In comparison, Digital Video Advertising includes all ad formats within webpage-based videos, app-based video players, social media, or streaming apps that appear on computer screens, smartphones, tablets, and other internet-connected devices.

Instream video ads include advertising that appears before, during, or after the streamed video (pre-roll, mid-roll, and post-roll video ads) and video overlays (text- or image-based overlays that appear while watching a video). Outstream video ads include video advertising that appears in non-video environments, e.g., in-feed on social media or text-based content (so-called native advertising).
