<p><strong>Truce Label Video Player with VAST Ads</strong> is a lightweight WordPress video player that plays your own video and shows a single <strong>post-roll</strong> video ad — a VAST ad that runs when the video finishes. Add it to any post or page with a Gutenberg block or a shortcode.</p>
<p>It is built to stay out of your server’s way: there is <strong>no server-side fetching, no custom database tables, and no cron jobs</strong>. Your ad tag and settings live in a single WordPress option, the player uses the browser’s native <code><video></code> element (no heavy third-party libraries are loaded), and the ad is rendered entirely in the visitor’s browser by Google’s IMA SDK. The player script and the ad code load <strong>only on pages that actually contain a player</strong>, so the rest of your site is untouched.</p>
<h4>What the free version does</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Native MP4 playback</strong> in every modern browser, plus <strong>HLS</strong> (<code>.m3u8</code>) in browsers that support it natively (Safari and iOS).</li>
<li><strong>One post-roll video ad</strong> when the video ends, using a single VAST tag URL from your own ad network.</li>
<li><strong>Native skip handling</strong> — the ad’s own <code>skipoffset</code> controls whether it can be skipped; the IMA SDK draws the skip button automatically.</li>
<li><strong>Graceful ad failure</strong> — if the ad errors or does not load within 8 seconds, playback ends cleanly with no black screen.</li>
<li><strong>Gutenberg block + shortcode</strong> — add the <strong>VAST Video Player</strong> block, or use <code>[vastvp_player]</code> in classic content.</li>
<li><strong>Optional poster image</strong> for the pre-play thumbnail (no scraping, no network calls).</li>
<li><strong>Responsive</strong> and touch-friendly.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Shortcode example</h4>
<pre><code>[vastvp_player video="https://example.com/video.mp4" poster="https://example.com/thumb.jpg" postroll="https://your-ad-network.example/vast.xml"]
</code></pre>
<p>If you set a global post-roll tag under Settings, you can omit the <code>postroll</code> attribute and it will be used automatically.</p>
<h4>Upgrade to Pro</h4>
<p><strong>VAST Pro Player Ultimate</strong> (a separate add-on from <a href="https://trucelabel.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Truce Label</a>) builds on this free player and adds:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Pre-roll</strong> ads (before the video starts) and <strong>mid-roll</strong> ads (at timed intervals during playback), with a configurable interval.</li>
<li>A <strong>four-slot VAST rotation</strong> with automatic fallback between tags.</li>
<li><strong>Iframe-embed support</strong> — wrap a video embedded from another host in the player.</li>
<li>A second, <strong>banner / social-bar ad engine</strong> — closeable, non-blocking overlays that don’t pause the video, as an A/B alternative to VAST.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Get Pro for $5/month:</strong> <a href="https://checkout.freemius.com/plugin/31537/plan/51775/" rel="nofollow ugc">Upgrade now</a> — or <a href="https://checkout.freemius.com/plugin/31537/plan/51775/?trial=paid" rel="nofollow ugc">start a 3-day trial</a>.</p>
<p>The free version is fully functional on its own; Pro is optional. Learn more at <a href="https://trucelabel.com" rel="nofollow ugc">trucelabel.com</a>.</p>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin relies on the following third-party services, which run only on pages where the player is present:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Google IMA SDK</strong> — loaded from Google to render your VAST video ad in the visitor’s browser. See Google’s <a href="https://developers.google.com/interactive-media-ads/docs/sdks/html5/client-side/terms" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Service</a> and <a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>.</li>
<li><strong>Your configured VAST ad endpoint</strong> — the VAST tag URL you paste in the settings is requested by the visitor’s browser when the video ends, to fetch the ad. This is the ad network <em>you</em> choose; please review that network’s terms and privacy policy.</li>
</ul>
<p>The plugin sends no data to Truce Label and contacts no other services.</p>
