Adding a logo in the aspect of a watermark to a video imported into the VOD/AOD space
Adding a logo in the aspect of a watermark to a video imported into the VOD/AOD space
It is possible to add an image that will appear on your video. You can either accomplish this using some rules that are specific to an import folder or from a video player's configuration.
If you use the player (online video player), the logo appears superimposed over the video. The logo is only added by the player at the time it is displayed. The advantage of this method is that the logo can be changed whenever you wish, and this allows you to have several players directed to the same video without any problem. This is the recommended method in order to have a solution that is easy to work with and is upgradeable.
The overlaying of the logo that is present in the folder section is, as its name indicates, an actual overlay in the video. This is far less flexible since once it has been overlaid, you cannot change it at all. It goes without saying that there will be no point in regretting overlaying a logo once it changes a few years later...
These two methods are different and do not work at the same time, and so if you activate them simultaneoulsy, you will have the logo of the player on top of the overlaid logo.
