Windows Media Player INTEGRATION

Windows Media Player INTEGRATION Introduction This document describes steps for integrating Microsoft Window Media Players with Nielsen’s Combined Beacon library described in the “Combined Beacon JS API Integration” document. For Windows Media Player, we will use the “Native JavaScript mode” approach as described in that document. ggwmpxxx.js (where xxx is the version number) is our Event Handler library for Windows Media Player – simply including that typically automates data capture for core events like LoadVideo, Play and Pause. Prerequisites and Assumptions Knowledge of JavaScript and Windows Media Player. The document “Combined Beacon JS API Integration” is prerequisite reading. Implementation The following steps are required: 1. Include the Windows Media Player Event handler library like this: <script type="text/javascript" src=" http://secure-XX.imrworldwide.com/novms/js/2/ggwmpXXX.js"> </script> Note 1: “XX” is the Nielsen supplied country code for your region. For example, it is “us” for customers in USA. Note 2: “XXX” is the version number of the JS specific WMP handler. 2. Initialize clientid and other parameters like this (these values will be supplied to you by Nielsen): <script type="text/javascript"> var _nolggGlobalParams = { clientid: “ my Nielsen assigned client id ”, vcid: “ my Nielsen assigned vc id ”, cisuffix: ““, sfcode: "Nielsen assigned data node “, prod: " Nielsen assigned product code " }; </script> 3. Include and initialize Combined Beacon Javascript library for Native mode: <script type="text/javascript" src=" http://secure-XX.imrworldwide.com/novms/js/2/ggcmbXXX.js"> Copyright © 2009 The Nielsen Company. All rights reserved. V3.02.02 </script> Note 1: “XX” is the Nielsen supplied country code for your region. For example, it is “us” for customers in USA. Note 2: “XXX” is the latest version number of the general JS beacon. 4. Complete the initialization by including the following lines: <script> var canUseSWF = false; // forces native mode var uid = 0; var gg1 = new gg(); gg1.ggInitialize(_nolggGlobalParams,uid,canUseSWF); </script> Example In this section you will find a full example of the implementation section detailed previously, plus how to pass video meta-data to the API.
