New features for 1.3

The opportunity resolver workflow (PlacementOpportunityDetector) is a component of the PSDK used to detect custom tags in the stream and create placement opportunities. These placement opportunities are then sent to the content resolver (ContentResolver) to customize the content/ad insertion workflow based on the placement opportunity properties and metadata.

The PSDK includes a default opportunity resolver that understands default ad cues, and a default ad resolver that provides ads to be inserted based on the ad metadata provided in the player item. You can replace these default resolvers to customize the workflow of custom tag detection and ad/content insertion to implement different scenarios such as recognizing custom tags for ad insertion, implementing a custom ad provider, or providing blackouts. See Customize opportunity and content resolvers.

You can now customize your viewers' advertising experience. Set custom ad policies for unique viewer situations (play, seek, fast forward, rewind, resume) and business rules. See Playback behavior and optional customizations.

Turn-key integration with the Adobe Analytics and Primetime player monitoring through the Video heartbeat library. Simply provide your SiteCatalyst tracking server, report suite ID, and configuration parameters to have a fully functional video implementation. Analytics about video viewing sessions can be viewed in real-time inside Primetime player monitoring and is fully integrated into your Adobe Analytics report suite.
