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.
Outstream is a high impact video format that appears in-line within the page content. You can choose to either upload your own MP4 file, or else use a VAST tag as the source of the video. An optional overlay can be used to add static brand elements on top of the video.

Format description and guidance
Outstream video is a high impact auto-playing video format that appears midway down the page (mid-content). The format accepts either an MP4 video, or a VAST tag as a source. An optional overlay can be used to add static brand elements on top of the video. 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!
Click URL
Click tracking is included in the template. If the VAST tag contains a clickthrough URL, it will automatically be used.
