Is there any drawback servings video files through php downloader script on high load site?the question is why you want that? If you want to "log" how many times/when the video files were viewed, you can send the request to a PHP script that does the logging first and then send an HTTP redirection to the actual video file (but actually users could bypass logging if they head directly for the video URL).. If you manipulate the video file on-the-fly, I think you might need to consider caching with the above solution .. /ahmed
