Flowplayer recently introduced an Adsense integration that promises high payout rates.

This looks very impressive. I would like to stick with the JW Player, but the AdSolution pays horribly. Please add something like this to the JW Player for those who don't have enough traffic to go directly to Google.
I do have premium ads, but the pay is still pathetic compared to other agencies.
What is your website? If they pay pathetic low then something must be wrong with the configuration.

It is configured properly. In fact, the plugin for flowplayer is not much better, except for the fact that it offers prerolls with the option for advertisers to target your site. I think it takes time to build up your CPM.
I've had better luck with Tremor/Scanscout. What I really need to do, is get OVA running with a proper mix of them all.
Indeed, it takes time to build the CPM because we need to connect your site to all premium advertisers we work with. So in essence, the longer you stay with us the better you will perform over time.

Hi,
is there any update with this? We are thinking of swap to flowplayer. AdSense for video is very promising.
Thank you!
This plugin now supports AdSense - http://www.longtailvideo.com/adnetworks/plugins/googima/
Darjan, what is the requirement to be approved for premium ads?
Thanks,
Aca
Aca,
You need to have produced your own content or have a license to legally distribute your content. In other words, no stolen and/or pirated videos. That's the biggest criteria. Also, it would help if your website is in English.

We are running the ads on our own Sports news channel, where we are actively buying the licenses for news footage and/or are showing our own produced interviews or footage.
The only problem therefore is that our website and the content itself is not in English, although more than 60% of viewers are from abroad, out of which some 30-35 percent are from US/Canada.
Thanks,
Aca
Aca,
Can you send us an email to support ]at[ longtailvideo dot com with a link to your site for inspection, as well as, approval?

Hi, Is it possible to have the user click on a link to download a file that requires them to first watch a video ad before download commences?
We are creating a growing amount of free original content and would like to generate revenue to help fund its creation. Is it essential that I have video content or can I have any content, just as long as the user views the video ad first?
Thanks.
You would need this plugin - http://www.longtailvideo.com/addons/plugins/80/Adtonomy-(Run-Your-Own-Video-Ads)
Hi Guys,
Just was accepted for the flowplayer adsense plugin beta.
Seriously thinking about changing. Have used adsoulution before and the ads served were spammy and embarrassing.
Now the Adsense plugin you are offering is $399 per year.
I dont think that a solution to serve adsense midroll ads is a big thing expect. And if the developer of that solution can take a rev share as with the Bigsool plugin, why would we have to pay big yearly fees.

Derek,
Thanks I'll bring your suggestion up during our next ad meeting.
May I ask what your website is btw? If you have good content (and traffic) we can approve your account for premium ads, which pay a lot more.
Best,
Darjan
