Possible to make video viewing "members only"?

I need to embed the video in the body of the post/blog and then only let paying members see the video, everyone else would get a "join now" type link or button. I could use either buddypress or livesite to run the membership levels.

Is this possible?

Hello Joe,

this can be done with a bit of custom programming and PHP knowledge.

The shortcode for FV Wordpress Flowplayer is registered like this in fv-wordpress-flowplayer/controller/shortcodes.php:

add_shortcode('flowplayer','flowplayer_content_handle');

So you could use remove_shortcode() function (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/remove_shortcode) to block our player from initializing based on user membership level.

Thanks,
Martin
