delay integer

Indicates the start delay in seconds. If the start delay value is greater than 0, then the position is mid-roll and the value indicates the start delay.

  • > 0: Mid-Roll (value indicates start delay in second)
  • 0: Pre-roll
  • -1: Generic mid-roll
  • -2: Generic post-roll
skip integer Indicates if the player will allow the video to be skipped, where 0 = no, 1 = yes.

skipafter integer Number of seconds a video must play before skipping is enabled; only applicable if the ad is skippable.

  • 6 Initiates on Entering Viewport with Sound Off by Default
playend integer

The event that causes playback to end, for example 2. This field can take the following values:

  • 1: On Video Completion or when Terminated by User.
