Configure a live stream example - example 25

Implement the open video ads watermark

Is it possible to support auto-sizing regions for all resourceTypes?

Implement a config option that allows file endings returned in the VAST data to 
be automatically 
stripped out

- (medium priority) if you wait for 29 seconds and click pause on the 30th 
second, then play is 
blocked, clicking on playhas no effect... if you can reproduce at 
http://www.bouncingminds.com/plugins/flowplayer/openvideoads/openadstreamer/late
st/exampl
es/rtmp-example05.html

At the moment only overlays of size 450 are supported with the right default 
region definitions - 
support all sizes - see AdSlot.configureDefaultRegions()

Implement a config option to allow events to be optionally re-fired on replay

Check pause/resume event tracking in the JW Player Open Ad Streamer based on 
the following 
events:

ControllerEvent.PLAY
Fired when the player toggles playback (playing/paused). Parameters:
state (Boolean): the new playback state. If true the player plays. If false the 
player pauses.

and also Mute/unmute
ontrollerEvent.MUTE
Fired when the sound is muted or unmuted. The current mute state is always 
available through 
the mute flashvar. Parameters:
state (Boolean): the new mute state. If true the player will mute.

ControllerEvent.VOLUME
Fired when the volume level is changed. The current volume is always available 
through the 
volume flashvar. Parameters:
percentage (Number): new volume percentage. Can be 0 to 100.

Clean up the way "metaData:true|false" is being configured for Flowplayer - can 
common clip 
properties be handled in the config somehow? For example, perhaps there should 
be a 
"playerSpecific: {}" stream level setting?

Check build against 3.1.3 build files when released:

in file framework/openvideoads.flowplayer.openadstreamer>vi build.xml

plugin-libs needs to be defined first - ie. moved up 3 lines

define here :        <property name="plugin-libs" 
value="lib/ova-vast-0.3.2.swc" />

then import        <import file="${devkit-dir}/plugin-build.xml"/>

Remove the need for a duration to be specified in the config

Allow "regions" to be defined at an Ad Group level, not just an Ad Slot level:

e.g. allow this:

            "ads": {
                "server": {
                    "type": "OpenX",
                    "vastURL": "http://openx.bouncingminds.com/openx/www/delivery/fc.php"
                },
                "schedule": [
                    {
                        "zone": "30",
                        "width": 450,
                        "height": 50,
                        "startTime": "00:00:05",
                        "duration": "15"
                    }
                ],
               "regions": {
                    "flash": "reserved-bottom-center-w450px-h50px-transparent"
                }
            },

Make sure example 15 works properly - selection based on bitrate

Turn off the "click me" sign on mouse over linear ads when in fullscreen mode 
as the mouse is 
always over the screen so it appears. Probably make this a config option so 
that it can be enabled if 
needed.

In openXVideoAds RC62, the VAST response is not returning a width and height:

<NonLinear id="overlay" width="" height="" resourceType="TEXT"> 
<Code>
<![CDATA[ <Title>My text ad title</Title> <Description>My text ad 
description</Description> 
<CallToAction>www.calltoaction.com</CallToAction> ]]>
</Code> 
<NonLinearClickThrough> 
<URL><![CDATA[http://www.bouncingminds.com/openx-2.8.2-rc22/www/delivery/ck.php?
oaparams=2__bannerid=45__zoneid=29__cb=1e4510fb9a__oadest=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.openx
.
org]]>
</URL> 
</NonLinearClickThrough> 
</NonLinear>

Overlay setup needs some very simple documentation

- "this advertisement runs for 30 seconds" should stay at the bottom right when 
fullscreen - it 
currently appears in the middle of the video when fullscreen

Flowplayer example (attached).   When I clicked the ad to go to the website, it 
wouldn't go to the 
absolute URL, but instead would append the URL to my OpenX VAST URL (as a 
relative URL).

<script type="text/javascript">
flowplayer("a.example", "../dist/flowplayer-3.1.3-dev.swf", {
    plugins: {
        controls: {
            autoHide: "always"
        },

        openAdStreamer: {
            url: '../dist/OpenAdStreamer.swf',
//            "url": "/fp-http/OpenAdStreamer.swf",

        "deliveryType": "streaming",
            "providers": { "rtmp": "../dist/flowplayer.rtmp-3.1.3-dev.swf" },

          "shows": {
            "baseURL": "rtmp://ne7c0nwbit.rtmphost.com/videoplayer",
              "streams": [ { "file":"mp4:the-black-hole.mp4", "duration":"00:00:10" } ]
          },

      "debug": {
              "debugger": "firebug",
              "levels": "fatal",
      },

        "ads": {
            "playOnce": false,
          "server": {
          "type": "OpenX",
              "vastURL": "http://localhost/282/www/delivery/fc.php",
             },
            "schedule": [
                {
                   "zone": "1",
                   "position": "pre-roll"
                }
            ]
      }
        }
    }
});
</script

could we remove the + after "this advertisement runs for 30 seconds" by 
default? It is better if users 
can't interact with such a small UI element. If publishers want to replace it 
with an image (James told 
me it's a feature?) then great let's show it. But by default it is better not 
to show it.

The VASTController has a createXSPFPlaylist() API but the other XML playlist 
types are not 
supported. This API needs to be cleaned up.

Current pages on the flowplayer site 
(http://www.flowplayer.org/plugins/advertising/) are 
incompatible with Flowplayer 3.1.3.

Replace them.

- (CRITICAL) Events pause, resume, unmute are not tracked on JW and flowplayer 
on the examples 
eg. 
http://www.bouncingminds.com/plugins/flowplayer/openvideoads/openadstreamer/late
st/exampl
es/rtmp-example05.html

Tried to move all the examples to use the official 3.1.3 FP release with the 
RTMP plugin (3.1.2) but 
the player kept reporting that the "rtmp" provider could not be found.

Is a 3.1.3 RTMP plugin needed ?

Framework needs API doc to be generated

The VAST-Standard also have a "wrapper-xml-version" for 3rd party-advertising.
Here is an example: http://www.server2005.de/wrapper.xml

Replay example 01 - the "click me" region doesn't show the second time around

Extend the overlay examples to illustrate "click to play video" - show each 
overlay 1 after each 
other.

Also update example 19 to show different overlay types.

When skipping a track in the example 02c (during the show stream) - it goes 
back to the start and 
replays from the pre-roll ad. Should stop when skipping at the end?

- (low priority) fullscreen event tracked OK for first video ad, not tracked 
for second video ad at  
http://www.bouncingminds.com/plugins/longtail/jwplayer/openvideoads/latest/examp
les/rtmp-
example04.html

"adParameters" allows OpenX targeting by "site variable", but it doesn't allow 
targeting by "source" - 
at the moment the source is statically defined in the OpenX URL.

Need to add support for "source" targeting:

Site - Variable: targeting in this manner will result in an ad being delivered 
to any ad request 
containing a specific variable, e.g. to limit by gender=male

Site - Source: The Site:Source targeting is similar to the Site - Variable, 
except it targets ads against 
the passed in "source=" value only

Support the display of multiple overlay ads in 1 showing with < > buttons to 
flip between them

Overlays should be minimised (with an icon bottom right of the screen) instead 
of fully closed

Implement an option that allows a vast server to fail over to another if no 
result returned

The mimeType configuration option is limiting...

If a mix of FLV and MP4 ads are to be served, how is that to be handled?

"mimeType:any" is probably needed

Implement minimise button on the overlays/regions

Setup the following standard URLs to point to the respective doc/examples pages:

DOCUMENTATION

www.openvideoads.org/doc/openadstreamer/flowplayer/index.html
www.openvideoads.org/doc/openadstreamer/jwplayer/index.html
www.openvideoads.org/doc/vast-as3-framework/index.html

EXAMPLES

www.openvideoads.org/examples/openadstreamer/flowplayer/index.html

For some reason, the ad notice is not showing on full screen, but other regions 
seem to be 
positioning correctly.

Example 01 for ad-notice defect, example 19 for region positioning correctly.

Flowplayer only.

Change naming of "selectionCriteria" to "adTags"

Is there something going on with the alpha setting on the text ad overlay 
styling - bold and 
standard text looks washed out...

JW Player examples are reported to not work on IE8

Sometimes the ad notice for JW Player is positioned the width of the control 
bar too high at the 
bottom... (standard screen)

Image overlays are not returning the creativeType in the VAST response which 
stops them from 
working:

<NonLinearAds> 
<NonLinear id="overlay" width="450" height="50" resourceType="static">
<Code>
http://www.bouncingminds.com/openx-2.8.2-
rc22/www/images/8e19787394a3c7870acc4c4c16fe2172.gif
</Code> 
</NonLinear> 
</NonLinearAds> 

Support pseudo-streaming provider and look at cleaning up "deliveryType" so 
that "pseudo-
streaming" can be specified somehow

Flowplayer RTMP example 04 fails to play past the first pre-roll and show 
stream. The player just 
stops. Changing "playOnce" to true doesn't make any difference.

Is the problem something to do with "autoPlay" - clicking the play button 
starts the first post-roll 
ad (which is correct) and then it stops after the show stream... 

Perhaps the default behavior for the Flowplayer Open Ad Streamer should be to 
"autoPlay:true" 
unless otherwise stated?

At the moment, with autoPlay:false, the player is stopping after the show 
stream as that's the 
default behaviour

At the moment, region selection is based a pre-defined "region ID" being 
associated with an Ad 
Slot. Regions should be selected based on size. This is important if ads are to 
be centered (e.g. 
flash ones for instance).

For 300x50, the following region should be selected:
    reserved-bottom-center-w300px-h50px-transparent

For 450x50, the following region should be selected:
    reserved-bottom-center-w450px-h50px-transparent

Work out how to do this.

Add the ability to support a countdown ad notice

RE: overlay at 
http://www.bouncingminds.com/plugins/flowplayer/openvideoads/openadstreamer/late
st/exampl
es/all-example31.html

I don't see playAdsOnce in the code, so I assume overlays should play again if 
you go back in the 
stream? 
On first play, overlay shows at 5 seconds, if I rewind back to the beginning 
the overlay doesn't 
show again

Probably a bug?

For flowplayer and JW player, add an example that is:

Overlay, click to video ad, click to website.

Move everyone from openx-iab-vast project site to open-video-ads.

Flowplayer example (attached).  I tried to emulate rtmp-example02.html 
(pre-roll + show) from 
the Google code site.  I was able to successfully see a pre-roll ad.  Then the 
player just hung and 
I had to click the player and hit "play" again to start the show stream.
