A user interface for generating an ad creative for displaying a video advertisement on a mobile includes a control section and a preview section. The operator enters control parameters in the control section and previews the look-and-feel of a video advertisement as it will be played back on a target mobile platform, based on the control parameters. Control parameters include one or more of URLs for video, a web site visited after completion of the video and a web site visited when a user requests additional information.

Mobile creative management system

Techniques for monitoring an online video advertisement system include receiving a request for insertion of an online video advertisement, determining, selectively based on presence of a debug suffix, whether the request includes a debug request, performing a bidding auction to select a winning bid, and sending debug information, in response to the request, upon determination that the request includes the debug request. The debug data includes bid data received during the bidding auction. In one advantageous aspect, the use of hypertext transfer protocol headers to communicate debug information allows for activation and deactivation of the debugging operation transparently, e.g., without changing the underlying application layer workflow.

Real time debugging in online video advertisement system

The disclosure provides technology for managing the placement of advertisements. An ad insertion platform contains one or more lists that allow the ad insertion platform to filter advertisement placements and manage placing advertisement opportunities to the appropriate buyers. The disclosure also provides a database and monitoring software to allow faster querying and management of data for the real time bidding system.

Controlling effectiveness of online video advertisement campaign

Techniques are provided for playback and event reporting of video advertisements on a user device. Two different event reporting protocols are simultaneously supported to enable application-based playback of video advertisements while collecting event information associated with the video playback. In some configurations, initialization of the event reporting protocols is serialized to avoid conflict conditions during the video playback.
