Vast Tester Adbutler

    Hi,
    i’ve some problems with a linear ad not showing up.
    I tried
    https://servedbyadbutler.com/vast.spark?setID=6464&ID=175543&pid=67465
    with https://developer.jwplayer.com/tools/ad-tester/?playerversion=8 and the overlay can be seen. If i use the Foliovision ad tester no image appears.
    Does the FV ad tester show linear media or is there a compatibility problem?
    Thanks, Florian

    Hello Florian,

    I can see that it only plays with JW Player. It doesn’t play in the Google ad testing tool either: https://developers.google.com/interactive-media-ads/docs/sdks/html5/vastinspector

    The image ads do work, like for example this one:

    https://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/ads?sz=480×70&iu=/124319096/external/single_ad_samples&ciu_szs=300×250&impl=s&gdfp_req=1&env=vp&output=vast&unviewed_position_start=1&cust_params=deployment%3Ddevsite%26sample_ct%3Dnonlinear&correlator=

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Thanks for your answer Martin.
    I’m trying to sort this issue out with adbutler.
    The support asked and can you perhaps help me?
    Does Flowplayer have any more detailed error logs around 2.98s — ad-playback-error? We tested it using a Flowplayer VAST tester and for linear media, it was throwing an error because there was no defined preroll linear media. Just wondering if you have, or can get any further detail on the error?

    Cheers,

    Rob

    Do you think you (or flow player) can help with an error log. Or is it easier to change to google dfp? do you have a list of tested adservers that will deliver overlays?
    Thanks, Florian

    Hi,
    it seems to work now. No idea why.

    Hello Florian,

    I can confirm that it works on my end too.

    We have a list of sample VAST tags which is a good place to start looking to the ad network company, but we haven’t updated that for a while and a lot of the links no longer work. So we will do that.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Thanks Martin!
    One last problem. I think something is mixed up with layers or css, i can’t click through. Please can you take a look?
    Thanks a lot, Florian

    Hello Florian,

    I inspected the ad HTML and I can see there is no link on the image. Also closing the ad and recalling it works.

    Thanks,
    Martin
