Enable Ad skipping in JSON config for playlist implementations


I've been able to enable Ad skipping via JSON configs (advertising.skipoffset) for single video implementations. It seems like this does NOT work for playlist (multi videos). Any ideas?

George, thanks for the quick reply. After inspecting your example I realized I failed to mention we are using DFP targeting for the ad serving. It is not preconfigured in the JSON like yours. Is there a way to set up the JSON w/o the actual tag?

something like:
advertising: {
skipoffset:"10",
client:"vast",
schedule:{
adbreak1: {
offset:"
}
}

You cannot configure ad skips for Google IMA.

Please send us a test page replicating the issue as described in the document below:

From what I’m understanding you’re not using the player configurations to get and play the ads, but a test page will make more sense. Please make sure the test page only contains our player and no additional code or CSS.
