Can we add any node on ad screen when roku ad is playing?

I am working on roku app using scene graph component. I am using RAF to show ads before
video playing and this is working properly for me. My code is…

timestamp = CreateObject("roDateTime")
adUrl = "https://www.bowhunting.com/wp-content/themes/bowhunting/vmap.php?id=" + episode.ContentId + "&c=" + timestamp.AsSeconds().ToStr()

adIface = Roku_Ads()
adIface.setAdUrl(adUrl)
adPods = adIface.getAds()
shouldPlayContent = adIface.showAds(adPods)

I want to show a button like skip button in right-bottom corner. When user press on skip button, ad should be exit.

Is this possible to add this type of functionality when ad is playing?

Thanks

It’s not possible if you’re using RAF’s video player, but technically you could implement a skip feature if you use RAF’s custom ad rendering functionality.

Be aware that I noticed this recently in the Channel Certification Checklist, “11.14 - Ads can’t be skipped by pressing the “back” button on Remote”.

Updating this thread for posterity - that mandate is not present anymore, https://forums.roku.com/viewtopic.php?f … 57#p550666
