2nd view: don't show preroll

I think this is more of an OpenX issue rather than an Open Video Ads issue... have you logged this with the 
OpenX forum?

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.

(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)

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

Similar problem here, all browsers seem to require 2 impressions for the session capping to work. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
