What to notice

  • podid ties multiple impressions to one commercial break; slotinpod positions each slot.
  • rqddurs enumerates exact acceptable durations, replacing minduration/maxduration when present.
  • devicetype 3 plus an app object is the classic CTV shape; buyers key CTV classification off both.
