    configuring .htaccess for embedded movies

    been trying to figure this out for the longest,, no one seems to know,,,

    basically i want to embedd a .WMV video on a webpage on a secure members area...

    it seems like the video isn't passing a valid refer and it isn't loading.. and also i can't right click to download,, or click it to play,,

    it gets redirected to the rewrite,,

    this is my content url and all i have configured in my .htaccess is

    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.domain.net/.*$ [NC]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://domain.net/.*$ [NC]
    RewriteRule /*$ http://www.redirect.com/ [L,R]


    can someone please help,,

    thanks in advance

              Ask K-Man. He posted this gallery last night. http://www.xxlscreen.com/hard2107t.htm

              My Windows Media Player is acting up so I can't play any MPEGs by clicking. I tried to download one of these to watch it and I couldn't (and was oh so frustrated! ) I couldn't figure it out from the source code but whatever it is I'd like to know about it so I can use it on my sites.
              .
              .
              .
              Does anyone know how to uninstall Windows Media Player? It is suspiciously absent from the uninstall programs section in the control panel. Maybe I'll just try to re-install over it.
              I've trusted my sites to them for over a decade...

              Webair, bitches.

                  What about something like this?

                  Add this rule to your .htaccess file in your movie directory:

                  RewriteEngine on
                  RewriteOptions inherit
                  RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://([a-z0-9-]+\.)*yourdomain.com/ [NC]
                  RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !(^|(.+;)*)id=valid(;.*|$)
                  RewriteRule /*$ http://www.yourdomain.com/ [L,R]

                  Or add this one:

                  RewriteEngine on
                  RewriteOptions inherit
                  RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://yourIPaddress/.*$ [NC]
                  RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.yoursite.com/.*$ [NC]
                  RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !(^|(.+;)*)id=valid(;.*|$)
                  RewriteRule /*$ http://www.yoursite.com [L,R]

                  Place the cookie script below between the <head> </head> HTML section of the index.html

                  &lt;SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">
                  // Calculate the expiration date</font>
                  var expires = new Date ();</font>
                  expires.setTime(expires.getTime() + 1
                  * 60 * 60 * 1000);
                  document.cookie = "id=valid; path=/" +
                  "; expires=" + expires.toGMTString();
                  &lt;/SCRIPT>

                      Took me a few days to make them stream from my linux boxes. I wrote a streaming server in Perl ... Stream them to an embedded object. The user cannot download them ..

                      i used this emb code :

                          There are much much easier shit to do than write streaming servers or having 5-20 lines of mod_rewrite, also, the videos will be cached in the player's memory/temp files and they can simply be renamed.

                              yes but i serve 600 meg movies, so i really dont want them to get downloaded if the user only watches for 5 minutes ..
