Video not found: null when FLV selected as video type in OpenX #105

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Setting up a FLV video banner in OpenX and slecting FLV as video type.
2.Calling the OpenX ad server from JW Player

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When FLV is selected as video type in OpenX neither the pre roll or the
clip is played. JW Player says "Video not found: null" (see the file
null.png) When slecting MP4 as video type in OpenX (although the file is an
FLV) everything works. 

The only difference in the XML that OpenX outputs I can find is:

<MediaFile delivery="progressive" bitrate="400" width="640" height="480"
type="video/x-mp4">
−
<URL>
http://videoads.openx.org.edgesuite.net/openxvideos/openx-ad.flv
</URL>
</MediaFile>

When FLV is selected and it does not work. VS the xml below when MP4 is
selected and it works even though it is an FLV.

<MediaFile delivery="progressive" bitrate="400" width="640" height="480"
type="video/x-mp4">

</URL>
</MediaFile>

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
The latest version with 1.1 of the video plugin and OpenX v2.8.2-rc22
running on Apache 1.3.41, PHP 5.2.11 and MySQL 5.0.24-standard.

Please provide any additional information below.

It is strange because the only change I make is selecting mp4 in the
dropdown in OpenX. It worries me that this breaks the chain and the clip is
not played.

Closing.. the issue is the mime type specified in the OpenX response:

<MediaFile delivery="progressive" bitrate="400" width="640" height="480"
type="video/x-mp4">

Not it should be video/x-flv - the type must not have been set on the OpenX 
side correctly. Not an OVA issue.
