Milestone ,12,playOnce not working with Flowplayer playlists,OVA for Flowplayer,,defect,paul,new,2010-08-05T14:06:19-04:00,2010-08-05T14:06:19-04:00,"JW 5.x is fixed - works perfectly.

Flowplayer is fundamentally broken. Mid-rolls can't be played once and the last post-roll won't be played once as the _player.next() doesn't seem to want to force the ""play again"" button to appear when skipping over the last post-roll. The last clip remains and is played.

Can't fix fully for FP - the mid-roll won't work and the final post-roll in a stream sequence won't playOnce. Moving to awaiting status while I talk with FP and see what's the best to do.",paul
Milestone ,23,JW-OAS: should be able to specify if preroll video is scaled or not,OVA for AS3,,defect,paul,new,2010-08-05T15:20:36-04:00,2010-08-05T15:20:36-04:00,"Reported by outnow.ch, Mar 03, 2010
when playing a preroll flv that does not match the size of the current player window, the flv is scaled to best fit the window. on large player windows, the results can be pretty ugly. 

as it seems there is no way to prevent scaling for prerolls.

Comment 1 by brian.betz, Apr 13, 2010
After investigation it seems that the elements of the original playlist, after manipulation by OAS, have a scaling value that is an Object rather than a string.

{url:'/path/file.flv' scaling:{value:'fit'}}

rather than the expected:

{url:'/path/file.flv' scaling:'fit'}

The Inline Ad elements are properly constructed but always set to 'scale'.

My previous comment is actually referring to the Flowplayer implementation.

Sorting for FP 0.5.0 RC2
Status: Started

Comment 4 by paul.schulz, Apr 20, 2010
Sorted for FP 0.5.0 RC2 - ads can now be scaled if they have the scaling values in the VAST response and the appropriate scaling option is turned on in the config - e.g.

	enforceLinearInteractiveAdScaling:Boolean:false;
	enforceLinearVideoAdScaling:Boolean:false;

See linear interactive ad examples for this working in action. Also scaling setting on playlist confirmed to be working properly in this RC (by the way, the clip.scaling value is an Object of MediaType as per the way that Flowplayer do it on the API)

Looking into JW scaling - not sure it's possible. Asking..

Comment 1 by paul.schulz, Apr 20, 2010
I think this is more of an OpenX issue rather than an Open Video Ads issue... have you logged this with the 
OpenX forum?
Status: Awaiting

Comment 2 by outnow.ch, Apr 20, 2010
openx doesnt seem to be receiving the relevant data (i.e. cookie) when using the OVA 
in internet explorer. so there's not much on openx's / server's side that can be 
done - it works in the firefox flash as expected. i expect this also being a problem 
with other adserver implementations that use cookies to store view data.

Comment 3 by outnow.ch, Apr 20, 2010
(it might also be a problem of the 10.1 beta version of the flash i was using then. 
i'll happily re-test it again with the next OVA release and a virgin installation of 
IE)

Comment 4 by albertmaranian, Apr 29, 2010
this is also an issue happening on my end, it works fine in FF, although it seems
that it's taking a while for FF to recognize the cookie sent by openx. But in chrome
and IE it just won't work. 

I have 8 videos in one page pointing to the same openx ad zone and that zone only has
1 video and set view limit to 1 per session. 

Is this an openx problem or OVA? Any ideas? Thanks

Comment 5 by dre240, Jun 22, 2010
Similar problem here, all browsers seem to require 2 impressions for the session capping to work. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Yeh, this is tricky.

The ad streamer actually schedules the ad in advance and places it 'instream"" using the Flowplayer API based on the calculated timings. If someone fast forwards, they in effect make the player miss the timing event to trigger the start of the ad.

What I'd have to do is ""force"" insertion of ads at the new timepoint after checking if any have been missed.

It's possible. Not sure how stable it would be... I'll need to look more into it...  I'll put on my TO DO list...

Here is my scenario,
While uploading a live stream we will add cue points on periodic basis (period between two cue points is not same) where these cue points have advertisement duration. 

Solution:-
1. OAS plugin can determine the cue point and get the advertisement clip from server to show it.

2. I am fine to do JS/AS coding but need some documentation to get advertisement clips from server based on cue point and insert into flow player playlist.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Setup:  1 pre-roll spot (configured with autoplay:false) and 1 clip/show (configured with autoplay:true)
2. Set the server to an invalid url (simulating the server is down)
3. The server returns an empty VAST response

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The VAST request is done, and, as there are no ads clips to add, ""nothing"" in the playlist gets the autoplay:false, and the clip autoplays.I see this is the expected output, but maybe not the ""desired"" output (for example, if one page has 3 videos pointing to a dead ads server, the 3 videos would autoplay...).Maybe (as i'm pretty new to this), i'm missing something (some config option..).I guess i can handle this issue by listening to events and some javascript, but i think it'd be interesting to have it out-of-the-box.

Please provide any additional information below.

This is somehow related to issue 177 (Lazy mode).Both issues would need a not-clip-related ""autoplay"".In the ""lazy load"" issue, setting ""autoplay"" to ""false"" in the clip, (so it doesnt autostart,and the ads request is done after clicking in ""play"" for the first clip) would not suffice;the plugin would have to change the clip's autoPlay to ""true"" so the clip plays after the ads.

If i can be of any help testing/debugging/fixing, feel free to contact!

Comment 1 by dashiad, Jun 11, 2010
To deal with this, i've added a ""pauseIfNoPreroll"" config option, that overrides any previous ""autoPlay"" setting calculated in OpenAdStreamer.as..I chose this way to support different ways of specifying splash images (as player container background, as its childnodes,or in-playlist), that behave differently and would need different ""pauseIfNoPreroll"" values.",paul

Hi Paul,

Request for comment on an advanced functionality:

I need to put overlay banners (images) and other kind of animated swf components on live streaming. Since live streaming has no exact beginning nor duration I need to ""push"" components during the live by manual click (administrator) or even bound to wall-clock time.

So, I have 1 live stream and (let's say) 300 players watching this with JW player. All players arrive (connect) at similar but different times.

I suppose, I would need to create kind of one to many broadcast component with some rtmp application server (Wowza) to be able to update and turn 
on/off the overlays in all the connected players. I woull call this ""broadcast component"".

Please tell me if you think it is possible to do inside the OVS plugin. I would like to develop this myself.
What do you think is the right sequence of steps to execute?

TIA
Haris

Comment 1 by haris@eu-softing.com, Apr 22, 2010
To put it more simply:

The part of the ""broadcast component"" is all clear to me.

I am looking for a way (internal API calls in OAS) to load and make overlays appear and disappear when I decide from my ""broadcast component"" while the live streaming is playing.

Does it exist? Can you point me in right direction please? Thanx",paul

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Latest version of Flowplayer (3.2.0)
2. Latest version of Flowplayer openvideoads (0.5.0)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When you do this, openvideoads loads the AD video but no the playlist.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Flowplayer 3.2.0

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Use flowplayer's youtube plugin (i got it from the plugins repository).It does work
2.Include openads plugin in flowplayer's configuration.An exception is thrown.The problem happens in a call to YouTubeStreamProvider/get clipURLResolver().Looks like there are no urlProviders. 
3.Modifying the code to add the urlProvider 'youtube' in the scheduledclip, makes the clip play again.

What is the expected output? Wha<t do you see instead?
Before setting the urlprovider in the scheduledclip, the youtube plugin is unable to play the video.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I've been using the 0.4.0 code to debug and try to find a fix, just used 0.5.0 RC2 to check if the problem was still present.

Please provide any additional information below.

Firstly, I would like to express my linking of the project. Very very nice.
Secondly, this is not a problem but an enhancement which I hope I can implement and contribute to the project. I need your comments first please...

I always use JWplayer with playlist XSPF type, even when playlist contains only 1 video. Reason for this is that for a couple of plugins I use <meta> tags in XSPF playlists to transfer data bound to playlist items to the plugin itself. Other reason is that I wish to keep the control in my application of the content of the playlist even for players embeded in other sites.

1. My problem is that I would like be able to control all possible item tags for the XSPF that is produced internally by the OpenAdStreamer plugin and given to JW

Where do you think is the correct place and the way to implement proxying of such tags?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I am trying to use the latest stable at the moment, 0.4.1.3

Please provide any additional information below.

This is a typical example of the playlist 
<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8""?>
<playlist version=""1"" xmlns=""http://xspf.org/ns/0/"">
<trackList><track>
<title>The Nature</title>
<creator>Dzanan Rebac</creator>
<meta rel=""streamer"">rtmp://10.0.0.20:1935/vod</meta>
<location>15_Priroda HD.flv</location>

<meta rel=""id"">15</meta>
<meta rel=""date"">26.03.2009</meta>
<meta rel=""embed"">---here there is alot of embed code---</meta>
</track>
</trackList>
</playlist>


Thanx

The first solution that comes in mind is to enable the VAST framework to start off with already existing playlist XSPF but I suppose this is not so easy?

If I add those data in some predefined structure to config.xml of the OpenAdStreamer plugin, what do you think?
Example:

            ""shows"": {
               ""baseURL"": ""rtmp://10.0.0.20/vod"",
               ""streams"": [
                   {
                       ""file"":""21_Artbeats_HD_Library_Demo_Reel.flv"",
                       ""duration"":""00:01:35"",
                       ""autostart"": true
                       ""meta"": [
                             {
                               ""id"":""1"",
                               ""embed"":""a lot of embed code..."",
                               ""date"":""12.8.2010""
                             }
                               ]

                   }
               ]
            },
