Creating an InStream unit
To create an InStream unit, go to the InStream Video Units tab, click Add video unit, and follow these steps:
-
In the General tab, fill in the fields:
-
Resource: Select the desired resource from the drop-down list.
-
Unit position: Select a video unit display scenario:
- Pre-roll: Before the main content (maximum one unit).
- Post-roll: After the main content (maximum one unit).
- Mid-roll: At a specific time during the main content (maximum seven units).
- Pause-roll: When the Pause button is pressed (no more than one unit).
- Post-pause-roll: After the video is unpaused (if the pause duration was 60 seconds or more).
- In-roll: When a certain point in the video is reached (only in the Yandex video player).
-
Maximum length of unit: Specify the maximum duration of one unit. The total duration of all videos in it may be less than the specified duration.
-
Maximum number of videos: Specify the maximum number of videos per unit. We recommend setting this parameter to no more than three videos.
Note
If you specified a maximum of two videos for a unit with a 60-second duration, no more than two videos are displayed, even if there's still time left.
-
Short videos (6 seconds): If this option is enabled, an additional 6-second video is played before or after the main ad unit. It doesn't count toward the maximum unit length or the maximum number of videos.
-
-
Go to the Strategy tab and select a suitable traffic management strategy.
-
Click Save.
To display the unit, you need to integrate video ads into your resource.
