Now live: A fully responsive profile. The question being alluded to is how to save that content in the browser. To view content, client browsers download from content servers and make it available locally.
One solution becoming popular is to save ephemeral content in browser only, and for a limited time, in a way that cannot be saved directly. The short expiry of content makes persistent storage almost impossible to ordinary users since new content is displayed before user can attempt to save expired content. Just in case you need that too, here's what you put in the AngularJS controller in question:. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group.

Are there more complete solutions that prevent the client from accessing a file path directly? Braiam 4, 11 11 gold badges 50 50 silver badges 73 73 bronze badges. I up-voted this question because it only absolutely asks for how to "disable the right-click" for an HTML5 video.
I am not sure if it is similar to right-click disabling for normal images or if there are other overlay tricks, etc. Even if you could somehow block that, they can view-source to find the URL of the file. Even if you could obscure that a bit, they can rip it from the cache. Even if you could complicate that e. The fact is, if you send it to a user, they can save it.
No way around that. The question you need to ask is why you need to stop it so badly. Is it really even that necessary? Is it worth the effort and user-unfriendly—ness?

The token is generated upon page generation, and saved to the db. By the time your page has loaded, the db has the token, the page has the token. If the token isn't there as a result of second access , then don't stream the file. Show 12 more comments. Clayton Graul Clayton Graul 1, 1 1 gold badge 9 9 silver badges 7 7 bronze badges.
That is fantastic! It does a great job from preventing ordinary people from downloading the video! This does not help however if JavaScript is disabled in the browser. Just inspect the element in Firebug, see the src attribute, and open that in another tab or use wget to download it! I think the main aim of this is to avoid "normal" users to download the video.
This is a good solution to solve this situation. Show 5 more comments. Yes, you can do this in three steps: Place the files you want to protect in a subdirectory of the directory where your code is running.

If you club this with a one-time code on the file, you're good to go! It seems still IDM can download it! PersianMan Correct - I encourage you to read the first answers — Tzshand. If you disable the javascript from browser, then this trick won't work, since then right click gets enabled. To avoid that too, you should fetch and load the video element dynamically using jquery.

It's simple: it's how it works. That is not an answer to either of the questions. People could record their entire screen and audio and fool all workarounds, that is why they can only be slowed down. Everytime I searched about techniques to make it harder for my users to download or copy our copyrighted contents which is expensive to make, sold at expensive price and is exclusive content some people post "you can't".
