<p>I have a video that will be hosted on a few different sites that I do not have access to the HTML on. I am looking for some help with the coding for the instances of the video that are not hosted on our site.
Currently the tracking method that I am using for the video that is
hosted on our site is as follows:</p>
<pre name="code" class="as3">on (release) {
//Track with action
getURL("javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/video/getDeal.php');");
_root.gotoAndPlay(4);
myVar = "Video Play From GetDeal";
}</pre>
<p>That code is in AS2 I am pretty sure to do what I am looking to do I will have to switch to AS3 which I have no clue about yet.</p>
<p>I would like to see an example of the most efficient way to track the video when it is hosted off of our site the video has a simple interface, video loads on page load, play button appears, once play button is clicked video pays, video ends button appears to visit the site.</p>
<p>The data I would like to see in GA is:</p>
<ul>
<li>
# of video loads
</li>
<li>
# of times play is clicked
</li>
<li>
Length video is watched (eg. did they watch the whole thing or leave half way)
</li>
<li>
# of people who clicked visit site at the end of the video
</li>
</ul>
<p>Thanks for any help you may be able to give.</p>
