Although there are several ways to make it inconvenient for newbies to
save your videos, there is absolutely positively no way to stop anyone
who knows a little bit about it. Unfortunately, the people you need to worry
about, the ones who routinely download a large portion of your stuff and
post it everywhere, are also the same people who know how to quickly
get past anything you might do to try to make it a little harder.
You, like most people who have been asking the same question for the
last twelve years, asked how to stop people from DOWNLOADING the
video. Of course their computer has to DOWNLOAD the video in order
to display it. What you mean is how to stop them from SAVING it to the
hard drive. Fact is, though, once you give them the video, you have no
way of knowing what they do with it - whether they watch it, save it,
or neither - maybe they've left the room. You can;t even KNOW if
they are saving it to a hard drive or other drive, must less CONTROL
what they do. In fact, on many home networks someone on a completely
different computer can easily save everything that another computer
views - they just save whatever video happens to come across the wire.
