I wanna add support of watermarking on my FLV videos. Previously I used to do that using FFMPEG's vhook option but due to some problems I had to upgrade it to the latest svn revision. This version of FFMPEG doesn't have vhook support anymore.

I have tried mencoder with bmovl but mencoder seems to be pretty difficult to work with.

Is there any other feasible option of watermarking FLV videos?

VLC can watermark videos using the Effects and Filters > Video Effects > Vout/Overlay > Add text, and it can read FLV files. I've, personally, had varying success with encoding using VLC (or any program for that matter).

i think vlc and mplayer and ffmpeg generally do good jobs. what problems are you having with mplayer/mencoder?

you could add the watermark on each frame using imagemagick or scripted gimp, but it will be very slow.
