    12451245 
    12461246The "linearAd" object takes the following form: 
     
    15821582   * "enforceLinearAdsOnPlaylistSelection" - ensures that selections from a playlist enforce checks to determine if pre-roll(s) attached to show clips should be played first

    15851585 
    15861586This example uses the internal JW 5 playlist control. You will notice that the playlist shows "Open Video Ads Served Ads" in slots in the playlist. These are the scheduled pre-rolls that are to be played. Unless a playlist control explicitly identifies the OVA ads and excludes them from the display, they will appear as playlist items. 
     
    16301630To support overlays on live streams in JW Player 5, a new option "streamTimer" has been introduced. This option allows a "timer" to be started when the live stream starts to play. The timer generates time events every 10th of a second (by default) - these timing events are critical for OVA to receive so that it knows when to start playing the overlay. JW Player 5 does not generate these timing events on live streams by default. Flowplayer does - as a result this option is not required for the Flowplayer implementation. 
    16311631

    19931993The `additionalParamsForSWFCompanions` property takes an Array of Objects as an argument with each object representing a single param to add to the object/embed tagset - the fields specify a `name` and `value` to use when generating the additional object/embed markup.

    221822181. Use the standard "autostart" JW flashvar or "autoPlay" OVA configuration option - however this means that the player will also auto start when the page is loaded which may not be ideal.

    222222222. Use a new OVA option called "autoPlayOnExternalLoad". When this option is used, OVA will only auto start playback when the `jwplayer.load()` javascript call is used to trigger rescheduling. The option should be used as follows:

    223922393. Use the new OVA Javascript callback `onOVAReadyToPlay(initialisationCounter)` to be notified when OVA has completed ad scheduling as a result of the `jwplayer.load()` trigger. You can then use `jwplayer.play()` to start playback manually via Javascript. The "initialisationCounter" argument passed in the "onOVAReadyToPlay" callback can be used to identify whether OVA has started up as a result of the player being loaded for the first time or as a result of subsequent `jwplayer.load()` calls. When OVA first loads and completes scheduling, the value of "initialisationCounter" will be 0, then on each subsequent rescheduling operation, the value will be incremented by 1.
