I want to add custom HTTP header in the request which FV Player makes to get the video in the HTML5 player. Is there any way? I want to provide some security check to prevent my videos to be downloaded.
If its a simple HTTP request, anyone will be able to access it via the link. How can I differentiate between normal requests and FV request to the video file?

Hello anshbhawnani,
this is unfortunately not possible. It might be if you use Media Source Extensions, in which case you can just use HLS streams and play them with HLS.js which lets you do this.
However you are out of luck on iPhones, as that one doesn’t support MSE.
Thanks,

So if I use hls streams in my video player, it won’t work on iPhones? So what’s the workaround for that?
How can I get same features of hls even on iPhones?
Hello anshbhawnani,
you can either use the HLS encryption, as provided by FV Player Pro, or figure out how to use Apple FairPlay together with it.
We are also preparing a Coconut.co integration with FV Player which will make posting encrypted videos easy, unlike the complex AWS workflows which we support in FV Player Pro.
Thanks,
Martin
