One time video

[Jacques]

I used the Windows Media Player Add-in for Microsoft FrontPage to insert a
video. The user has to pay to see it.
I don't want that the user copies the web address and give it to someone
else. This person would see the video without paying. How can I avoid that?

How do I stop people from viewing my code or copying my pictures

Despite what anybody tells you - it is IMPOSSIBLE to stop people viewing
your
code or copying your pictures

To save you looking any further - IT CAN'T BE DONE.

To see why check the sites below:

I am very surprised. Many web sites sell videos or informations, movies, etc.
If I pay one this web site, then I copy the web address of one of these
videos then if I'm not honest, I can sell the link to people and make profit.
I'm sure these companies have a way to prevent that.

When I view your Video it is already downloaded on my PC I can save it in a
folder and I can make a million copy's or ( DVD's ) and send them to any one
that wants one.

" People talk about downloading or copying from their site or their server.
These are incorrect. This downloading happens when the page and graphics are
requested by the browser. The fundamental architecture of the web is that
your server sends to the browser a complete copy of the HTML and a complete
copy of the graphics.
When a person displays your page, all the HTML and every graphic has already
been downloaded and stored on their computer. It is the way the web works.

All the person is doing when they cut/paste is to copy from one part of
their computer to another.

Or, in other words, you need to understand that a complete downloaded copy
of your page already exists on their computer. It is how their browser can
display it. "

What about streaming audio and video?

 

[DI]

Yes.

Step 1: Create the streaming files
Streaming audio or video files can be created from an existing digital file,
or by digitizing a tape or CD.
Prepare for streaming:
Record the audio or video.
Create a digital file (digitize from a tape/CD) or from a digital video
camera.
Convert the digital file into a streaming format
for audio I use MusicMatch 9 to digitize and compress the files into a
streaming format :

For video I use Pinnacle Studio Plus or WindowsMovie Maker to digitize and
compress the files into a streaming format.
