In my webshop I will have a collection of videos and registered users will be able to buy this videos, after they buy particular video they will be able to watch it.
Merchello should be able to handle the transaction however your situation is more complicated than that and is somewhat dependent on how you are delivering the video as you will want to prevent it from being shared I would have thought?
Further to my message about video delivery, you really need to use a method that prevents the videos being shared with people who have not paid for them. This is certainly outside of the scope of Merchello in my opinion.
Some years ago I worked on a project and used a service called Bits on the Run which gave us the ability to generate single-use links for video files/streams for this exact reason. It was a subscription based service and the links had to be restricted so that only authorised users could watch them. You can achieve this same thing via other services today or you could probably roll your own (although I personally wouldn't).
Hello guys. I have developed something similar recently in Umbraco. I tested with Merchello and it ended up not offering support for this kind of feature. I had to do hijacking controller to make this video payer control. I had to do my own e-commerce. Merchello does not link with the umbraco content node making this kind of control very difficult.
Registered users have access only to purchased videos

Hello Simon, thank you for your answer.
I am thinking about the idea to add a buyers id or guid to a purchased video if that is possesible or maybe there is better aproach.
I was hoping that merchello maybe have allredy something similar built-in.
