[games_access] from RobertFlorio speech thank you. Recovery.

Hi,

*quote*
Only thing though I don't want anyone to be able to download and keep it for 
themselves on our forum web site do that or YouTube do that or how else can 
I save it so that that feature is locked out on my own web site?
*quote end*

You can't. There is no way to publish a movie on the internet without people 
being able to rip it. Most regular embedded movies (.wmv) can be downloaded 
by looking up the source URL in the source code of the website. If you put 
it on YouTube or Google Video (or similar services), people can still 
download it using services provided by websites such as KeepVid.com. And 
even if you take extra measures such as using movie links in dummy movies, 
Flash/Shockwave or other technology, than users can simply record your movie 
with capture software, such as Auto Screen Recorder: 
http://www.wisdom-soft.com/products/autoscreenrecorder_free.htm . Whatever 
is visible on screen and what is heard over the speakers can be ripped, no 
exceptions.

If you're worried about copyright and stuff, simply add the information to 
the movie in the form of a title or credits. You could also use burned 
captions. If you want to have a big audience for your video, I really 
suggest putting it on YouTube and Google Video. Today I read that YouTube 
currently has about 100.000.000 downloads PER DAY. In YouTube, you can set 
your broadcast options to Public, meaning that everyone can see your movie, 
or "Private", meaning that the movie is only viewable by you and those you 
choose.

Hope this helps.

Greets,

Richard
