    Hi Team, I wouldn't let users to share the video links and to download them. I read that we have to buy WPLMS S3 to upload Videos in Amazon S3. Do we also have to buy Amazon S3 Hosting?

    Yes you would need to have amazon s3 account for this .

    Hi, If you set the duration to 0, then you won't be able to access it at all. You should set the duration in which the file would be loaded and this will depend on the network speed.

    Hi! If I set the expiry time to 1 minute! 1- Does this mean that someone with the source link can access it from other place for one minute! 2- Can he download or view the file during this time, or it will work only inside the course for logged in user? 3- Can the logged in user download the video file too? Would you kindly explain this a little bit, because I'm a bit confused about this thing! Regards,

    Thank you Alex! I was afraid from the answer "Yes"! is there is anyway to prevent downloading ? can I set the time for less than one minute? Regards,

    Well s3 works in this way :

    It limits the time to load that resource on user's machine .
    It loads the resource from s3 for the given duration after it stops loading the resource .So anybody who wants to download the video from the same link in the dom will not be able to do so after a certain duration .
    But yes user can find the resource link afterall and to hide that we would need a special player that does not shows the resource link in dom like that of Jw player . Moreover To load video it has to be available to the browser for pre loading .

    Even professional video hosting providers like vimeo cannot garauntee full protection .
