Hi,

you can develop your own autorization plugin for windows media server
easily but you'll need a windows 2003 enterprise to run it :(

I am using Media Streaming Server on Windows 2003 Server and I am willing to run video website. Everything is going fine but the problem is with a little tweak anyone can come know mms:// path and download media files(.wmv) from my server. I treid alot but did get any perfect solution.

I request you but sorry to say don't suggest DRM as a solution because it's too much expensive solution. Is there any solution in ASP or ASP.NET or in PHP to programmatically protect the media files sothat users never able to download them and neither come to know mms path.

All suggestion are welcome.

Below is the code which I use to play video:
<html>
<head>
<body>
<script language="javascript">
<!--

function start1() {

// http://www.domain.com/a.asp It returns mms://domain/streming/video.wmv path of wmv file
document.player.URL = "http://www.domain.com/a.asp";;
document.player.controls.play();
}

// -->
</script>

</head>
<body onload="start1();">


<OBJECT ID="player" classid="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701"; standby="Loading Media Player..." type="application/x-oleobject">
<PARAM NAME="autoStart" VALUE="true">
<PARAM NAME="enableContextMenu" VALUE="false">
<PARAM NAME="uiMode" VALUE="full">
<PARAM NAME="ShowStatusBar" VALUE="false">
</OBJECT>
</body>
</html>
