Fellow monks,
Basically, i'm tired of people stealing my flash! I make little videos or simple little single tune playing bits and everyone steals them! I've traced back a ton of myspace accounts using my flash and a load of other website users seem to be using them on their profiles and its bloody annoying. Short of changing the address its saved at every few days, I thought... if I could do this in perl then I could simply screen the IP's or referrer's I allowed.

So in essence, how do I change a normal flash file into a perl file which streams flash to work in this kinda situation: 

<object width="250" height="190" codebase="http://download.macromedia.
+com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" type="appli
+cation/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.myhost.co.uk/flash.pl?play
+=false" id="videocast">
<param value="http://www.myhost.co.uk/flash.pl" name="movie"></param>
<param name="quality" value="best"/>
</object>
