onStart function not working on Flowplayer clips with OVA

[paul]

When OVA is configured, the onStart() javascript methods on a clip no longer work.

True.. this seems to be because OVA creates a new playlist and the javascript settings aren't carried through to the show clips in the new playlist. Need to find out how to carry them through.

In the meantime, there is a work-around with an approach like:

<script>
flowplayer(your-usual-flowplayer-setup-here);
$f().onStart(function(clip) {

if(clip.ovaAd) {

alert("this is an ad");

}
else alert("this is a show clip and the URL is " + clip.url);

});
</script>
