Hi guys, having trouble getting pre-roll videos to work.
My understanding is that I need a youtube pre-roll for youtube videos and vimeo for vimeo?
Could I potentially self-host a video for both? What is best practise here?

Hello Kerry,
yes, you should be able to self-host the video ad. You can mix selfhosted videos with YouTube or Vimeo.
What we haven’t fully tested is using YouTube as an ad in front of Vimeo and vice-versa.
However I’m noticing some other issues on your website – the first video “Youtube player with youtube video ad (pre-roll)” won’t play. It seems to be a conflict with the elementQuery.min.js script in your theme. Could you please let us know if you are also noticing this? Does is still happen with the default WordPress theme?
I’m also noticing that I can’t close the YouTube text/graphic ad. This is supposed to be fixed already (they changed the dimensions lately), so I’ll check again.
Thanks,
Martin
