RTMP .mov ad doesn't play - security violation reported

[paul]

When the following ad is to be played by OVA for JW5, a security violation is reported and the ad does not play:

<MediaFiles> <MediaFile delivery="streaming" bitrate="400" width="640" height="480" type="video/x-mp4"> <URL><![CDATA[rtmp://ipmedia.mpv.miisolutions.net/ipmedia/_definst_/mp4:flash/fms/in-and-outros/olma2011_sponsoren_preroll_itv.mov]]></URL> </MediaFile> </MediaFiles>

Ok, I've found the source of the problem. That's the good news. The bad news is that I don't know the reason why it's a problem and I need to consult the player team to work out if this can work.

The problem comes down to the "rtmp.loadbalance" setting that you have on the RMTP show stream. It appears that RTMP ads won't play when that option is configured. I don't understand the technical reason for it, and further investigation is required, but it's definitely that option.

If I take that option out of your config, the ad plays but the show stream won't.

Let me consult some more informed people on the "rtmp.loadbalance" option and see if I can find a solution for you...

Solution is to specify the loadbalance option as follows:

'playlist': [

{

'file':' http://dev.internettv.ch/api/video/smill/gallustv-ch/ax7w55t6.smil',
'provider':'rtmp',
'rtmp.loadbalance':'true'

}

],

Having it at the player level impacts OVA clips as well.
