How does streaming media category work?

Reply

The filter provides Streaming Media category will block sites by URL. However, it is possible that some sites will contain streaming media embedded within a web page like youtube.com. For these purposes the filter provides the ability to block access to streaming media files using pattern recognition as well.

 Flash Video - This pattern will identify flash video when accessed using IE.

Windows Media - Will identify media using the Windows Media format.

QuickTime Video - Will identify media using Apple's QuickTime format.

Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) - Will identify media served using the Real Time Streaming Protocol.
