Abstract
Systems and methods presented herein provide for countering functionality on a UE that prevents the UE from requesting asset insertion into COD content. An ADS evaluates and ranks a plurality of assets for insertion into the selected COD content. A request manager determines that the UE is blocking a request for asset insertion into COD content selected by the UE, and generates a message for the UE requesting payload delivery information for the selected COD content based on the determination. The message circumvents the blocking and directs the UE to request asset insertion. The request manager processes a response from the UE for the payload delivery information, extracts a request for asset insertion from the response, directs the ADS to select a first of the assets based on the ranking, and directs the remote COD provider to insert the first asset with the selected COD content.
