IMDB Video streaming

[gl3nnym]

Hi All

 

I have been asked to block the streaming video content on IMDB but keep the site unblocked. Does anybody know if the videos are streamed from a particular location?

 

The reason being is because there seems to be a trend with certain lessons there will be 60 odd pupils streaming HD video. Yeah, not exactly brilliant for the network!

 

Thank you

I think it might be something like media-imdb.com... if your web filter can't tell you then try either wireshark/firebug/fiddler on the client PC or inspect the HTML.
