Stream protection


Greetings,

I have my streams organised in playlists within the player. And i use the code below to call each of them. Basically a user clicks on the button, the function than plays the stream in the player div.
I need to protect my streams so that even if someone copies and pastes the url, from "view page source" it wont play else where, or it will have max 20 min life and then became useless.
Please find below the code in my webpage:

"<div class="player_content">[membership level="1,2,3"]
<div id="player">[jwplayer player="4" playlistid="1140"]</div>
[/membership]

<button class="stream_btt" onclick="jwplayer().playlistItem(2);"><img alt="" src="img.png" /></button>
</div>
</div>"

I have been searching for quite some time, but the sniped codes i find, i don't know where to use them!
here is a link that i've been seeing lately:http://developer.longtailvideo.com/botr/system-api/content_signing.html (especially the USING SIGNING part)

Can anyone be so kind to help me find What and Where do i do changes?!

Very grateful!
Thank you

Are your videos hosted on JW Platform? If not, does your hosting provider support expiring URLs?

hi,
thanks for replying!
No my streams are not hosted on JW platform, but my hosting provider does support expiring URLs..

My understanding of the process is that you have to request the expiring URL from your streaming server and then insert the link into our player setup all within the same web page code. This would probably best be done on the web server via Python or PHP.
