Video download protection

[XP 2600]

Hello all,

Currently i am using Ant community edition for live streaming recorded videos, its working very nice, and there is no download option on web page, but there is only one issue, a user can download videos using Internet download manager, is there any feature to prevent it? even if by switching to Enterprise edition ? thanks.

Hi,

I think it is very difficult to control the downloads as even if some development is done, one can still download it using different extensions. 

You can use stream security features to limit the players as per your use case.

True protection of content can only be achieved through DRM. Other than that you can make it really difficult fir people to get the video. Here are some ways 

1. Use token to restrict access to resource 

2. Disable cache through headers and Webster er settings 

3. Use hls instead of mp4. Fragments cans make it somewhat difficult to obtain and organise the entire video 

4. Some hls player allow encryption option for fragments that are decoded on player side. Look into that.
