I was curious as to how Apple was handling pre-roll promos and ads. These pre-rolls are pretty clearly dynamic (i.e. not burned into the playlist) since sometimes I don't get them, and can be multi-stage (e.g. Foundation episodes usually have three independent ones). HLS Interstitials are very new and Apple TV's pre-rolls predate its support, so naturally I wanted to know how this was done.
