Title: How do I remove a video watermark ?
Post by: Dare978Devil on April 10, 2013, 08:16:32 am

I downloaded a concert video from Youtube.  It was stored in WebM format which plays perfectly on MC.  However, the person who upped the footage watermarked it with a name he no doubt thought was cool, but is very annoying.  Here is the link in case you are curious : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yeu41__5mRA

Is there any way to remove it?  Or just block it out?  Just curious, I can hardly leave this video playing with 4 kids in the house, I would get in trouble.

Thanks,
DD.

You could zoom in or shift a little so the edges get cropped.  The zoom / shift settings are saved between playbacks.

Or you could try some electrical tape ;)

You could try adding a watermark of your own and overlay it on top of the offending text.

There are freeware editors out on the net that you could employ. You'll have to work out what works for you through trial and error. Sorry, I've not been down this path before so can't speak from experience.

This should at least save you some duct tape and avoid the adhesive residue on your screen.

Yep.  The only way is to edit the video itself (or zoom to crop it).
