Video files are advertisement videos that are delivered to AdOps (traffic@schibsted.no) as a regular video file.

These types of products can be delivered as a video file:

• In-banner video Netboard and Board (can be delivered as both video file and Tag / HTML)
• NorgeNÅ products can only be delivered with javascript Tag
• Native Ads Video

Live campaigns:

We've simplified the direct-purchase specification so you, as an advertiser, don't have to worry about technical video specifications. We only require the correct ratio and maximum duration for the video file.

Video files must be

• maximum 60 seconds duration (we recommend a maximum of 15 seconds)
• 16: 9 ratio

For Direct campaigns, as a rule, no other requirements for file type or file specifications apply.

Received video file will be converted by Schibsted Ad Operations if it
does not match the technical formatting required by the ad server
has too loud a sound.

We always contact the advertiser if the video file can not be converted without experienced image or audio quality change.

Received video file will be sent in return if

• The movie is too long
• The video has a different ratio than 16: 9
• It can not be converted with acceptable quality or size for upload to the ad server. Specification for programmatic purchases shows the technical quality required.
• Ads should not loop

Received video file will be converted by Schibsted Ad Operations if it
does not match the technical formatting required by the ad server
has too loud a sound.

Programmatic campaigns:

Tag is a banner encoded in a third-party tag (script), which can, among other things, deliver video content. The third-party script tag is hosted by our ad server, while the video content is hosted by a third party and retrieved by the tag when the ad is displayed. This is technically banner material, and Schibsted will not be able to deliver video metrics on campaigns with such material.

HTML5 is a banner encoded in HTML5, which can, among other things, deliver video content. The HTML5 code is hosted by our adserver, while the video content is hosted by third parties and retrieved by the HTML5 code when the ad is displayed. This is technically banner material, and Schibsted will not be able to deliver video metrics on campaigns with such material.

* For In Banner Video Horseshoes and Wallpaper, only the Skyscraper format is allowed for video / animations. For the sake of the user experience on our sites, video / animations are allowed in a maximum of half of the Skyscraper format. This applies regardless of whether Skyscraper is purchased alone, or as part of Horseshoe or Wallpaper.

• HTML5: We rely on the INMA HTML standard, click here for specification. NB! We do not allow "console.log(" statements to be embedded in the code, as this can slow down our pages and break debugging processes on the sites. "console.log(" must therefore be removed from the code before submitting the material.

Schibsted Ad Operations (AdOps) tests ads in newer versions of the browsers and does not check the ad's backward compatibility with the various browsers. The responsibility for making ads work across browsers lies with those who develop the ads. It is extremely important that the ads work as they should and the advertiser is responsible for the material. Schibsted reserves the right to immediately and without further notice remove ads that do not work satisfactorily. These can be ads that use an unreasonable amount of the computer's processor CPU (Central Processing Unit), are not in accordance with the Marketing Act, contain errors or are not approved by those responsible for the companies.

Ads that can be confused with Schibsted's editorial content:
All ads must be clearly delimited so as not to be confused with editorial content. Our readers should never be in doubt about what is editorial content and what are ads on our services.
Ads that in expression (color, font and design) mimic Schibsted's editorial expression or imitate Schibsted's own native and content products will not be approved.

To ensure that ads are not confused with editorial content, the following design requirements are set:
Ads shall have a background color corresponding to at least 10% color density or a black frame of at least 1 pix.
2. The text must have a margin out to the frame / outer edge of a minimum of 10 pixels.
The font in the ad may not be the same or mimic the one used in editorial content. For VG, the ad text should be written with Grotesque fonts, not Serifs. For FINN the font Arial, Helvetica, or Sans-serif should not be used.
4. Any link texts shall not be red, and the wording shall strive to differ from the wording in the media house's editorial link texts. The wording “Read the case” is accepted e.g. not, as this wording is often used in editorial matters.

Schibsted uses Xandr as an ad management system and it is Schibsted's measurements of ad impressions that are applicable and not other parties' tracking system. It is only possible to use Schibsted data in connection with advertising on Schibsted's services. It is not possible to use Schibsted- data to target or retarget Schibsted's users on other applications or services.
