Loading video from Amazon S3 bucket

@PeterRongsted wrote:

I am about to deliver a couple of banner ads to Adform. Coming from an Edge Animate background, I have previously been able to upload heavier files to an Amazon S3 bucket and load them from there.

However, I cannot figure out how to do this in Hype. If I use an HTML widget I get an additional html file in my hyperesources folder, which is not what I want. Ideally I would like to be able to load the S3 content directly from the Javascript-file ("default_hype_generated_script.js")

I have tried modifying the "default_hype_generated_script.js" to use an absolute path rather than referencing n:"FILENAME", but that doesn't seem to work.

Has anybody run into anything similar, and been able to work around it?

Clicktag issue in Doubleclick

@scullypdx wrote:

Following the lead of previous posts in this forum, I've tried to add a clicktag button and code in the head HTML rather than hard-coding. While it validates in the doubleclick validator here, they don't actually click through.

Any ideas to fix it? or do I need to go back to hard-coding my clicktag in the file's HTML?

Attaching document that shows the process I was following.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Advertising Banner Production: Start here

@Daniel wrote:

Even if you've created banner ads for years, it's important to know how to maneuver within Tumult Hype and take advantage of time-saving techniques:

Getting Started

This post & video demonstrates the basic workflow and makes recommendations for organization.

If your Hype document doesn't appear, double check that your browser is not blocking ads via plugins or extensions.

Inserting Click Tags

A click tag is typically a variable like %%CLICK_UNESCAPED%% that is replaced by an ad server when a viewer loads your ad. It's quick & easy to add these click tags in such a way that they can be replaced outside of Hype, and then used anywhere within your animation.

The code that adds the click tag needs to be added in the <head> area of your document. In Hype, you can access this area in the Scene inspector by clicking 'Edit Head HTML.' If your click tag consists of a variable like %%CLICK_URL_UNESC%% and is replaced with a URL, then you would add the following script to the head of your document:

<script>
function clickURLTriggered() {
  window.open('%%CLICK_URL_UNESC%%',
  '_blank' // <- This could be _self to open in the same window.
);
} 
</script>

Keep in mind that you may need to add your ad network's library before this function. What this does it creates a function which web browsers (and your ad network) runs first before anything else, and adds the function name clickURLTriggered() to the namespace. You can now run this function from anywhere within Hype. Simply run clickURLTriggered() (perhaps in response to a 'mouse click' action) and this can serve as your 'exit'.

Ad networks vary on this method, but this basic premise holds true: Establish them in the <head> and then you can access them as a function anywhere else within Hype.

One Hype document, Multiple Banner Sizes

You can build multiple banner sizes in a single Hype document, and take advantage of slice export to export multiple HTML files in one go. Crazy, right? Choose different scene sizes based on your ad sizes, and select File > Advanced Export. Read complete documentation on advanced export. Tip: Use scene sizes as your scene names.

Help Creating HTML5 Display Banners for Choozle.com

@ocramman wrote:

Hey everyone! I have been reading this forum for a while and it has helped educate me on how to use Hype to build all kinds of creative. Recently I have come across a little bit of a wall. I am trying to build out HTML5 Banners for a Ad Platform called Choozle. I built out the banners and exported them exactly to Choozle's specs, including putting their click tag and macro/handler in the header portion and for some reason they are telling me the coding in the file is preventing a call back so the file wont display and that there are some security issues that maybe coming from Hype. Has anyone had experience with this with other Ad platforms?

Their website is Choozle.com

DoubleClick banners

@CDBYTE wrote:

Really want to buy this app, but not convinced it will work with DoubleClick

Has anyone had any success with banner ads.
Have tried to check banner through DoubleClick validator (see errors)

error
Missing click tag check
No click tag was detected within this file. You must include at least one click tag in your HTML file in order to set a click-through URL for your creative. Reach out to the creative developer to resolve this issue by adding a click tag to the creative.

More details:
Source: CLICK_TAG_MISSING found in Default/Default.html

error
Zip file contents check
The creative contains a file type that isn’t supported by DCM. Supported file types are HTML, HTM, JS, CSS, JPG, JPEG, GIF, PNG, JSON, XML, and SVG. To resolve this issue, contact the creative developer and request that any other file types are removed or replaced.

More details:
Source: FILE_TYPE_INVALID found in Default/Default.hyperesources/37863A-restorable.plist

Should be able to fix click tag issue.
Appears that .hyperesources is the problem. Is there a way around this.
FILE_TYPE_INVALID found in Default/Default.hyperesources/37863A-restorable.plist

Please could a legend create some templates that will pass the https://h5validator.appspot.com test.

Preview your Hype banner ads to your client

@jorrit wrote:

I know the hassle when sending created banner ads to the customer. I started sending by email, then created a simple page with FTP.

Now I've created a new platform for easily doing this, called Adpiler. It lets you create preview pages in a minute, show your Hype (and other) banner ads in a real website, and customers can easily annotate feedback on the ad.

Hopefully this can be helpful for you as well. If you have any suggestions or feedback, please let me know.

Backup image from stage

@ZIGT wrote:

Hi there,

We're using Hype since yesterday. We specialize in online banner production and we were wondering whether there is a function to export an HTML file with a backup/poster image. Since most ad serving programs require a backup image, this would help us a lot! In case there isn't such a function, will this be implemented at some point in the future?

Thanks!

Working with Multiple Creatives | Fireplace / U-Shape

@Bendora wrote:

Hello fellow Hypers,

is there a way to set up pageLoad.handler inside of a hype.file to check if the sister.creatives are loaded before playing?

I have to creative a Fireplace and these are made up out of 3 banners. But if one starts before the other, the whole animation is out of sync.

Does anyone have a thought or idea on how to realize this in Hype?

Update ... 2

Adding a temp link to give a visual reference. Added a second page. Navigation is working.

Using Hype to build banners in DoubleClick - Security Issues

@c_t wrote:

I've managed to build a banner for DoubleClick using Hype. When previewing locally, everything is tracking as expected in the console window.

The runtime JS file for Hype is local and not externally hosted and I'm using the Hype API to communicate with different scenes and symbols in my document (which works as expected locally).

However, when I upload to the Studio I receive this error in the console window and the Ad fails to play.

"Uncaught DOMException: Blocked a frame with origin "https://s0.2mdn.net" from accessing a cross-origin frame."

When clicking on the error, it takes me to this bit of code in my Javascript file:

someVar = window.parent.myhypedocument.getElementById('symbol-id');

Has anyone seen these issues with AdServers before? If so, any recommendations on how to solve this is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Double Click Dynamic Creatives

@Carlosnewblue wrote:

Hey Guys, This is going to be a complicated one, I Would be really glad to get help not only from the community but from Hype devs, if they can, this is a bit of an issue. Also, If you guys want to point me to other forums that might also help me, I'd be very glad!

About a year ago I introduced hype to my company and ever since then it's our primary animation tool. I am extremely happy with the software and most of the animated banners that we work on come from Hype. With that said, Recently some areas of the company are pushing me into working more with Double Click's Dynamic ads. Here's some reading material if you guys are interested:

https://support.google.com/richmedia/answer/2691686?hl=en

https://support.google.com/richmedia/answer/6010157?hl=en

We've managed to make a group of Dynamic ads to work, but they are simple frame-by-frame animations that I made on Google Web Designer ( that has specific tools for creating dynamic ads). I hate Google Web Designer with a passion and I cannot make anything cool with that thing... The ideal thing here would be for me to animate everything on hype and then have specific objects be dynamic. I'm aware that I would have to be careful with the size of the objects and the images cause different images with different dimensions could appear stretched... But with all that said, how would I go about making the dynamic ads using hype?

I'm studying this from many different sources, so if I get any updates on this, I'll post them here for future reference. Image may be NSFW.

Banner Ad not working in Google Double Click

Sizmek Export Script Error - Loads the HYPE file twice

@dhayles wrote:

Hi, I have just been trying out the new Sizmek Export Script and have been getting an error in so much as the Export Script is loading my HYPE document twice.

Please see the attached file. I have included a JS alert(); on the first 'On Scene Load' which should only run once, however when I use the Sizmek preview it runs through twice.

I have identified the following JS code that has been added to the HTML head by the export script that is causing the problem:

(function () {

	var thisHypeDocument = null;

	function preInit() {
		if(EB.isInitialized()) {
			init();
		} else {
			EB.addEventListener(EBG.EventName.EB_INITIALIZED, init);
		}
	}

	function init() {
		show();
	}

	function show() {
		if(thisHypeDocument != null) {
			thisHypeDocument.showSceneNamed(thisHypeDocument.sceneNames()[0]);
		}
	}

	function hypeDocumentLoadCallback(hypeDocument, element, event) {
		thisHypeDocument = hypeDocument;
		if(!EB.isInitialized() ) {
			// don't load the Hype document until Sizmek EBLoader has loaded
			return false;
		} 
		return true;
	}

	if("HYPE_eventListeners" in window === false) {
		window.HYPE_eventListeners = Array();
	}
	window.HYPE_eventListeners.push({"type":"HypeDocumentLoad", "callback":hypeDocumentLoadCallback});

	window.addEventListener('load', preInit);

})();

It looks like it is running EB.isInitialized() is running twice, once before the HYPE file has loaded and then again afterwards causing my custom Script in HYPE to run twice.

When I usually create Sizmek ads, I write the following script manually inside of HYPE in 'On Scene Load':

function onEBReady(){			
	if (typeof(EB) == 'undefined') {
		setTimeout(onEBReady, 10);
	} else {
		if (!EB.isInitialized()) {
			EB.addEventListener(EBG.EventName.EB_INITIALIZED,initSizmek);
		}
		else {
			initSizmek()
		}
	}
}
function initSizmek(){
         // Do Something
}
onEBReady();

So I guess the Export Script Doesn't need the function preInit() { ... } part ??

If I remove the following it works:

function preInit() {
		if(EB.isInitialized()) {
			init();
		} else {
			EB.addEventListener(EBG.EventName.EB_INITIALIZED, init);
		}
	}

	function init() {
		show();
	}

	function show() {
		if(thisHypeDocument != null) {
			thisHypeDocument.showSceneNamed(thisHypeDocument.sceneNames()[0]);
		}
	}

My Question then, is can this be removed from the export script or is this needed in some way that I cannot see?

Thanks
Darren

Youtube Masthead

Google is pretty strict about how they want you to either use Google Web Designer or Vanilla HTML5.

I've been working on a few techniques to get hype's code to work inside GWD but I've been hitting some walls.

Anyone else tried this before? Anyone succeeded?

Setting up Hype templates for Google DoubleClick

@Jaywing wrote:

Hi,

Can anyone help please?

I have looked through the forums and tried lots of outdated threads and old information, but I am still having problems exporting Hype documents for DoubleClick Studio.

I keep on getting an error message "You have uploaded the wrong number of assets with Enabler components for this creative. The creative must have exactly 1 asset(s) with Enabler." when I upload my index.html file to the Studio interface.

I have installed the Export script 'DoubleClickStudio-3.pkg' and selected a button element and allocated an action of 'Exit' on mouseclick, then exported the display advert. Uploading it to the studio gets the same error everytime.

Are there any up to date instructions / clear examples of setting this up in Hype documents please?
