Ads / Pre-Rolls

The CameraTag <player> has the ability to pre-roll content before your video or audio content. This content can come from one of two sources:

  • A CameraTag Video: You may specify the UUID of a CameraTag Video asset to be used as the <player> preroll content. In addition to the video uuid you may also specify:
    • The Skip Offset: The number of seconds the user must watch the preroll before being allowed to skip
    • Click URL: The URL to visit if / when the user clicks on the preroll
    • Impression Tracking URL: A URL to hit when a user clicks on the preroll (for stats purposes)

  • A 3rd Party Ad Server You may chose to have a 3d party Ad Server serve up preroll ads before your content. CameraTag supports VAST, VPAID and Google IMA Ad Servers. Simply enter the URL of your Ad Server and you're off an running.

Custom Error / Processing Media

When an is transcoding, or has failed to transcode CameraTag will serve up a placeholder media. You can now use a CameraTag asset in your account as the transcoding and/or error placeholders. Simply supply the UUID of an existing asset you would like to use for each one of the custom placeholders.
