I want to ask how can I put video before my main video in my own website? Like commercial video or somethings like that. For example, the commercial video should be played first and then the main video play. Exactly like youtube! Thanks for helping me

There are several ways you can do this:

  • Integrate the ad into your stream on the server side - this requires no changes on your website, unless you want to monitor and report the ad playback or disable controls during the ad. It does require expertise on the video streaming server side so may not be applicable.

  • Load the ad using its video URL into your video player or video tag on your website and play that first. When it completes load the main video into the same player using the main video URL and then play your main video.

  • A refined version of the second approach above - to avoid delays between the ad and the main video you can use two players and hide the one you are hot playing - i.e. have two video players or video tags, load both but pause the main video and hide that element on your webpage until the ad video is finished, then hide the ad video and unhide and un pause the main video.

Take a look here for more on the last approach above: https://stackoverflow.com/a/67923860/334402
