To enable content quality analysis for a router input

Run the update-router-input command with the --content-quality-analysis-configuration parameter:

aws mediaconnect update-router-input \
  --arn "routerInputARN" \
  --content-quality-analysis-configuration '{
    "ContentLevel": {
      "BlackFrames": {"State": "ENABLED", "ThresholdSeconds": <int>},
      "FrozenFrames": {"State": "ENABLED", "ThresholdSeconds": <int>},
      "SilentAudio": {"State": "ENABLED", "ThresholdSeconds": <int>}
    }
  }'

Note the following:
