Restrict to hostnames

I added nettv.bz and *.nettv.bz and I’m still able to take the link and paste it on the web browser bar and watch. If I’m restricting it to nettv.bz then why is it streaming everywhere else?

This was answered in a support ticket already, but for visibility to the community:

The player hostname restrictions only apply to the player configuration and protect it from being used on other hosts (which would impact view statistics for example). To protect a Wowza Video stream, you can use several stream security mechanisms.
