The short answer is: **No.**
Longer answer: It is impossible to protect anything from downloading unless you don't want anyone to watch it. Remember: if they can see it, they can record it. | Sure, just don't serve them up. By definition, for someone to view an online video, they have to download it. There's absolutely no way around it, short of forcing them to use a remote desktop type viewer. Once the bytes leave your server, you have absolutely zero control over what happens to them. |
