Speeding Up Reports

Our technical teams have been busy these past weeks optimizing the AdSphere platform under Amazon Web Services (AWS). Yesterday, enhancements were made to improve the time that it takes to create excel/cvs reports.

Airing Level Videos

As mentioned previously, airing level videos now include the complete ad break. Using the slider on the video playback timeline, one can scroll backwards or forward to view any part of the ad break in order to see all commercials that ran inside of the break including star and end of the ad break where network icons are typically displayed. Now everyone will have visual confirmation of the network and entire ad break for each commercial airing. The new enhanced airing level videos take between 5-7 hours to become available after air time. Going forward, the team hopes to reduce the delivery timeframe for airing level videos to within 3-4 hours. Infomercial airing level videos are available on SD networks but airing level videos on HD networks for long form are still a work in progress. That said, airing level thumbnail images are available for long form across all networks so one can still confirm that the correct infomercial ran, confirm 800 number, etc.

Daily and Weekly Reports

There have also been recent improvements made that should help to speed the delivery of daily and weekly reports each week.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We hope everyone has an amazing Thanksgiving this coming week!
