Compatibility with VMAP timeOffset (percentages)

Hello guys,

I’m trying to deliver a mid-roll that would appear in the middle of the content video no matter the length of that video. The VMAP standard provides support for a percentage to be added as a value to the timeOffset attribute, but it doesn’t seem to work with this plugin.

Example of the XML: <vmap:AdBreak timeOffset="50%" breakType="linear" breakId="block_2"> <vmap:AdSource id="source_2" allowMultipleAds="false" followRedirects="true"> <vmap:VASTAdData> </vmap:VASTAdData> </vmap:AdSource> </vmap:AdBreak>

I tried to use “50%”, or “50”, nothing like that seems to work, in the console I see the following error:

AdsLoader error: AdError 900: Cannot parse the timeOffset value for the adslist response: 50.

Check page 16 in the standard (can’t search for it by ctrl+f):

Thanks a bunch

This is still the case - IMA does not yet support percentage time offsets for VMAP.

Wanted to check in on this as well and ping the devs. Docs still state Time offsets other than hh:mm:ss or "start" and "end" so i’m guessing it was never implemented.
