Custom position not working for overlay

Hi there,
I'm still working on OVA implementation inside an AS3 project.

I'm encounter a problem regarding the overlay position.

Here configuration :

"overlays": {
"regions": [
{
"id": "overlay-custom",
"verticalAlign": "top"
}
]
},
"ads":
{
"servers":
[
{
"type": "OpenX",
"apiAddress": "http://domain.tld/
}
],
"schedule":
[
{
"position": "pre-roll",
"server":
{
"type": "direct",
"apiAddress": "http://domain.tld/"
}
},
{
"position": "overlay-custom",
"server":
{
"type": "direct",
"apiAddress": "http://domain.tld/"
}
}
]
}

The problem is that overlay is still display in the bottom of the displayProperty that I define with : enableNonLinearAdDisplay.
If I'm using a standard region like "reserved-bottom-center-w450px-h50px-000000-o50" It work fine.

I have also try to use these example : http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/open-video-ads/ova-for-jw-player-5/13779/illustrating-overlay-a...

I'm looking to display an overlay on the top and left of the SWF, without any margin / padding and that fullfil the width SWF. Is that possible ?

Regards,

Thomas.

Hi Thomas, it's certainly possible :) but for some reason, it's not working with your custom implementation.

Is there any chance that you could send me the debug output when OVA runs, or better still, a URL that I can see it running.

Helps me see precisely what's going on.

If you want, email either the debug output or a URL to enquiries@openvideoads.org and I'll help directly.

When running, can you make sure that the debug levels are set to:

"levels": "fatal, config, vast_template, display_events, region_formation"

That will provide a lot more debug info on what's happening with the overlays at runtime...

The solution is :
Call _vastController.enableNonLinearAdDisplay function when OVAConfigLoaded and before _vastController.load.

PS : ClickThroughCallToActionView Class contains a caurina.transitions.Tweener.

Thanks Paul for your help !
