Watermark

Watermark is a visible identifier overlaid on the video during playback, enabling you to assert copyright or identify violators of pirated content.

You have the capabilities to define the type and layout position of the watermark as per your preferences.

To enable watermark and customize its design for your content, set the associated API request body during creation:

VOD: POST /bv/cms/v1/vods
Livestream: POST /bv/cms/v1/lives

Configure the watermark request body with the following options:

Query Parameters	Required	Description
`enable`	Required	`true`
`type`	Required	Specify the type of the watermark: `WATERMARK_TYPE_IMAGE`: Utilize a customized image as watermark. `WATERMARK_TYPE_USER_ID`: Utilize the viewer's `customer_id` per each token's playback as watermark. When there are multiple viewers with different `customer_id`, the watermarks will be different for different viewers accordingly. For more comprehensive guide about the token and the `customer_id`, refer to this documentation.
`position`	Required	Specify the display position of the watermark: (1) `WATERMARK_POSITION_BOTTOM_RIGHT` (2) `WATERMARK_POSITION_BOTTOM_MIDDLE` (3) `WATERMARK_POSITION_BOTTOM_LEFT` (4) `WATERMARK_POSITION_CENTER_RIGHT` (5) `WATERMARK_POSITION_CENTER_LEFT` (6) `WATERMARK_POSITION_TOP_RIGHT` (7) `WATERMARK_POSITION_TOP_MIDDLE` (8) `WATERMARK_POSITION_TOP_LEFT` (9) `WATERMARK_POSITION_RANDOM`: The watermark will randomly shift to different positions on the player every 30 seconds. This provides variation and increases the difficulty of blocking or cropping the watermark.
`image`	Optional	Required if the `type` is set to `WATERMARK_TYPE_IMAGE`. Specify the image to use as the watermark with `library_id`. You can upload and obtain the ID for a image file using this API: `POST /bv/cms/v1/library/files:upload` Supported Formats: `png`, `jpg`, `jpeg`, `gif` File Size Limitation: `1 MB` Suggested Dimension: `270x270` pixels

Here's an example of the request body that sets the type of watermark as an image, which will display on the top-right corner of the player:

"watermark":{
  "enabled":true,
  "type":"WATERMARK_TYPE_IMAGE",
  "position":"WATERMARK_POSITION_TOP_RIGHT",
  "image":{
    "library_id":"your-library-id-here"
  }
}

Here's an example of the request body that sets the type of watermark as user ID with random display position on the player:

"watermark":{
  "enabled":true,
  "type":"WATERMARK_TYPE_USER_ID",
  "position":"WATERMARK_POSITION_RANDOM"
}

注意

Watermarks on a web player may not be fully functional on iOS devices when in full-screen mode due to the OS limitation.
