Underneath:

repeat: 'false',

Add

plugins: 'ltas',
'ltas.cc': 'YOUR CHANNEL CODE',

You get the channel code from your Dashboard.

This is because you need to wrap another div tag around your div, when using swfobject 2. Also make sure you set wmode to transparent.

@royal monde - Your page's CSS and our AdSolution's CSS are probably clashing. Can you show me the link to where you are running this?

Posted: Fri, 2010-09-24 07:28 Vasudev

Hi Ethan,

I use php 1.6.3. The above 2 lines of code did the trick and the ads are now displayed. But once i Close the Ad I'm not able to play the video.The player seems to freeze.

Thanks,

Disable autostart, since you are using prerolls anyways. This will fix it.

Posted: Sat, 2010-09-25 00:30 Vasudev

Thanks Ethan, it worked.

How can I use post-roll, midrolls and overlays as well?

Posted: Sat, 2010-09-25 21:57 Ethan LongTail

Np! Glad it worked! :)

To use the other ad units, you just have to activate them in your Dashboard account.

Posted: Sat, 2010-09-25 23:37 Vasudev

I'm a little confused. Can you tell me precisely what I need to do to activate another Ad Units?

Thank you

Go to - https://dashboard.longtailvideo.com/

Go to Setup - Click Edit.

You can check off the midroll and postroll spots here.

You don't need to modify anything else.

If you can't get it working, provide a link.

You need to change - controlbar: 'over'

To - controlbar: 'over',

Add add the AdSolution variables under there.

Posted: Wed, 2011-03-02 17:32 citymio.com

I made the changes and is still not working

here is the code:

{literal}

enablejs: 'true',
backcolor: '{/literal}{$smarty.const._BGCOLOR}{literal}',
frontcolor: '{/literal}{$smarty.const._TIMECOLOR}{literal}',
screencolor: '000000',
repeat: 'false',
autostart: '{/literal}{$smarty.const._AUTOPLAY}{literal}',
logo: '{/literal}{$smarty.const._WATERMARKURL}{literal}',
linktarget: '_blank',
link: '{/literal}{$smarty.const._WATERMARKLINK}{literal}',
image: '{/literal}{$video.preview_image}{literal}',
bufferlength: '5',
controlbar: 'over',
plugins: 'ltas',
'ltas.cc': 'prqjbxcllejrulb'
};

var params = {
wmode: 'transparent',
allowfullscreen: 'true',
allowscriptaccess: 'always',
allownetworking: 'all'
};

Posted: Wed, 2011-03-02 17:38 Ethan LongTail

The issue is that you have autostart turned on - http://www.citymio.com/index.php

Turn it off. It will fix it.

Posted: Fri, 2011-08-19 10:43 zdig1

i use php melody from 1.6.3 to 1.6.6
and i update the jpayer by just replacing *.swf
it work nice ( flv payer dot work any more it fix it on player.tpl )

but when i try to add the channel code !! not working

i try to fix it on tpl ( template file) as you said before but no chance
i thought that may be it msut be changed on other file like functin.php or ajax.php of php melody script

any way i think it will not be working because script use his own swfobject.js and dont use jwplayer.js

Posted: Fri, 2011-08-19 10:55 zdig1

this an example
http://zdig1.biz/video/musicvideo.php?vid=8fe1d2eeb

ajax.php

else if ($video['video_player'] == 'jwplayer')
				{
					$embed_code  = '<embed src="'. _URL .'/jwplayer.swf" ';
					$embed_code .= ' width="'. $config['player_w_favs'] .'" height="'. $config['player_h_favs'] . '"';
					$embed_code .= ' scale="noscale" bgcolor="'. _BGCOLOR .'"';
					$embed_code .= ' type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" ';
					$embed_code .= ' allowScriptAccess="always" wmode="transparent" ';
					$embed_code .= ' flashvars="';

function.php

$embed_code .= '<embed src="'. _URL .'/jwplayer.swf" ';
		$embed_code .= ' width="'. _PLAYER_W_EMBED .'" height="'. _PLAYER_H_EMBED . '"';
		$embed_code .= ' scale="noscale" bgcolor="'. _BGCOLOR .'"';
		$embed_code .= ' type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullScreen="true" ';
		$embed_code .= ' allowScriptAccess="always" wmode="window" ';
		$embed_code .= ' flashvars="'. $jw_flashvars .'">';
		$embed_code .= '</embed>';
		$embed_code .= '</object>';

and player.tpl is the one showen on othe post

{literal}
			<script type="text/javascript">					
				var flashvars = {
					{/literal}
					{if $video.source_id == 3}
						{literal}

					enablejs: 'true',
					backcolor: '{/literal}{$smarty.const._BGCOLOR}{literal}',
					frontcolor: '{/literal}{$smarty.const._TIMECOLOR}{literal}',

Change all references of:

controlbar: 'over'

To:

controlbar: 'over',
plugins: 'ltas',
'ltas.cc': 'your_id'

your_id you get from your dashboard account.

For running your own ads, in the Dashboard account, make sure to go to Run Your Own Ads > Target Ads, to set up the mappings correctly.

Hello Sir,

My name is Varun Abrol and I am the owner of www.sportyhub.com. I am using PHP Melody 1.6 video script for my site and as my site is related to video, therefore, I want to use the OVERLAY ADS for my videos. In that, I want to put the ads in front of my videos or in pause or in lower section of the player etc.

I am providing one example by which you all could understand:::
http://www.mycricketvideos.com/Highlights-Free/pakistan-vs-sri-lanka-asia-cup-highlights-3rd-odi-mat...
Also I have seen on your site::: http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/open-video-ads/13060/configuring-ova-to-deliver-overlay-ads

Please reply me with the code of Overlay Ad for the PHP Melody by which adsense ads, clicksor ads could be placed in front of the site videos. If you required any thing please feel free to tell me.

@Varun - You need to edit the TPL file for the player to add the "ltas" plugin to do. I am not sure which file specifically it is though, as PHP Melody is not our product. The two variables to add though are the ltas plugin and a variable called ltas.cc, which is your AdSolution channel code, which you get from your Dashboard account.
