no... I'm busy today... but in a nutshell, forget about htaccess for vids.... not gonna work. You either use a rotator script to constantly rename them & the paths so no one can get a grip on them long enough to hotlink, or you bury them deep as you can in a subfolder somewhere & take your chances without protection.

This has been fully hashed out before here... do a search on the topic and you'll see some good stuff from Lane and some others who dissected the problem to it's bone.

If they've come up with a new solution since then, I haven't heard of it.

best of luck...
