    Function replaceAdMessagePlaceholders

    • Fills out placeholders in an ad message.

      Has the following placeholders, which are replaced with:

      • '{remainingTime[formatString]}': the remaining time until the ad can be skipped
      • '{playedTime[formatString]}': the current time
      • '{adDuration[formatString]}': the ad duration
      • '{adBreakRemainingTime[formatString]}': the total remaining time of all ads in the ad break
      • '{activeAdIndex[formatString]}': the number of the currently played ad within the current ad break by default, or activeAdIndex if provided. activeAdIndex can be used to show the index of the current ad across multiple ad breaks with the same schedule time.
      • '{totalAdsCount[formatString]}': the total number of ads in the current ad break by default, or totalNumberOfAds if provided. totalNumberOfAds can be used to show the number of ads across multiple ad breaks with the same schedule time.

      The format string is optional. If not specified, the placeholder is replaced by the time in seconds. If specified, it must be of the following format:

      • %d - Inserts the time as an integer.
      • %0Nd - Inserts the time as an integer with leading zeroes, if the length of the time string is smaller than N.
      • %f - Inserts the time as a float.
      • %0Nf - Inserts the time as a float with leading zeroes.
      • %.Mf - Inserts the time as a float with M decimal places. Can be combined with %0Nf, e.g. %04.2f (the time 10.123 would be printed as 0010.12).
      • %hh:mm:ss
      • %mm:ss

      Examples:

      • { text: 'Ad: {remainingTime%mm:ss} secs' } An input value of 100 would be displayed as: 'Ad: 01:40 secs'
      • { text: 'Ad: {remainingTime%f} secs' } An input value of 100 would be displayed as: 'Ad: 100.0 secs'
      • { text: 'Adbreak: {adBreakRemainingTime%f} secs' } Adbreak with 2 ads each 50 seconds would be displayed as: 'Ad: 100.0 secs'
