R: [gst-devel] Create a secure level

[Domenico Pontari]

In many cases streaming players deny you to save the clip on your PC. But if you use a video recorder (for example Camtasia) you can record the clip anyway. Is it possibile avoid this copy? Is it possible apply an access policy for video memory? You need to change the kernel? If Gstreamer became a new framework for all Linux players, it'll be possible for it to manage with these access policies between all players based on it.
Thanks,
Domenico

Hi,

> Do you think is possibile creating a secure level with GStreamer, so that when an apllication use a pipeline another cannot record from them? This should be an useful way to protect video from local recording.

I'm not sure what you're asking, can you be more specific ? A pipeline
in an application is not easily accessible from another application.
