how to block people steal my video player and waste my band?

#1 Postby geekev69 » Nov 29, 2010 6:22 pm

hi guys,

I need your help.
Is there anyway to block people to take my JW player away and put everywhere?

I do not provide video embed option but people just easily manage to do it and hence it causes huge bandwidth waste.

Please help me.

Add following code to your main .htaccess file:

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?yourdomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule \.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|swf)$ - [NC,F,L]
You might add other extentions as well if you want to.

It checks from what website a file is loaded using the referrer function. You can put any extension you want. Just make sure you replace "yourdomain.com" with your own domain.

that is really cool!

I think this is the one I was looking for!
BTW can we go further?
Is it possible to implement the function that
video player(JW player) will show the screen "please come to mydomain.com and watch this video" so people click the screen and
automatically move to that file page and watch video?


btw komi, can we talk on messenger?
I also got other things to discuss and not gonna ask you for free :D

it seems you are using Allow All ip settings & hence ppl can easily create links from your file servers and make it working even with their own player; so what you are asking for wont work unless you can stop hotlinking on your file servers

Use the code I gave you and add the cronjob as I told you earlier today.
