STREAMING VIDEO UPDATE - A streaming video version of this template is now available within the platform. This allows you to upload a high quality video file (max 50mb), and the video will automatically be compressed and optimised for use in the creative. Other than video file size, the rest of the details in these specs should still be adhered to.

Format description and guidance
To create a Midscroll Desktop Video (full screen), create a new Midscroll Desktop and then select “Video” as the Banner type. Set your landing page as the Click URL, and upload your Video.To ensure correct scaling of videos with this format, set Video Sizing to “Letterbox”, and set Video Alignment to “Center”.
Additional options allow for audio to be enabled (via a mute/unmute button), a background to be configured (for when the video doesn’t completely fill the screen), and it is strongly recommended to include a static endframe to safeguard against suspended auto-play. Read more about endframes here and ensure your ad never appears blank!
