Why do you need the count? If they have viewed the video then a row
will be found so just:
SELECT id from views_date WHERE id_count = $videoid AND ip = '$ip'
LIMIT 1;
If it returns anything then they have viewed it. (Dunno why the video
id column should be named id_count, most strange)
Add an INDEX on id_count, ip and you're laughing.
