I would like open-video-ads http://code.google.com/p/open-video-ads/ to be integrated into a custom flashplayer. Perhaps you could create a more user friendly approach to this, like an API, sprite so I could post ads from Google Adsense/OpenX into any SWF I like.
We currently have an application for a website made in Flash CS3. We would want to add commercial ads using OpenX server.
We need a simple enough component to show some ads. First video adds, then after that, the tv stream will start and just text ads will come up (like on youtube). For that we need the component to dispatch an event and tell the parent movie, that the video ads are over and it can start the tv stream.
For ease of implementation we would like this component to be a movieClip symbol which can be droped on stage over our video.
Features:
– the movieClip should be completely transparent when not playing a video (or showing an ad)
– it should be resizable
– it should dispatch en event when initial videos completely play
– if any loaderInfo.parameters need to be loaded, they should be loaded from MovieClip(root).paramList (var paramList:Object=this.root.loaderInfo.parameters;)
– When the tv Stream stops, we would like a method we could call (i.e. component.playVideos() ) to tell the component to play video ads again
I have attached here the FLA of the player we’re using. As you can see, it’s extremely basic, it just streams from a FMS.
