    Hi Alec, thanks for reply.
    Actually I’m evaluating several tools for embedding media with S3 and I think that FV could be a good choice.
    At the future, my web site will offers the media via cloudfront, but today explore alternatives, so I’m confused about to pay 70€ for support to evaluating FV.

    I feel that the proccess could be easiest.
    1.- configure IAM user with read only permissions on bucket
    2.-put the keys inside of fv_flowplayer
    3.-show the video with expiration time.

    But when I do that, this does not occurs, a 403 forbidden is returned. Of course, if I make public to everyone the video FV works fine, but if I need do that, don’t need FV, do you?
    Another issue is that the url is not signed in the code, and not expiration time is added. I’m using 6.0.38 version.

    Regards.

    Hi guys, following the “serving private videos with amazon s3” (https://foliovision.com/player/secure-amazon-s3-guide), I think that is not correct all information about, because the 23 section says:

    If you are interested in the file protection, make sure only your account is present in list of permissions and it has all the access. Obtaining the access keys required for playback of private files s described in the Obtaining the Amazon AWS access credentials section of this document.
    

    Amazon S3 does not allow users in ACLs, and the user of the example was “MySite” and the user of the image was “foliovision”, so I think that this is the root account but no the true “MySite” user.

    So, how can I do that?

    I have tried to update bucket policy to read only for a created user for the bucket and children, and update access policy to read only for the user too, I have added the keys for the user to fvplayer also. But when I try to access to a video the 403 code is returned.
    Thanks
