I am working on jwplayer video and I need to prevent the video from download.When i double click on mobile chrome browser while video is playing it gives me the download option.I have study so many articles and blogs posts about this but still could not find any solution.

Although the JW Player does not offer a clip download option, you can still download streaming Flash video from the player with the aid of an external application. So here are the working methods to Download JW Player videos.

I don't want to use HLS stream option. Is there any parameter jwplayer use that recognize the authenticated users and play video only for them? or is there any other way to do it.?

If you are worried about the video being copied by authorised users then ultimately there is no way to stop the user downloading it - the video has to get to the device/browser for it to play and it is not hard to get around any URL obfuscating etc.

The usual approach to avoid copying is to encrypt the video and use some secure way to send the key to decrypt it.

This is essentially what DRM systems do.

The stronger DRM implementations generally also make sure that the end user or application never is able to . This is done by having the encrypted video and the key do their work within a 'secure media path' in the device, that applications and even the OS have no access to.

There is a way that works for me. In an addition I removed -a vod option because it caused an error.

Real player has a browser plugin that does that, (works well only in IE)Also IDM (internet download manager) does the same (again IE only) I've disable both plugins on chrome after having problems with it.http://www.internetdownloadmanager.com/

Real Player is free IDM is not (other than the cracked versions on torrent ;) )

How To Download From Jw Stream

IDM allows to select what video stream to download (if you change resolution on youtube, you'll see 2 files for download, 1 for each resolution)
