vb.org Archive - View Single Post - BB Code - Need help restricting to specific usergroups

Peter Walker · #10 08-21-2013, 12:28 PM

I already use flowplayer video code to show this. The reason being I need to be able to support subtitles and splash pages and most other video programs do not support this. I also host the video files on my own server, to give me better control.

The problem with YouTube is that once people see the youtube link, they can potentially just give the address to others for free and that is against the whole point of restricting access to non-paying members. Otherwise, Youtube would be suitable as that does support subtitles, etc.

The interim solution I am working on is to put the videos into a subforum that only premium members can see. The links to this forum being in the normal premium directory which others can at least view. It is clumsy, so I hope you guys can come up with a better solution.

I had a brief look at the AME system, but from what I saw the video component would not support subtitles.

Thanks to all those trying to help.

Regards

Peter
