Hello guys, It is always been a pleasure to sort out problems with the help of tonnes of experts present in this forum. So here I am with my question - How can we exactly track flash video or a streaming video with google analytics ? So that we could fetch an idea how long the videos was being played, where paused, or when left etc. Just like normal webpage tracking, can we track videos as well ? Looking for helpful replies. Thanks in advance.
What's that, whether I have chosen a wrong section for posting or someone really don't know about the issue ? What's goin on ?
'whats' going on' was a weekend. You do it with event tracking, and assign specific events or actions to be tracked - such as starting the video, stopping the video etc. the basic event tracking of 'watching a video' is comparatively simple - you can add more detail in the code if you feel you need it.
