Re: Media View and Caching

2009-06-16 Thread Galdan

Hi together,

thank you for the responses.

Link-Protection is not the only reason why i use them.

I also use Media Views for counting the hits on the images.

I changed the application in the way that thumbnails dont get loaded
by mediaview and only the high-res pictures (which should get counted
and protected) are done by it.

Thank you!

bye
Tom

Just to add to Matt''s comment: look into using mod_rewrite to prevent
hotlinking. Using MediaView for this is overkill.

Re: Media View and Caching

I don't think caching will help you here, since the image is a static
file.  The big difference is that in the case where you just link to
the image your web server can return it directly.  When you go through
the MediaView your webserver needs to use PHP which will always be
slower, regardless of the framework.

If you're just trying to prevent link stealing you should look into
handling this directly with your web server.
