Adding Watermark Section Parameters

The final step is to add some section parameters to your publication in order to control which watermark images are actually added to videos in various contexts. Escenic section parameters are inheritable, so if you want to use the same watermarks everywhere in your publication, then you can just set these parameters in your publication's root section. If you want different watermarks in a particular section, then you can override the global settings by redefining the parameters in that section.

You need to set two different parameters:

com.escenic.aws.watermark.content_ids

This parameter specifies which watermarks are to be added to videos. It has the following form:

com.escenic.aws.watermark.content_ids = watermark-image-id-list 

where watermark-image-id-list is a comma-separated list of content item IDs identifying the watermark images to be used. For example:

com.escenic.aws.watermark.content_ids=12345,23456

com.escenic.aws.watermark_id.content-id

One parameter like this must be added for each content item ID specified with com.escenic.aws.watermark.content_ids. Each parameter has the form:

com.escenic.aws.watermark_id.content-id=watermark-id

where:

• content-id is a watermark image content ID.

• watermark-id is an Elastic Transcoder watermark ID that effectively determines where the watermark will be placed on the video.

For example:

com.escenic.aws.watermark_id.12345=TopRight
com.escenic.aws.watermark_id.23456=BottomLeft

If you want to switch watermarking off in a section of your publication, you can do so by setting com.escenic.aws.watermark.content_ids to no value in that section. For example:

com.escenic.aws.watermark.content_ids =
