Hi!

I'm trying to embed an MP4 into an InDesign file, then Publish Online. When doing this, a download button is available on the published URL. How can I prohibit viewers from downloading the MP4?

    The only way to prevent that is to not put it on the internet.

    It is what it is. There is no security that can’t be easily beat and anything you try is likely to ruin the experience for everyone else.
