HOW TO PROTECT FLASH CONTENTS

[bendingcaesar]

Hey everyone,
Is it possible to prevent the flash book from being played anywhere off my site, and to prevent the flash movies from being decompiled and the contents (jpegs) grabbed. Can anyone help me with this?
I would be willing to pay a reasonable fee if someone can help me implement this
Thank you

Does anyone know if this is possible, I would like to be able to protect my content too and I know there are flash decompilers available.

Thanks

and the contents (jpegs) grabbed.

nothing can prevent against a screen copy!
you can use a ugly watermark, this is the "best" solution ... but not so nice for the pictures
I use strong jpg compression (itś also good for speed), the pictures are nice to see on the monitor but not realy good for printing above postcardformat.

the best solution is nothing to publish .... modern times.

Hummm... when I browse for flash software, I see protecting programs and un-protecting programs in the same category... so, I'm not really sure about protection...

Well, you can always revert to code obfuscation. In the end, Flash is a client side run software, so eventually the received data must be readable by the player, meaning it is also readable by anyone else.
The only way around that would be a deeper integration of such features in the Flash Player itself. Which is, afaik possible in combination with the Flash Media Server. But I'm not sure whether it's DRM options extend to more than just video.
