How to add a watermark with ffmpeg after exporting video.

Hi All

I searched the forum and I thought you could use a thread which describes a very simple way to watermark your videos.

I'm on Windows so I will describe how to do it on my system.

  1. Find where ffmpeg.exe is located on your system through the Edit > Settings > External Tools dialogue in LRTimelapse, on my system it is 'C:\Program Files (x86)\LRTimelapse 4\ffmpeg64.exe' You're probably on a 64bit system so you can use either ffmpeg.exe or ffmpeg64.exe.
  2. Copy the ffmpeg exe files to a new location, very important, copy, don't move.
  3. Place your logo and source video in the same folder as ffmpeg64.exe
  4. I use the following script to add a logo to the bottom right corner of my 4K(UHD) video:
    Code:
    ffmpeg64 -i video.mp4 -i logo.png -filter_complex "overlay=3140:1660" video1.mp4
    where video.mp4 is the source name of your video and logo.png is your logo image.
  5. Modify this code to your needs and save it in a text file, in the same folder as before.
  6. Rename the file.txt to file.bat and run it, this will open a command line dialogue like in the attachment, you can see the progress at the bottom of the window.
That's it, you will now have a copy of your video with your water mark. In case it's not clear, the position of the logo is x-axis:y-axis, so across:down.

Here's an example of my LRT output with a water mark added afterwards: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_6I2oMsYHE
