How to hide the flv link on youtube clone clipshare

December 8th, 2011
If you have been using ClipShare you must be thinking this is a great video script, but there is one little problem that should have been found by those security freaks. I have noticed if you look at the sourcecode and find the flash file it would look like this.
Example:
http://videos.site.com/player/vConfig.php?vkey=75530d9583c34fd356ef
If you are to put that into the web browser and hit enter it will pull up a page with xml code that gives the name of the video, video url and everything. If you are running a video site you do not want this, because then the smart techy guys will start downloading your video files. With a little tweaking to a few files and a couple extra files added, you can secure the xml code so it cannot be seen.
They will only get a 404 error when they try to view the url above. If you need info on how to do this please email.

Wowza Hosting

December 2nd, 2011

This week Hosting Marketers is going to start offering wowza hosting as an addon to the current hosting packages, with a extra monthly fee of $15 the customer has access to wowza media server, for video streaming, video on demand and live broadcast.

The advantage of wowza to red5 which Hosting Marketers has been offering since 2005 is the possibility to broadcast to apple devices, iphones and ipads. Red5 although our primary choice as unfortunately  yet to implement this.

On our server red5 will be streamed through port 5080 and 1935 and wowza will be on port 1936.

So on a rtmp for wowza the port 1936 must be entered, example below:

rtmp://wowza-server-IP:1936/vod/mp4:sample.mp4

Wowza can also be used on iphones and most mobile devices, in this case the url should be:

http://[wowza-address]:1936/vod/mp4:sample.mp4/playlist.m3u8
Notice that it is not a rtmp but a http!

Any question please contact us at:

Red5 security or hiding the rtmp

September 4th, 2011

For each customer we supply on request a rtmp, this rtmp is customized with a random number so that you are the only one who is going to use it, but if you leave your player code visible on the source code of the web page people can steal your rtmp and use it, stealing your resources and bandwidth. Below there are instructions on how to hide and secure your rtmp.

1- Lets create your player first, using the rtmp given to you, go to http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/

2- Download swfobject_generator_1_2_html.zip   or you can download it here.

3- Unzip it and run the index.html file from your desktop.

4- Fill the swfobject path as:

http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js

On the swf file use the adobe strobe, which is a very good player:

http://fpdownload.adobe.com/strobe/FlashMediaPlayback.swf

Adjust your player dimensions. Now enter your rtmp and if it is for live broadcast add the stream name to the rtmp.

5- Select dynamic method of embedding and press generate.

6- Copy the code within the set of script tags, where you see the embed function flashvars and then go to
