Live and Linear Ad Resolving and Insertion

The PSDK supports the following live and linear use cases:

• Pre-roll ad insertion

  PSDK inserts one or more ads at the beginning of the content.

• Mid-roll ad insertion

  PSDK inserts one or more ads in the middle of the content.

The PSDK resolves the ads and inserts them when a cue point is encountered in the live or linear stream. By default, the PSDK supports the following cues as valid ad markers when resolving and placing ads:

• #EXT-X-CUEPOINT
• #EXT-X-AD
• #EXT-X-CUE
• #EXT-X-CUE-OUT

These markers require the metadata field's DURATION in seconds and the cue’s unique ID. For example:

#EXT-X-CUE DURATION=27 ID=identiferForThisCue ...
