In 0.8.51+ you can try new ngx_http_secure_link_module functionality:

/dir/MD5_HASH/TIMESTAMP/path/to/file.mp4

location /dir/ {
location ~ ^/dir/(?<HASH>[\w\-=]+)/(?<TIME>\d+)(?<FILE>/.+)$ {

secure_link $HASH,$TIME;
secure_link_md5 $FILE.PaSsWoRd;

if ($secure_link = "") { # no valid
return 403;
}

if ($secure_link == 0) { # expired
return 410;
}

alias /path/to$file;
}

return 404;

error_page 403 /forbidden.html;
error_page 404 /not_found.html;
error_page 410 =403 /link_expired.html;
}
