Android SDK API Reference

Engineering Portal / Digital / Android SDK API Reference
The Nielsen App SDK (located in the com.nielsen.app.sdk package) class is the primary application interface to the Nielsen App SDK on Android.

• Create and initialize an instance object of AppSdk class.
• The player application can use this object to collect HLS timed metadata through a sendID3() call.

The Nielsen App SDK class is defined as the only public class belonging to the com.nielsen.app.sdk package. It inherits from the closeable interface and exposes the public APIs the client’s app will use. Below is the declaration of the AppSdk class: public class AppSdk implements Closeable

Setting Up Development Environment

Nielsen App SDK is compatible with Android OS versions 2.3+. Clients can control / configure the protocol to be used – HTTPS or HTTP to suit their needs.

The Nielsen App SDK 1.2 library is composed of two parts:

• The Java AppSdk.jar library that runs on the Android’s Dalvik Virtual Machine.
• The C/C++ libAppSdk.so native library that runs directly on the device’s hardware.

Note: App SDK 4.0.0 contains AppSDK.jar component only and does not support C/C++ libAppSdk.so components.

Import.

• Select Existing Android Code into Workspace and click Next.
• Click Browse and navigate to the google-play-services_lib to include it into the projects.
• Select the exact Project Build Target for Eclipse to use from Android SDK.
  • Android 4.4.2, etc. OR
  • Edit project.properties file to point to Android target version e.g. target= android-19.

Once the google-play-services_lib is included into the App project, include the following code under the <application> node in the AndroidManifest.xml.

<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version" android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version"/>

Also, include the version.xml file that comes with the google-play-services_lib under the res/values directory of the media player project.

• Once the files are in place, import com.nielsen.app.sdk to the java source code and start accessing the public interface.

Nielsen App SDK uses the following packages/classes from the Google Play service.

Library:

• google-play-services_lib

Classes/package:

• com.google.android.gms.ads.identifier.AdvertisingIdClient;
• com.google.android.gms.ads.identifier.AdvertisingIdClient.Info;
• com.google.android.gms.common.ConnectionResult;
• com.google.android.gms.common.GooglePlayServicesUtil;
• com.google.android.gms.common.GooglePlayServicesRepairableException;
• com.google.android.gms.common.GooglePlayServicesNotAvailableException;

Setting up in Android Studio IDE

Launch Android Studio and select Import project (Eclipse ADT).

Browse for project destination directory and click Next.

Go to File > Project Structure > App > Dependencies.

Click + to add library dependency.

Select play-services and click OK

Initialization

Android Application Life Cycle with respect to Nielsen App SDK

Step 1: App SDK initialization

For API version 4.0.0 and above

AppSDK() is no longer a singleton object and should be initialized as below.

Initialization of App SDK object through a JSON object

JSONObject config = null;
 
try
{
  // Prepare AppSdk configuration object (JSONObject)
  JSONObject appSdkConfig = new JSONObject()
          .put("appid", "TXXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX")
          .put("appname", "Sample App Name")
          .put("sfcode", "uat-cert")
          .put("nol_devDebug", "INFO") // only for debug builds
          .put("custom_key1", "custom_value1")
          .put("custom_key2", "custom_value2");
// Pass appSdkConfig to the AppSdk constructor
mAppSdk = new AppSdk(appContext, appSdkConfig, appSdkListener);
}
catch (JSONException e)
{
  Log.e(TAG, "Couldn’t prepare JSONObject for appSdkConfig", e);
}

Here, appContext is the App context object and appSdkConfig is JSON object for holding the parameters (appid, appname, sfcode) the App passes to the Nielsen App SDK via a JSON string. The appid is obtained from Nielsen operational support and is unique to the app.

Android Application Life Cycle with respect to Nielsen App SDK

Step 2: App SDK libraries inclusion in project

The integration of Nielsen App SDK will depend on type of client app.

• Ensure that SDK files (AppSdk.jar and libAppSdk.so [App SDK 1.2 Only]) are included under the App’s project and the App SDK is linked to the App (the setting to link App SDK to the App can be found on property page of the App’s project).

Step 3: Nielsen App SDK Streaming Sessions

After ensuring that the SDK object has been initialized, link the streaming session APIs. The next steps are:

• Call play() when starting or resuming a streaming session. Use the channelName parameter to pass channel descriptor information. The channel name field is a 32-character free-form text field containing the name of the program or feed being sent (such as ESPN2, Food Network, etc.) which must be inserted on a JSON string.
• Load the CMS metadata by calling the loadMetadata() on the SDK object.
• Call stop() when ending or pausing a viewing session.
• During session playback, call the SDK setPlayheadPosition() and / or sendID3()
  • Call setPlayheadPosition() every one second until the stream is stopped or paused. Normally this happens on Digital Audio measurements.
  • Call sendID3() if the client relies on the Nielsen ID3 tags for its measurements; this call should happen whenever a new Nielsen ID3 metadata is available for processing. Normally this happens on DTVR and ID3 measurements.

Nielsen App SDK object handles filtering of ID3 tags and CMS tags, queuing/buffering of data, and all communications with Nielsen collection facility.

• The client’s app must clearly identify the mode of operation (live vs. VOD) and stick to the type of playhead coordinates until the playback is completed. The client must reliably provide the appropriated playhead position value depending on the type of content streamed.
• If streaming live video content, the client must pass the current UTC time in seconds as playhead position.
• If streaming VOD (video on demand), the client must stream the offset from the beginning of the file as playhead position.
• For all Digital Audio listening, the client must pass the current UTC time in seconds as playhead position, regardless of station type.

Retrieving ID3 Tags

ID3 tags have a payload of about 249 characters and start with "www.nielsen.com".

Sample ID3 tags

• www.nielsen.com/X100zdCIGeIlgZnkYj6UvQ==/X100zdCIGeIlgZnkYj6UvQ==/AAAB2Jz2_k74GXSzx4npHuI_JwJd3QSUpW30rDkGTcbHEzIMWleCzM-uvNOP9fzJcQMWQLJqzXMCAxParOb5sGijSV9dNM3QiBniJYGZ5GI-lL1fXTTN0IgZ4iWBmeRiPpS9AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAFJWFM5SVhTONNU=/00000/00000/00
• www.nielsen.com/X100zdCIGeIlgZnkYj6UvQ==/R8WHe7pEBeqBhu8jTeXydg==/AAICoyitYqlxT7n6aZ0oMCGheFi4CXFp46AMUPZz1lMr_M9tr3_cjee1SHqxrOiVerMDLeyn9xzocZSKwi746Re8vNOtpNCAZjYABs_J0R25IHpvOc1HS8QHGgD5TgOJeS6gX100zdCIGeIlgZnkYj6UvVJWFNhSVhTiPE0=/00000/46016/00

Note: ID3 tags are not applicable for International (Germany)

Extracting ID3 tags from Android Players

ID3 Support Matrix

Player Name	Minimum supported version	Description
Android Native Media Player	Android 6	Android 6 Media Player allows apps to register a callback to be invoked, when a selected track has the timed metadata available. Currently, only HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) data URI’s embedded with timed ID3 tags, generates TimedMetaData.
Google ExoPlayer	Android 4.1
Brightcove Player	Android 4.1	announcement]
Adobe PrimeTime Player	Android 4.2
VisualOn Player	Android 2.3	Android 5 is the latest supported version
NexStream Player	Android 1.6	Supported till Android 6

Android Native Media Player

As the Android Media Player versions (prior to Android 6 / Android API 23) do not support ID3, Nielsen has created a library that becomes an extension to the media player, thus MPX. This library extracts the ID3 tags and sends them to the app. For more information on how to use the MPX component, refer to the Nielsen-supplied sample application.

Starting from Android 6 (Android API 23), Android Native Media Player allows apps to register a callback to be invoked, when a selected track has the timed metadata available. Currently, only HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) data URI’s embedded with timed ID3 tags generate TimedMetadata. Once the HLS video starts, call onTimedMetaDataAvailable() as and when the player observes a TimedMetadata (ID3 tag).

@Override
   public void onTimedMetaDataAvailable(MediaPlayer mp, TimedMetaData data)
     {
       byte[] iD3PayloadArray = data.getMetaData();
       String iD3Payload = new String(iD3PayloadArray, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
       if (null != iD3Payload && iD3Payload.contains("www.nielsen.com"))
         {
           int index = iD3Payload.indexOf("www.nielsen.com");
           String id3String = iD3Payload.substring(index, (index + 249));
           Log.d(TAG, "TimedMetaData ID3 Tag:" + id3String);
           appProcessID3tag(id3String);
         }
     }

ExoPlayer

he SDK is designed around an event-driven architecture where components emit events to allow other components to listen and respond to state changes.

Player SDK Classes used:

com.google.android.exoplayer.demo.player.DemoPlayer

Since Nielsen App SDK is interested in extracting the Timed Metadata (ID3 Tags) in HLS and VOD on the EXO Player, trace the ID3_TAG emitted during video content played using EXOPlayer component as below.

DemoPlayer implements ExoPlayer.Listener
—————————————————–
/**
* A listener for receiving ID3 metadata parsed from the media stream.
*/
public interface Id3MetadataListener
{
  void onId3Metadata(Map<String, Object> metadata);
}
——————————————————-
MetadataTrackRenderer.MetadataRenderer<Map<String,
Object>> getId3MetadataRenderer()
  {
    return new MetadataTrackRenderer.MetadataRenderer<Map<String, Object>>()
      {
        @Override
        public void onMetadata(Map<String, Object> metadata)
          {
            if (id3MetadataListener != null)
              {
                id3MetadataListener.onId3Metadata(metadata);
              }
          }
      };
  }

Also in Player.java class:

Player implements DemoPlayer.Id3MetadataListener
—————————————————–
@SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
@Override
public void onId3Metadata(Map<String, Object> metadata)
{
  try
    {
      for (Object o : metadata.entrySet())
        {
          Map.Entry pairs = (Map.Entry) o;
          if (metadata.containsKey(TxxxMetadata.TYPE))
            {
              TxxxMetadata txxxMetadata = (TxxxMetadata) metadata
              .get(TxxxMetadata.TYPE);
            }
          else
            {
              String aStr = new String((byte[]) pairs.getValue());
              MainActivity.mAppSdk.sendID3(aStr);
            }
        }
    }
  catch (Exception e)
    {
      e.printStackTrace();
      Log.d(TAG, "onId3Metadata(): No Id3 tags");
    }
}

Brightcove Player

While the Brightcove player plays the content, EventListener triggers an event when an ID3 packet is received (SeamlessVideoDisplayComponent.ID3_TAG). Upon receiving this event, collect the incoming ID3 tags and only pass the Nielsen payload of the PRIV frame to the App SDK for analysis.

brightcoveVideoView.getEventEmitter().on(SeamlessVideoDisplayComponent.ID3_TAG, new EventListener()
  {
    public void processEvent(Event event)
      {
        NlsId3Tag nlsID3 = new NlsId3Tag(event.properties.get(SeamlessVideoDisplayComponent.ID3_DATA).toString());
        Log.w("ID3", nlsID3.NlsPayload);
        // Sent ID3 Tags to App
        appProcessID3tag(nlsID3.NlsPayload);
      }
      });
  }

Adobe PrimeTime Player

While the Adobe PrimeTime player plays the content, MediaPlayer.PlaybackEventListener triggers a callback when an ID3 packet is received (onTimedMetadata). Upon receiving this event, collect the incoming ID3 tags and only pass the Nielsen payload of the PRIV frame to the App SDK for analysis.

public void onTimedMetadata(TimedMetadata id3Metadata)
{
  NlsId3Tag nlsID3 = new NlsId3Tag(id3Metadata.getMetadata().toString());
  Log.w(LOG_TAG, "ID3 Timed Data –> " + nlsID3.NlsPayload);
  Log.w(LOG_TAG, "PayLoad Size –> " + nlsID3.NlsPayload.length());
  appProcessID3tag(nlsID3.NlsPayload);
}

VisualOn Player

While the VisualOn player plays the content, VOCommonPlayerListener triggers an event when an ID3 packet is received (VO_OSMP_SRC_CUSTOMERTAGID_TIMEDTAG). Upon receiving this event, collect the incoming ID3 tags and only pass the Nielsen payload of the PRIV frame to the App SDK for analysis.

case VO_OSMP_SRC_CB_CUSTOMER_TAG:
{
  VO_OSMP_SRC_CUSTOMERTAGID tag = VO_OSMP_SRC_CUSTOMERTAGID.valueOf(nParam1);
  switch (tag)
    {
      case VO_OSMP_SRC_CUSTOMERTAGID_TIMEDTAG:
      // do something with this tag
      int time = nParam2;
      byte[] b = (byte[]) obj;
      String s = new String(b);
      NlsId3Tag nlsID3 = new NlsId3Tag(b);
      // Sent ID3 Tags to App
      appProcessID3tag(nlsID3.NlsPayload);
      if (appid3If != null)
      appid3If.onId3(nlsID3.NlsPayload);
      break;
      case VO_OSMP_SRC_CUSTOMERTAGID_MAX:
      // ignore this type of tag
      break;
      default:
      break;
    }
      break;
}

NextStream Player

ID3 tags will be received in the NexStream Player through onTimedMetaRenderRender(NexPlayer mp,NexID3TagInformation metadata) callback API. A sample implementation for the callback is shown below:

public void onTimedMetaRenderRender(NexPlayer mp, NexID3TagInformation m)
  {
    text = m.getPrivateFrame();
    if (text != null)
      {
        data = text.getTextData();
        if (data != null)
          {
            // make sure to identify the beginning  of  the
            // Nielsen ID3 tag payload by searching for the
            // "www.nielsen.com" string on the ID3 tag and
            // passing to the App SDK all information that
            // follows. It should be:
            // nlsPayload = "www.nielsen.com" + dataFollowing
            nlsPayload = getDataAfterWwwNielsenCom(data);
            if (nlsPayload!= NULL)
            mAppSdk.sendID3(nlsPayload);
          }
      }
  }

The sendID3() sends the extracted Nielsen ID3 payload to the App SDK for analysis.

Android SDK API Methods & Properties

Scenario	Method / Property	DTVR	DAR	Digital Audio	DCR	International (Germany)	Description
Initialize	AppSDK()	✔	✔	✔	✔	✔	Used to create a new instance of the SDK object
Measurement	play()	✔	✔	✔	✔	✔	Used when there is an ID3 fed product such as DTVR and the client does not want to send in all the CMS metadata that is sent in loadMetadata. This allows the client to send in at least the required “channel name” value associated to the ID3 feed. If this is not called then the “channel name” value populated will be the default value of “defaultChannelName”.
Measurement	loadMetadata()	✔	✔	✔	✔	✔	Used when there is a preroll ad that needs to be associated with content metadata. The loadmetadata will first be called to populate the content metadata values and then the loadMetadata for ad metadata will be called. This allows sending a content ping with the ad info, even if the user bails out during the preroll ad.
Measurement	sendID3()	✔	✘	✘	✘	✘	Used to send the ID3 metadata.
Measurement	setPlayheadPosition()	✘	✘	✔	✔	✔	Used to send the playhead position.
Measurement	stop()	✔	✘	✔	✔	✔	Used when playback is paused and when switching between ad and content or content and ad.
Measurement	end()	✔	✘	✔	✔	✔	Used when content playback is complete. This is triggered 1) at the end of the content stream, 2) if the user switches to another piece of content
Measurement	updateOTT()	✘	✘	✘	✘	✔	Used to notify App SDK that the remote OTT device (like Google ChromeCast, Roku, Amazon FireTV, etc.) is connected / disconnected (change of OTT status).
Opt-out	userOptOutURLString()	✔	✔	✔	✔	✔	Used to fetch the Nielsen opt-out web page URL.
Opt-out	userOptOut()	✔	✔	✔	✔	✔	Used to supply the response message from opt-out webpage to the SDK.
Opt-out	getOptOutStatus()	✘	✘	✘	✘	✔	Call this API to retrieve the Opt-Out or Opt-In state.

Android Opt-Out Implementation

To opt out, users must have access to "About Nielsen Measurement" page. User can click this page from app settings screen.

Include About Nielsen Measurement and Your Choices link in the Privacy Policy / EULA or as a button near the link to the app's Privacy Policy.

• URL to this web page should be called from SDK by invoking userOptOutURLString() and opened in 'WebView' / External browser.
• If the App SDK returns NULL as Opt-Out URL, handle the exception gracefully and retry later.
• To retrieve the current Opt-Out status of a device, use the getOptOutStatus() method.

Displaying Opt-Out in a WebView

optOutUrl = mAppSdk.userOptOutURLString();
if(optOutUrl !=null)
{
   mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
   mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
   mWebView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
   mWebView.getSettings().setDisplayZoomControls(false);
   mWebView.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
   mWebView.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
   mWebView.setWebViewClient(new MonitorWebView());
   mWebView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());
   mWebView.loadUrl(optOutUrl);
}
else
{
   //Handle it gracefully and Retry later
}

The app must provide access to "About Nielsen Measurement" page for the users. Include "About Nielsen Measurement" and Your Choices link in the Privacy Policy / EULA or as a button near the link to the app's Privacy Policy.

Note: When ‘WebView’ / External browser is closed, do not pass the status returned from ‘WebView’ / External browser to the SDK within the app, as the new Opt-Out page will not return any response.

Note: App SDK manages the user’s choice (Opt-Out / Opt-In), the app does not need to manage this status.

Sequence Diagram

Opt-out Android SDK Version 5.1.1.18 or above

Note: If using Android SDK Versions 1.2.3, 4.0.0.8, 5.1.0, 5.1.1.14, skip ahead to: Opt-out Android SDK Version 1.2.3, 4.0.0.8, 5.1.0, 5.1.1.14

Starting from SDK version 5.1.1.18, Opt-Out related behavior has been changed in the following ways:

• SDK will be sending the data pings to census even though SDK is opted out (In earlier releases all the traffic from SDK to census will be ceased). However, all the outgoing pings will have the parameter uoo=true using which backend can ignore this data.
• Current Opt-Out page is now updated to have no hyperlinks for Opt-Out / Opt-In operations. SDK Opt-Out has to be done via

Google Settings → Ads → Opt out of Ads Personalization.

Note: For Amazon devices, see Opt-Out Implementation for Amazon Devices below.

Note: For API Version 5.1 and above, App SDK will fire data pings and continue measurement even after the user has opted out from Nielsen measurement on a device. The data ping will be marked as opted-out ping.

Opt-out Android SDK Version 1.2.3, 4.0.0.8, 5.1.0, 5.1.1.14

Note: If using Android SDK Version 5.1.1.18 or above, refer to documentation above (Opt-out Android SDK Version 5.1.1.18 or above)

When a user clicks the Opt-Out / Opt-In link, the application should invoke optOutURL to get the link to the Nielsen Privacy page from SDK.

Privacy Page

• There are two click here links – one for Opt-Out and one for Opt-In. Click the required link:
  • Capture user’s selection
  • Pass the selection back to the SDK via the userOptOut().

Capture and forward user selection

private class MonitorWebView extends WebViewClient
{
  private static final String NIELSEN_URL_OPT_OUT = “nielsenappsdk://1”;
  private static final String NIELSEN_URL_OPT_IN = “nielsenappsdk://0”;
 
  @Override
  public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)
  {
    if (NIELSEN_URL_OPT_OUT.equals(url)
      || NIELSEN_URL_OPT_IN.equals(url))
    {
      // Get AppSdk instance from the host
      AppSdk appSdk = HostApp.getAppSdk();
      // Send the URL to the AppSdk instance
      appSdk.userOptOut(url);
      return true;
    }
    return false;
  }
}

Note: When 'WebView' is closed, pass the status returned from 'WebView' to the SDK within the app.

Note: App SDK manages the user's choice (Opt-Out / Opt-In), the app does not need to manage this status.

Opt-Out Implementation for Amazon Devices

Amazon device users can opt out or opt back into Nielsen Measurement, any time using the device’s setting – 'Limit Ad Tracking' (Interest-based ads).

User is opted out of Nielsen Online Measurement when ‘Limit Ad Tracking’ is enabled.

For devices running on Fire OS 5.1 and above, retrieve the Ad tracking value.

Retrieving Ad tracking Value

ContentResolver cr = getContentResolver();
int limitAdTracking = Secure.getInt(cr, "limit_ad_tracking", 2);

• Returns limit_ad_tracking value "0" if enabled
• Returns limit_ad_tracking value "1" if disabled
• Returns limit_ad_tracking value "2" if ad tracking is not supported (below Fire OS 5.1).

Note: Google Play Services are not needed to retrieve ad tracking state on Amazon devices. Limit Ad Tracking can be accessed through Settings → Apps & Games → Advertising ID.

Nielsen Sample Applications

Nielsen Privacy Requirements

Privacy protections that Nielsen ensures to have with each App SDK integration are as follows.

• Disclosure of viewership data collection in app store description
• Disclosure of viewership data collection in EULA / Privacy Policy
• A link in the EULA/Privacy policy, or in another conspicuous location within the App, to a Nielsen-hosted web page outlining what Nielsen is collecting and how it is being used
• Method for users to opt-out of Nielsen measurement, any time while using the application
