A spot can be creatively perfect and still not be delivered, because one technical detail is off. A slightly deviating loudness value is enough. This is exactly where the new function in the Ad Manager comes in: after upload, onescreen checks your creative automatically against the streaming services' requirements and adjusts it on request, so your spot can go on air without detours.
Automatic check right after upload
As soon as you have uploaded your spot in the Ad Manager, the check runs automatically. The creative is checked against the technical specifications of the streaming services your campaign is set to run on. So you don't have to work through various spec lists yourself or guess whether your spot is accepted everywhere. The platform handles that for you, in the background and in seconds.
