Pre Roll Video Notes: Other Info
Internet Broadcasting serves the actual video. Client should provide a .mov (or other format per list below) of the Pre-Roll video
that we will re-format to work with our systems.
Companion Ads and Pre-Roll Ads are served as one unit (tethered) at Internet Broadcasting.
For Firefox users, we are not able to serve Companion Ads and Pre-Roll Ads as one unit (tethered), because Firefox does not
support Active X.
Some Pre-Roll formats are not clickable. Videos are clickable when user has Windows Media Player Version 9 or higher, is using
Internet Explorer, and the user has Active X installed. Click-throughs in other browsers or lower versions of the windows player
generally do not work. Companion Ads and Flash Ads are clickable.
