I was watching http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIFNLDQU0VQ and the first thing I noticed was the small watermark in the upper left corner.

What (open source/free) software allows one to do that? I'd very much like to watermark my gameplay videos, since I do a lot of them.

Edit: Resolved!

Nevermind, I was totally blind. Thanks to those hints here:

What do you use to shrink/encode them? What format are the videos in, and what would the final source be? – Breakthrough Sep 11 at 22:43
VirtualDub, AVI container. H.264 for Video, Lame MP3 for Audio. – NoCanDo Sep 12 at 11:54

@Tom, very easy to solve: just delete you answer, ephilip was quicker. and you better be quick, before you get two more downvotes, or the next badge you earn won't be a nice one :) – Molly7244 Sep 11 at 22:57

What's this???? Somebody tried to HELP writing an answer, the phone rings, he puts the caller on hold, posts the message and two minutes later is insulted by a child hysterically pointing out HE WAS FIRST!!! and ... what? an admin? threatening him? Is this a forum to help or just show of and insult people?? TomWij, my sympathy goes with you. – Wolf Sep 11 at 23:09
true enough, Wolf. although we don't necessarily need duplicate answers, ephilip's reaction is uncalled for. – Molly7244 Sep 11 at 23:23
Geezz, we discovered this post around the same time, I compared some links to see what's best for the question, took time to type out my post and ended up four minutes later. But yeah, he was first! I didn't think of deleting my post, and will do so tomorrow. No need to downvote me because it looks like I copied his answer, don't either upvote me because I was not the first to provide an unique answer. Sorry for this mess... – TomWij Sep 12 at 8:36

You can apparently use Windows Movie Maker to add watermarks to videos.
See this article : Watermark in Windows Movie Maker, and make sure to read the comments as well.
I haven't done this myself, so can't vouch for the process, but there are many testimonies to it on google.
