In Banner Video

With In Banner, your video is placed in banners on our premium websites.

This format gives you the opportunity to capture the attention of potential customers with dynamic images and sound. To maximize the impact of your message reach, we recommend subtitling the videos so that even without activated audio, your message is clear and engaging.

 If the goal is to create high engagement, you should choose full-screen Mobile and/or brandboard. If the goal is high reach , you should choose netboard and board XL.

In-banner: Video file specifications

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

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

  • In-banner video Netboard and Board (can only be delivered as 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 fit with technical formatting required at the ad server
has too loud 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

  • In-banner video Board XL

A tag is a banner encoded in a third-party tag (script), which can, among other things, deliver video content. Third-party script tags are hosted by our ad server, while the video content is hosted by the third party and is 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 are banners coded in HTML5, which among other things can deliver video content. The HTML5 code is hosted by our ad server, while the video content is hosted by a third party and is 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.
