Inserting preroll ads

 I was studying the "PlayContentWithAds" method and I discovered this

adIface = Roku_Ads()

print "Roku_Ads library version: " + adIface.getLibVersion()

 
http://video.ted.com/talks/podcast/DavidKelley_2002_480.mp4



'adIface.setAdUrl()



Will Preroll works like this?
adIface = Roku_Ads()

print "Roku_Ads library version: " + adIface.getLibVersion()

 

'adIface.setAdUrl()



Or this?

adIface = Roku_Ads()

print "Roku_Ads library version: " + adIface.getLibVersion()


' lengthy (20+ min.) TED talk to allow time for testing multiple ad pods

videoContent = { streamFormat : "mp4" }

videoContent.stream = { url: "http://video.ted.com/talks/podcast/DavidKelley_2002_480.mp4",

bitrate: 800,

quality: false

}



'adIface.setAdUrl()

adPods = adIface.getAds()

playContent = adIface.showAds(adPods) ' show preroll ad pod (if any)
