Set a Password for a Public Video
Use the button on the form to set a password for a video.
When a video upload is set to access, anyone may view it if it has also been embedded on a 3rd party Website and has been set to status. For additional security, you may also implement a shared password on the video.
Caution: If a video requiring a password is added to a playlist, it will not play. The user will receive a messasge stating,”The resource you have requested cannot be accessed”. The user will then be redirected back to the login page. |
