Can anyone help me with the steps, guides and process to be followed for tracking video events using DTM?

Thanks for your help in advance

Venkatesh

Hey Venkatesh,

I'm assuming you're talking about video milestones at 25% intervals - I was able to use the DTM based direct call rules to set the appropriate video eVars and events for each 25% milestone (one for each), however you will still need to integrate with your video player to trigger the appropriate milestone rule as the video time passes each 25% milestone.

I've attached a screenshot of the direct call rule for the first 25% milestone as a reference. Perhaps one of the Adobe guys can confirm whether this is the best approach, however it worked for me :)

For creating and setting the actual video variables and events themselves, the online documentation is pretty good - see http://microsite.omniture.com/t2/help/en_US/sc/appmeasurement/video/, http://microsite.omniture.com/t2/help/en_US/sc/appmeasurement/video/video_analyst.html and http://microsite.omniture.com/t2/help/en_US/sc/appmeasurement/video/video_developer.html. 

Good luck!

Cheers, Jez
