Hide stream source URL

I notice on many streaming websites, it is very difficult to find stream URL. It doesn't even show in network console on browser (usually you see the chunklists/.ts files etc).
(Maybe some sites still use RTMP streams, and I have heard that you can serve RTMP via PHP.)

I dont want my servers being probed/DDOS etc.

Any idea how we can hide stream URL, or maybe future feature request, thank you

You're right, they use RTMP as input, probably with obfuscated streams URLs as well.
If you want to use HLS then you should take a look at our hotlink protection featere set (http://blog.wmspanel.com/2013/11/nimble-streamer-protect-hotlinking-domain-lock.html) with web scraping protection: http://blog.wmspanel.com/2015/07/protecting-media-links-from-web-scraping.html
