What is the best way to make it harder for the user to download videos from my website?. I know it is impossible to prevent it at all. But I just want to make it more difficult than just secondary click, save as. I'm rendering as html5 video tag. I'm using to remove download button from controls. But still can save the video using secondary click and save video as. There is an effective way to make it a little bit difficult to the user from downloading videos from my website?.

  • Even though there is no way to just simply block the save as option. I did find this: [Custom right-click menu](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4495626/making-custom-right-click-context-menus-for-my-web-app/20471268#20471268) This will allow you to sort of disable the save as function. – Granny Dec 05 '17 at 14:48

This question where answered before but I post here the solution that I got from Clayton Graul here :)

This is a simple solution for those wishing to simply remove the right-click "save" option from the html5 videos

$(document).ready(function(){
   $('#videoElementID').bind('contextmenu',function() { return false; });
});
