Advertising and main video content must meet certain requirements
when you incorporate ads into your video content.
- The HLS version of the
advertising content must be no later than the HLS version of the main content.
- Ad
playlists should have the same bit-rate renditions as that of the main content
playlist.
- Target duration and any
individual fragment duration of the ad must not exceed the target duration of
the main content.
- Whether
the main content is multiplexed or not, any ads must be multiplexed and must
also contain an audio-only rendition.
- Advertising
content must have an audio-only stream if the main content also contains an
audio-only stream.
- Advertising
content must not be encrypted if the main content has subtitles streams.
- Advertising
content must be multiple bit rate (MBR) if the main content is MBR.
- If the main
content has alternate audio tracks, each ad must have at least an audio-only
stream, or the ad is skipped.
