Protecting Flash Content

TeviH · 05-13-2007, 09:03 AM

Hello!

I have two questions regarding protecting flash content:

1. If I have video (say, .mov file) being pulled from actionscript into a swf file, would people be able to find out the path to the video and/or be able to extract the video from the swf file in their cache?

2. How can I disable a swf file from running if it's not on my specific servers?

If anyone has any other pointers about how I might be able to protect flash video content, please let me know! I am basically looking to show an embedded .mov file online, but I don't want people to be able to save that file or view it later.

Thanks!

Sorry I don't have all the answers, but the answer to that question is yes.
