Does anyone have some tips or solutions to combating this kind of theft in your members area? My updates instantly lose value, and I lose money, when they are uploaded WITHIN HOURS to a tube and file locker site.

Any tips and advice are appreciated
Set to streaming-only and encrypt the video file url. Then, overlay unique user id in random spots in video using an overlay above the video player. Set in random coordinates. Make it so they would only notice it if they payed attention to every second of video. If they resort to screen recording and miss it, you got them. Throw the book at them.

You can also (with a bit of programming) stamp the video file properties with unique member ids so if the pirate is able to decrypt the video file url and upload to torrents, you can trace back to the member.

Of course, a very very clever thief will easily bypass all this shit
