FEP, DAI and SSAI? A Connected TV Glossary to Keep You Wired In
Posted in: Uncategorized
TV advertising is changing along with technology, which is giving everyone plenty of new terms with which to enlighten or obfuscate. Forget TV sets, for one thing. There are connected TVs, digital video players, smart TV apps, streaming devices and wired gaming consoles. Figuring out how to connect with TV viewers through all these prisms can confuse even the most seasoned media buyer.
“There are 600 classes of devices,” said Eric Hoffert, senior VP of video tech at ad tech provider AppNexus. “The inventory is on the big screen in the living room, delivered digitally over IP. Publishers can activate their connected TV inventory on Roku, Android, Xbox, Apple TV.”
