For VOD content, the PSDK inserts ad breaks by splicing
into the main content so that the timeline duration increases.
Before playback, the PSDK resolves known ads, inserts
ad breaks into the main content as described by a timeline returned
from Ad Decisioning, and recomputes the virtual timeline if needed.
In VOD, the PSDK inserts ads as follows:
- Pre-roll: The PSDK
inserts an ad break at the beginning of the content.
- Mid-roll: The PSDK
inserts one or more ad breaks in the middle of the content.
- Post-roll: The PSDK
appends an ad break to the end of the content.
After playback starts, no further changes can occur in the content.
For example:
- No additional ad
insertion occurs.
- Ad deletion is not
supported, so you cannot delete built-in ads from the content to
offer an ad-free experience.
- Ad
replacement is not supported, so you cannot replace built-in ads with
targeted ads.
