The new wave of media including website presenters being added to websites create a new challenge for webmasters. You really need to control these using cookies or IP address, you don't want the website presenter appearing every time a client hits your site. I would recommend using I.P to exclude the presenter to visitors that have already watched this. People tend to clear there cookies so use I.P exclude.
