Hi, guys
I want to encrypt MKV file with H264 codec content, is there any way to implement it?
Does MKV format has the function to implement this?

7z, RAR and Zip all have forms of protection that's similar to encryption with password protection ... RAR is unbreakable (assuming a long enough password), not sure about the other two ...

I think 7z supports AES-256 and ZIP now does too (in addition to old ZipCrypt). RAR uses AES-128 for encryption, AFAIK.

Another method: Just put your file(s) into an TrueCrypt container. The advantage is that you can "mount" TrueCrypt containers as a virtual drive, i.e. files don't have to be "extracted" for access.

Please explain: What exactly are you trying to achieve and for what purpose? :confused:

I just want to make sure that the video can only be played by a special player I released, for the video content confidential reason.
