Watermark on Video file

[yousaf931]

Hello,

I would like to ask that is it possible in php to put watermark automatically on a video file that is uploaded by the user on my site.

If possible than please quide me about it. and the code aswell.

The video file is of format .wvm, .avi . mpeg or any other format that usually common on the net

Regards.

I'm not one to say something is impossible, but I don't think PHP was meant to handle doing this on its own on the fly.

In theory, you could read the video and process each frame and then AND/OR/XOR or whatever your image into the video and then process the next frame. If done from a binary level, I'd predict PHP could do this. But you'd have to figure out how to persuade PHP to interpret each video format.

I would think you're best hope would be to find a 3rd party tool/application that could do this from a command line. Then you could have PHP launch the command line tool.

I think AstroTeg has the right idea: PHP was never made for video processing (or any sort of large-scale binary file manipulation, which is what you're asking for). Instead you could use it to call on other dedicated programs that can do the job.

Don't ask me for which programs to use, 'cos I don't know.

Well thanks for the kind words (I think :p). Just as a tip: I don't think you'll find many Open Source and/or free software to accomplish this. I've done it before using Sonic Foundry Stream Anywhere, which since being bought out by Sony, is no longer in production. I'm sure you can find something out there, but probably not for real cheap.

Well you know that you will find so many cracks on the net.. Now a days many things are get for nothing 😛
