To deter unauthorized or unwanted distribution of video recordings, it is possible to add a watermark to video playback. The watermark consists of the user login as a semi-transparent overlay repeated across the entire image. When enabled, it is not possible to view and/or export video without the watermark for any user except an Administrator or Owner.

To enable watermark on exported video

1.Open System Administration.

2.In the General tab, enable the "Display watermark with username over video" checkbox.

3.Click on the Watermark Preview button to adjust the opacity (0 – 100%) and the number of times the username is overlayed (1x1 array – 6x10 array) on the image.

4.Click OK to accept or Cancel.

Note that video still can be exported without a watermark via API or the Web Client, for example. However, the Audit Trail can be used to trace the recording event and the responsible user.
