The VideoLAN Forums

I've just read the manuals for the play and streaming uses of it and I still have a few questions.
I just simply want to password protect my stream.Can VLC do this in multisast or unicast.I use VLC 0.8.2.
Can someone explain this to me? I see nothing in the forums or the documentation.

Thanks!

Hello,

For MPEG-TS streams (I guess you use this if you do some multicast), you can set a CSA encryption on the streams:

* Use mux=ts{csa-ck=YOURKEY} on the streamer
* Use --ts-csa-ck YOURKEY ( or the appropriate option in the MPEG-TS demuxer preferences) on the clients

YOURKEY must be a 16 chars string

Thanks for answare!

Is there another way to protect my streams in multicast like DRM(Digital Right Managemant), CA(canditional access) or something else?

Much Thanks,
