Introduction

By adding a watermark to videos can help stop your videos from unauthorized use and copying. You can select the end-users Email Address, IP Address, Phone Number, and Date as the watermark. When the end-users play your video, this information will be displayed on the video player. The watermark moves around the screen randomly. So, it is difficult to remove it or blur it. Also, you can adjust the opacity of the watermark on the player so that your end-users can enjoy the video without getting annoyed. You can change the position of the watermark as well. Make it static or dynamic by selecting the options. If you want to see how the watermark appears on the player, then you can test it in our demo player without taking a free trial.
