wingchun22 is on a distinguished road
Default

i have a small ffmpeg script that watermarks all my videos with the vhook command in shell

i have a batch script that once place in the flvideo directory can be simply run to process all files and watermark with either your text or image in ffmpeg

i have just run it on 4000 videos (took 3 days to complete) and watermarked all my flv files with my domain text in the top right hand corner


the only problem is that if you use ffmpeg vhook to watermark your videos it increases the file size

i have just doubled the space need for my flv files, 4000 flv files amounting to 100 gb have been turned into 4000 flv files amounting to 195 gb

using the vhoook command in ffmpeg with a image is even worse, text seems to be the better option, the only problem is doubling file sizes, some videos are ok, but when 100mb files turn into 200mb files there could be a few problems

maybe i need to mess around with the ffmpeg commands to get better results or try using mencoder to achive the same results
