Help!! Any good anti hotlink script for movies?
 

Please advice ant good anti hotlink scripts for movie file.
But please don't introduce antihotlinking.com, this guy stole me $299 already.
Thanks

Any suggestion?

htaccess and mod_rewrite.

Other then that I can set u up with something custom using captcha probably, depending on exactly what you are doing and how much you are willing to spend.

How did he rip you off?, I use his script on all my machines and have never had a problem getting it installed

htaccess cannot avoid hotlink of movie file

Paid them $299 couple days ago ,
only received an email from their ccp shareit.com
No email from them,
Contacted them through icq day by day and no reply at all
I have requested a charge back already.
What a cheater!!

Your best bet is doing a passthrough auth; the easiest to implement is a wildcard subdomain which uses a hash which is tested for auth.

Hey, that's kind of how StrongBox works.

If you don't want to require login, use mod_rewrite to test filetype, referrer, and link all movies through a passthrough script. It's trivial to use $_SESSION in PHP and fpassthru.

Thanks for your reply.
Actually I am a programing idiot, All I want is to buy a anti hotlink scripts for mpeg and wmv.
Thanks again!!:thumbsup:thumbsup

I just set a cookie on a page with video on it, and refuse access to the directory with videos by htaccess (unless it finds the cookie) - simple works :)

Works fine for ***...

As mentioned above, a simple .htaccess which checks the referer won't
work reliably because some video players, most notably Windows Media Player,
won't send a referer header. Cookies also won't work reliably because many
surfers have cookies turned off. There go the really simple approaches.

If your videos are in a members' area, protected the members' area with
Strongbox will also take care of hotlinking. If the are in a public area where
people do not have to log in, a time dependent hash is probably the way to go.
We could set up soemthing liek that for you.
