HI,

Unfortunately, it appears that most VPAID ads are not exposing full control to the JW Player wrapper.

This means that they can't be paused/muted using the JavaScript API.

It looks as though you are trying to do something like this - which works using a regular VAST ad:

But using the spotXchange Ad you get different results:

FYI: both examples were built with Tatami (in minutes!)

As James said, our player does not have control after a VPAID ad is loaded. It is up to the ad creator if the ad can be paused or not.

You must indicate a valid fie: ’’ URL in your JW Player setup. If you want to only show ads, my suggestion would be to use a half second blank MP4 as your video.
