Hi.

I have longtail player on my site and I am currently using the ltas plugin.
Im also using the viral plugin so that users can use the < embed > code to embed the vids on their websites.

But, I found out, that if they use the < embed > , the longtail ads do not work anymore.

Is there a way to get around this ?

thanks

Lucky,

You need to include the <object> tag around the <embed> for maximum browser compatibility.

Youtube does the same thing when you embed their videos (example below).

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ufIISUVDkj0&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ufIISUVDkj0&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

I didnt get this.

Can you provide an example, with the ltas plugin, using the < embed > and < object > ?

thanks

There are examples in the Dashboard under Setup > Implement Code.

Make sure that you select object/embed code to get the proper instructions.

I know that.. but for the ads to show,

<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.ltassrv.com/serve/api5.4.asp?d=43996&s=20147&c=15623&v=1"></script>

must be in the code.

which is not included in the < embed > code

Lucky,

The API script tag should be placed at the bottom of your page.

See this example: https://dashboard.longtailvideo.com/tutorial/JW4.0/jw4.0-embed-step-3.gif

Darjan, I think he is asking if its possible to display the ads when the javascript is not on the page, IE embed on another page where you don't have control to put the javascript.

I would like to know if this is possible as well

Randy,

In about a weeks time we will release an update to our AdSolution which will not require the JS tag present on your page in order to serve ads.

Darjan,

I did exactly as you said above in blogger blog. pasted the script code before the </body> tag and chose "objec/embed" option for the video. video plays but no post-roll ads. help please

You can not paste Javascript on a blogger website, which is why it is not working because our AdSolution requires the API Script tag at the bottom of the page.
