How do I prevent downloads of my videos?

Hello,

I have videos in my products media gallery, and it displays the option to Download the videos. How do I prevent this?

Thank you.

Never mind. I just added controlslist: 'nodownload' to the video tag.

You will want to look for a file like product-thumbnail.liquid and search for "echo media | media_tag".

I don't have the Ella Theme so I can't know for sure where the developer put this code, but depending on how many files there are, you can ctrl+f "echo media | media_tag" in all the files until you find it.

Once you find it, you'll want to make sure that "when 'video' echo media | media_tag" looks something like this: when 'video'
echo media | media_tag: image_size: '2048x', autoplay: true, loop: loop, controls: true, controlslist: 'nodownload', preload: 'none', muted: false

after doing this also disable right clicks on the website to stop further video and photo thefts.

 Go to theme.liquid file, search </head> and above it paste this code.

<script> /* don't expect this to work on older ie */ window.oncontextmenu = function () { return false; } </script>

and click save. 

That's it.
