How to track midroll playback and click

Just use javascript and simple function like:

Code snippet

<script>
   player.on('vroll', function(event, data) {
	var midroll_id = data.id;
	var action = data.action;
   });
</script>

Now you know what is midroll id and what action is ('play', 'skip', 'completed' or 'click');
You can make use of data sent. For example, use Ajax + php to save data values in database.
