Problem with airing level videos

A recently discovered issue is impacting airing level video playback. An airing level video should be available for the first 10 days after a creative airs. This is a helpful feature for creatives that use different 800 numbers across different networks or make any creative modifications which may be network or airing specific. When one clicks view links, during the initial 10 day window for any airing, such as in airing detail excel outputs or in the network log view, the video that plays should be of the actual airing and contain the correct 800 number, etc. Currently, the system is not playing the correct airing level video but rather a video sample of the creative which can be from any network.

For advertisers using different 800 numbers across networks, this situation may result in the wrong 800 number appearing in the video playback for airing level videos. This situation is due to a programming error on the part of our AdSphere development team and we are still working to determine when this issue started. Normally, user input would have exposed this type of issue, however, in this particular case, a member of our team happened to notice the issue. Our AdSphere development team is currently working to fix this issue and the plan is to push the fix to AdSphere on Friday of this week after they spend 2-3 days doing proper quality control checks. We sincerely apologize for this issue.

8/27/21 Update – The fix for airing level videos has been pushed to production. Please report any issues to support@drmetrix.com
