We need to setup a LMS environment where we can play pre-recorded videos to students but we don´t want to allow them share the video urls to external users
out of our domain.

We plan to use the Edge Control features of Rackspace CDN for this purpose.
Could you recommend us any alternative?

Hi


We have developed a xblock to make streaming live & vod,  public and private using wowza streaming server. In the case of private video only the authenticate users can see the videos

Regards
Paco.

Hi Alejandro,

If you want to use TTL feature, here is example when it is actually not good idea.

If student started watching video. Then paused. Then go drink tea, eat, etc. Then he go back and press resume. But url is unavailable due to TTL.

Sincerely
