Hello, I'd like to prevent a video being downloaded by people completing my survey. The video is housed in my files library. The download option seems to appear only in Chrome. Thank you-

The video tag in the video you posted looks like this: ``` <video controls="true" preload="auto" width="276" height="480"> ``` It should look like this: ``` <video controls="true" preload="auto" width="276" height="480" controlsList="nodownload"> ```

Add the attribute `controlsList="nodownload"` to your `<video>` tag.

I tired placing the attribute in various places, but I think another command must be overriding it. Any additional help would be appreciated. This is one version that didn't work: !

I tried the changes, but the menu for downloading still appears on the Chrome video control bar. In Firefox, right clicking will allow the save as option.
