large enough to cover
the manifest propagation delay. Otherwise, a player could receive 404
errors while accessing segments which are listed in the manifest that the
player has, but were already deleted from the output Google Cloud Storage
bucket. Default value is 60s.
If both segment_keep_duration and
[RetentionConfig.retention_window_duration][google.cloud.video.livestream.v1.RetentionConfig.retention_window_duration]
are set,
[RetentionConfig.retention_window_duration][google.cloud.video.livestream.v1.RetentionConfig.retention_window_duration]
is used and segment_keep_duration is ignored.
