Hmm, that's very strange then that it doesn't work for me. To try it once again, I just downloaded the Flash IMA SDK sample 1.3 from here:
https://github.com/googleads/googleads-ima-flash/releasesI have compiled it in FlashDevelop using Flex 4.6, linking ima_lib_as3.swc (from yesterday), and running it in Firefox and Chrome - in both cases, the default ad tags work ok:
private static const LINEAR_AD_TAG:String =
"
http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/ads?sz=400x300&" +
"iu=%2F6062%2Fiab_vast_samples&ciu_szs=300x250%2C728x90&impl=s&" +
"gdfp_req=1&env=vp&output=xml_vast2&unviewed_position_start=1&" +
"url=[referrer_url]&correlator=[timestamp]&" +
"cust_params=iab_vast_samples%3Dlinear";
private static const NONLINEAR_AD_TAG:String =
"
http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/ads?sz=400x300&" +
"iu=%2F6062%2Fiab_vast_samples&ciu_szs=300x250%2C728x90&" +
"impl=s&gdfp_req=1&env=vp&output=xml_vast2&unviewed_position_start=1&" +
"url=[referrer_url]&correlator=[timestamp]&" +
"cust_params=iab_vast_samples%3Dimageoverlay";
However, as soon as I try the adtag formated according to
https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/3112148?hl=en&ref_topic=1706004 , ie.
private static const MY_AD_TAG1 : String = "
http://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/ads?ad_type=video_image_text_flash&client=ca-video-pub-4968145218643279&videoad_start_delay=0&description_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com&max_ad_duration=40000&adtest=on";
or even the minimalistic "
http://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/ads?client=ca-video-afvtest&ad_type=video&description_url=http%3A%2F%2Fmyurl.com%2Fpage%3Fkey%3Dvalue%26key2%3Dvalue2" (taken literally from the FAQ),
and put it into IMA sample 1.3, it doesn't work anymore and throws errors in Firefox:
Warning: Domain

But in chrome it's a different error:
error Error: Ad adLoadError error: No ads were found in the ad response. At least one ad is required to be able to load or play. errorCode: 1001
In both cases the FlashPlayer version visible upon right clicking is 11.9.900.152
What could be wrong with my setup?
We want to use AdSense for Games, and my partner-publisher already has someone assigned to cooperate with. But still DFP account isn't required for ASG, and certainly shouldn't be for testing purposes...
PS sorry for the delay, I had to postpone this project for a while.
