Hiding URL and signatures to videos

[Solved]

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › Troubleshooting › Hiding URL and signatures to videos

  • Samuel M. 5 years, 4 months ago

    Hello,

    I followed the steps in this guide, but still having an issue of my videos’ URLs and signatures being visible to people who inspect the page. https://foliovision.com/player/video-hosting/serving-private-cloudfront#cloudfront

    I’ve included a screenshot showing the URL and signature on Cloudfront. Did I do something incorrect when setting this up?

    Hello Samuel,

    As you can see in our How to Protect Your Videos from Being Downloaded guide, Cloudfront signed URLs prevents from usage of bare HTML. This helps mainly against hotlinking and several video downloading methods. But, yes the signatures will be visible in the page inspect. If you want to completely secure your videos against downloading you need to encrypt it with MediaConvert or ElasticTranscoder.

    Let us know if you have any other questions.

    Making the web work for you,
    Juraj
