SAN JOSE, California, Sept. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- VisualOn, Inc., a multimedia software company that enables scalable cross-platform media playback for global streaming media brands, today announced the general availability of OnStream AdFlow, adding Ad-management and Ad-playback capability to the media framework product OnStream® MediaPlayer+ (OSMP+). VisualOn has been working with many premier global Over-The-Top (OTT) operators to reduce the complexity of Ad-playback on multi screen devices.

OnStream AdFlow allows for Ad and Ad Pod insertion for pre-roll, mid-roll, and post-roll, in addition to pre-roll and post-roll support for both Live and linear content. Moreover, it supports VMAP and VAST formats for Ad stitching and tracking, on top of providing pre-integrated support for most popular 3rd party Ad tracking systems, making it easy to tie into existing tracking infrastructure.
