NVEnc Watermark to Video

[ysnist]

Is there any way to add a picture to the video I convertion like in ffmpeg?

Unfortunately there is no way to add watermarks in NVEnc.

Actually, it would be great if this happens. We can get rid of FFMPeg dependency completely. I ask you to please add it in new updates
You're a great developer, I think you can do it.

I'm not actually used to add watermarks by ffmpeg, am I correct that overlay filter is used?

Would you please share the example of command line to add watermarks you use in ffmpeg to clarify?

[ysnist]

I apologize for the late response due to the Christmas holidays. In the meantime I wish you a good new year.

It is possible to add an image to a video as in the following line of code, this or a similar feature would be really cool and I could use it without the need for third party software

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -i logo.png -filter_complex "overlay=(main_w-overlay_w)/2:(main_h-overlay_h)/2" -codec:a copy output.mp4

Happy new year to you, too!

Thank you for sharing the usage of overlay filter. I was able to get a picture of what we need.

I think I'll add a similar simple filter which can have similar result, as ffmpeg overlay has very flexible functionality, but as it'll be complicated to implement, I'll rather start from a simple one, and add features later if needed.

I'm incredibly glad to hear that. Yes, it can be a simple image add feature. I'm looking forward to the new version

NVEnc 7.09 adds --vpp-overlay which will overlay image on top ob base video.

Example

--vpp-overlay file="target.png",pos=1620x780,size=300x300

I'll close this issue now, as the requested feature has be added and improved in recent updates.

I need please to add a timing option like ffmpeg does. I can't use an image for the whole video length. I need an option to make it for the first seconds of the video, for example. Is this possible to add? thanks in advance.
