EMBED YOUR VIDEOS
A popular way to get your videos out there is to embed them on websites. There are a couple of ways to embed videos using SHOW. One way to do it is to place it on the webpage where your viewers can play it amongst the content. This is called Inline Embedding.
Another way to embed your videos is by Popover Embedding where the videos can be played in a popover window that pops up when a link or icon is clicked.

SHARING PRIVATELY
The SHOW app has provided the option to share your videos privately. You can do it in two ways:

2. IP Filtering
We have also provided a feature where you can share your videos to a specific IP address range. This feature is usually used for testing your videos. All you need to do is to enter the IP addresses in the IP Filtering feature in the 'Security' page of your 'Settings' panel, as shown below,
