A [Live Event](https://docs.microsoft.com/rest/api/media/liveevents) can be one of two types: pass-through and live encoding. The types are set during creation using these properties:
34
+
35
+
***LiveEventEncodingType.None** - An on-premises live encoder sends a multiple bitrate stream. The ingested streams passes through the Live Event without any further processing.
36
+
***LiveEventEncodingType.Standard** - An on-premises live encoder sends a single-bitrate stream to the Live Event and Media Services creates multiple bitrate streams. If the contribution feed is of 720p or higher resolution, the **Default720p** preset will encode a set of 6 resolution/bit rate pairs.
37
+
***LiveEventEncodingType.Premium1080p** - An on-premises live encoder sends a single-bitrate stream to the Live Event and Media Services creates multiple bitrate streams. The Default1080p preset specifies the output set of resolution/bit rate pairs.
When using the pass-through **Live Event**, you rely on your on-premises live encoder to generate a multiple bitrate video stream and send that as the contribution feed to the Live Event (using RTMP or fragmented-MP4 protocol). The Live Event then carries through the incoming video streams without any further processing. Such a pass-through LiveEvent is optimized for long-running live events or 24x365 linear live streaming. When creating this type of Live Event, specify None (LiveEventEncodingType.None).

You can send the contribution feed at resolutions up to 4K and at a frame rate of 60 frames/second, with either H.264/AVC or H.265/HEVC video codecs, and AAC (AAC-LC, HE-AACv1, or HE-AACv2) audio codec. See the [Live Event types comparison](live-event-types-comparison.md) article for more details.

Once the **Live Event** starts receiving the contribution feed, you can use its preview endpoint to preview and validate that you are receiving the live stream before further publishing. After you have checked that the preview stream is good, you can use the LiveEvent to make the live stream available for delivery through one or more (pre-created) **Streaming Endpoints**. To accomplish this, you create a new [Live Output](https://docs.microsoft.com/rest/api/media/liveoutputs) on the **Live Event**.
