Advertisers will be immediately charged after the slide transition finishes and the slide starts playing. If the slide stops playing halfway or an event occurs to skip the slide (For example: synchronization decides to jump to another slide) the charge won't be reverted.

Proof of Play

If you enable the Media asset in Proof of play field you can get various reports about this asset.

Synchronize loop

The Synchronize Loop function allows you to display a loop synchronously on multiple screens.
Loop sync works similarly to Content synchronization.

Mute loop

Turning on this option will set every video's volume to 0.

Start loop paused

Setting this option will have your loop stopped on the first available slide paused. From this state your loop will only start if it gets a resume event. Read more about pausing loop down below in this article.

Note:

You can not set multiple-screen synchronization and start your loop paused at the same time.

Use Hardware Accelerated Player

Use Hardware Accelerated Player on the loop for video playback.
