Staines-upon-Thames, UK 17th January 2018 Yospace and NexStreaming have today announced an integration that simplifies the route to market for broadcasters wishing to monetise their live OTT streams.The companies have pre-integrated Yospaces HTML5 SDK into the NexPlayer HTML5 player, allowing Yospaces multi-award-winning Server-Side Dynamic Ad Insertion to be accompanied by real-time, client-side tracking.
