configuring .htaccess for embedded movies - GoFuckYourself.com

playa · 08-27-2002, 12:06 AM

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.

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

<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();
</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.
