Trying to get my head around a bunch of modules and approaches. I'm wondering if private videos are supported for AWS S3 with the video module? I really need these videos to be kept private AND I want to use a S3 bucket.

Thanks for any help...

It seems as if the latest version of the Amazon S3 module (the -dev version) has support for this. The Video module uses whatever the S3 module gives it, it is not responsible (anymore) for generating S3 URLs.

I don't believe S3 module supports private files yet: [#1526848}

Please keep an eye on the Amazon S3 module to see if it adds support. Other storage methods, such as Rackspace Cloud Files, are also supported by the Video module and may offer better security. I have no experience with it myself, I just want to let you know that it is not a choice between just S3 or local files.
