News: Video support in OpenX
Wow. Looks like the first ever new feature for the OpenX ad server that has been tracked through The Guru’s unofficial development roadmap has now been released — it is now possible to deliver pre-roll, mid-roll, post-roll and overlay video ads with OpenX, when using the Open Source Flowplayer video system. Companion ads to go along with the video ads are also supported.
This is great news for OpenX users, many of who have been looking for this feature for years now; and the fact that the plugin has been built to work with an Open Source video player is excellent news for all publishers!
You can see a demo of a pre-roll video ad and an overlay ad, learn more about the features of the plugin, and download the plugin from the Flowplayer Open Ad Streamer plugin homepage.
The same site also mentions that this plugin will be part of the OpenX 2.8.2 release.
Please see the post on the OpenX 2.8.2 release which discusses the fact that this plugin is not actually part of the 2.8.2 release.
