This document explains how Admin users can configure and manage Ads in Streamit (Laravel Backend)<\/strong>. It covers both VAST Ads<\/strong> and Custom Ads<\/strong>, with step-by-step guidance<\/strong> and clear placement logic<\/strong>, ensuring easy understanding for non-technical users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overview<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Streamit provides two powerful advertising modules<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. VAST Ads Module<\/strong> \u2013 Automated, network-based video ads (programmatic).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Custom Ads Module<\/strong> \u2013 Manually managed, direct-sold or in-house ads.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    These modules are designed to maximize monetization<\/strong> while maintaining a smooth user viewing experience<\/strong> across Mobile App, Web, and TV App<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1\ufe0f\u20e3 VAST (Video Ad Serving Template) Module<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The VAST module<\/strong> allows integration with programmatic ad networks<\/strong> such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • SpotX<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • SpringServe<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      VAST works via an XML-based Ad Tag URL<\/strong>, which the video player reads to fetch ads and tracking events automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Ad Placement Logic & Timing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      \u25b6\ufe0f Pre-roll Ads (Entry Ads)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        • Displayed:<\/strong> During content playback<\/li>\n\n\n\n

          \u23f9 Post-roll Ads (Retention Ads)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          • Trigger Logic:<\/strong> When 10% of the video duration remains<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Displayed:<\/strong> Just before content ends<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Best Use:<\/strong> Retention & promotions<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Ideal For:<\/strong> Upcoming releases, next episode promos<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            \ud83d\udfe6 Overlay Ads (Non-Interruptive Ads)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
