Please make the video file links secure so that no one can download the videos. People are downloading our videos and using in their websites. If it's possible like Wistia does, so that no one can download it through any plugin or source code.

Thanks for sharing this.
The referral restrictions can't be applied on a URL which works in the tab. The referral restrictions works when the media/URL is used on a different page/url/app and the sent referrer is verified by Gumlet.
For MP4, we will review this internally.

Aditya Patadia: You mentioned it's planned for August, still no update its already September. Disappointed.

Wistia vidoes are not like they are not downloadable. It's very easy to download those videos as well. If you can give a good example, it can help us prioritise.
Only way to protect videos from downloading is through string DRM protection and but even that is not 100% foolproof.

Aditya Patadia: I don't have much technical knowledge about those terms, but I heard that there are services who provide secured video upload storage, like Bunny CDN now providing also. I attached the images you can refer to understand which features I'm asking for.
A good example can be Vooplayer.com, who is giving features like Advanced HLS Encryption,
Domain Restrictions, etc.
Basically what I wanted - I want to keep my video files uploaded on gumlet only and will add those to my website such a way when someone right clicks on the videos they don't get any copy url option, so that they can't use the same url to display my videos on their website and they can not download also using plugins or apps like IDM.
I use IDM but in some sites I noticed even IDM can't download videos. Maybe like Skillshare or Coursera. Not asking for some more advance level of security, just some basic security so that I can be stress free by knowing that anyone can't download or steal my content. Not worried about hackers, I know they can do anything!

Rajat Subhra: Understood. We are already planning security features. Meanwhile, if you use Gumlet, they will not be able to download it by simply right clicking.
