This page is work in progress. Any critical changes to the page will be communicated directly by Kantar Gallup DK. |
For more information on the current project status and schedule, please contact Kantar Gallup Denmark, Copenhagen.
The Danish project team is led by Kantar Gallup in Copenhagen. Our technology specialists from Kantar Media Spring, Germany, will assist with your technical queries as you begin and progress each player/platform implementation.
Before you start your implementation we will discuss with you and your teams which of our libraries you should use and be available to answer queries arising from your review of our documentation and testing framework.
We will be directly involved in the sign-off process for your implementation, undertaking a review of the data we receive from your implementation once on a staging environment.

spring is a technology-oriented company located in Saarlouis, Germany. It was founded as a spin-off of the renowned German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), Saarbrücken. Realizing as early as 1995 that the ever-growing global importance of web-based information dissemination and product marketing would require more and more sophisticated solutions for measuring online audiences, Partnering with JICs, spring’s technology for collecting and measuring usage data is now well-tried and tested and has helped to define the standard for audience reach measurement of advertising media in Norway, Finland, Baltic States, Germany, Switzerland, Romania and many other countries as well as to a number of broadcasters, publishers and telecommunication companies. In 2011, spring became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kantar Media, a global industry leader in audience measurement for TV, radio and the web. Today, spring is one of the leading pan-European companies in site-centric and user-centric Internet measurement, online research and analysis. |

Desktop Player Streaming Measurement Implementations
For desktop player implementations, you will need to observe the log stream data and verify the content of the heartbeats.
You do this by running a simple analysis of the http-requests sent from and to a browser whilst your webplayer is operating.
There are NO warnings or error messages produced using this method, it is a simple tracking of the HTTP-requests sent to the Kantar Media Spring measurement systems.
You can observe an example of a correct webplayer implementation using an HTTP-analyser such as the "developer tools" in Chrome/Internet Explorer or "HttpFox" plugin in Firefox.

This section briefly explains what the heartbeats sent from the libraries should look like. A concrete example of a viewing session is used.
Please use the record layout descriptions below for reference.
Variable | Description |
---|---|
counting domain | "tns-cs.net" = Norwegian counting domain e.g. “sitename” = “example" see here |
pl | player = own player name (set by the broadcaster) |
plv | player version = own player version (set by the broadcaster) |
sx | width of the stream window |
sy | height of the stream window |
stream | stream name (set by the broadcaster) |
cq | content-ID = broadcaster's content ID |
uid | unique Id of the view sequence |
pst | play state = list of viewing intervals on the stream |
dur | stream length in seconds (set by the broadcaster) |
vt | view time in seconds (time of visual contact with the stream) |
The actual record output should look similar to below:
First play state: 0+0+mbeswh
http://example.tns-cs.net/j0=,,,pl=jwplayer+plv=version1+sx=640+sy=517;+,stream=od+cq=123456789+uid=3f3tv5p+pst=,,0+0+mbeswh;+,1+1+mbeswj;;+dur=1501+vt=2;;; |
The output records should look similar to the records below, note the time of the “heartbeat” records = play states records at 21, 41, 61,.... seconds
http://example.tns-cs.net/j0=,,,pl=jwplayer+plv=version1+sx=640+sy=517;+,stream=od+cq=123456789+uid=3f3tv5p+pst=,,0+0+mbeswh;+,1+21+mbeswj;;+dur=1501+vt=22;;; http://example.tns-cs.net/j0=,,,pl=jwplayer+plv=version1+sx=640+sy=517;+,stream=od+cq=123456789+uid=3f3tv5p+pst=,,0+0+mbeswh;+,1+41+mbeswj;;+dur=1501+vt=42;;; http://example.tns-cs.net/j0=,,,pl=jwplayer+plv=version1+sx=640+sy=517;+,stream=od+cq=123456789+uid=3f3tv5p+pst=,,0+0+mbeswh;+,1+61+mbeswj;;+dur=1501+vt=62;;; http://example.tns-cs.net/j0=,,,pl=jwplayer+plv=version1+sx=640+sy=517;+,stream=od+cq=123456789+uid=3f3tv5p+pst=,,0+0+mbeswh;+,1+83+mbeswj;;+dur=1501+vt=84;;; http://example.tns-cs.net/j0=,,,pl=jwplayer+plv=version1+sx=640+sy=517;+,stream=od+cq=123456789+uid=3f3tv5p+pst=,,0+0+mbeswh;+,1+105+mbeswj;;+dur=1501+vt=106;;; |
Last play state: 1+120+mbeswj = 120 sec playtime.
http://example.tns-cs.net/j0=,,,pl=jwplayer+plv=version1+sx=640+sy=517;+,stream=od+uid=3f3tv5p+pst=,,0+0+mbeswh;+,1+120+mbeswj;;+dur=1501+vt=124;;; |
There may be 1 or 2 seconds added to every heartbeat due to internal workings of the library. |
