Watermark Master 2.1.2 is a multifunctional movie editor primarily intended for conversion of movie and pic files with adding any kinds of watermarks to them. Clear interface and the presence of Wizard generate the program easy-to-operate even for people who do not possess any special knowledge.
Watermark Master possesses all necessary functions for editing of movies and images: a wide set of filters (including Deinterlace), 6 resampling algorithms, color adjustment characteristic, capability to flip, rotate, sharpen or soften pic, capability to set timelines and a lot of others. It also includes Grabber function (creation of thumbnails and pic galleries of movie files) and capability to process files as they are added to directory (so-called Watch Directory function).
Watermark Master enables creation of all imaginable kinds of watermarks: content, movie, vivacious GIF, pic, rectangle, blur field, creeping line and digital audio. Display time can be assigned for any kind of watermark. In the Preview field all watermarks can be displayed either taking or without taking their display time into account.
Watermark Master 2.1.2 is optimized for batch processing (processing a great number of files per one pass). A directory with files can be added as source file. Files in the directory can be processed by mask here; subfolders recursive processing can be activated in case of need. Pliable mechanism of construction of the output file name enables to preserve the original hierarchy of directories regardless of its complexity.
Watermark Master 2.1.2 is intended above all for creation of movie and pic galleries with adding to every frame some details about its author. Also it can be recommended to be used for batch conversion of movie files from one format to another and ripping DVDs. Besides Watermark Master may be beneficial for creation of multiple montage effects.
Creation of Watermarks.
Watermark Master 2.1.2 allows to produce movies with adding to them watermarks of the following kinds:
- Content - represents a easy content watermark. Broad range of dynamic variables is accessible for this kind. Font, font size, font color and some other properties can be modified. Stroke effect can be applied to increase content readability.
- Pic - is based on a graphic file. A number of properties can be modified for this kind of watermark: size, transparent color, rotation angle, etc.
- Blur Field - is rectangle or elliptic blur field with adjustable size, blur strength and transparency. It enables to partly hide the unwanted elements of movie or image; also it can be perfectly used as a background for another watermark.
- Rectangle - is rectangle field filled with specified color. It can be used as a background for another watermark.
- Movie - is based on a movie file. It is a kind of dynamic watermarks that represents a movie file put over the processed one. Sound stream of the put file also can be included in case of need. Transparency
, repetition and a few more properties can be modified.
- Vivacious GIF - is based on an vivacious GIF file. It is another kind of dynamic watermarks that represents an vivacious GIF file put over the processed movie file.
- Creeping Line - represents a content watermark sliding along the frame in the predetermined direction during playback of the processed movie file. Slide speed, delay in appearance and a few more properties can be modified.
- Sound - represents an digital audio file replacing digital audio stream of the processed media file. Volume, repetition and a few more properties can be modified.
Display time can be assigned for any kind of watermark. In the Preview field all watermarks can be displayed either taking or without taking their display time into account.
Supported Formats.
Watermark Master supports all basic formats of movie, digital audio and pic files. Besides the solution can handle DVDs as well as VOB and IFO files. It enables to select the necessary chapters of DVD, join them when processing or process them separately, etc. Full list of supported formats is represented below:
- AVI (*.avi) (DivX, XVid and etc),
- Mpeg (*.mpg, *.mpeg) (VCD, SVCD),
- DVD (*.vob, *.ifo),
- WMV (*.wmv, *.wma, *.asf),
- QuickTime (*.mov, *.move, *.qt),
- Mpeg 4 (*.mp4) (decoding only),
- RealMedia (*.rm),
- Flash Movie (*.flv) and SWF (*.swf),
- DV (decoding only),
- Pic formats - GIF, PNG, BMP, TIFF,
- Vivacious GIF
Hidden Encoding.
Watermark Master 2.1.2 enables processing files without opening the main solution and showing GUI. For that one can set parameters of processing for some directory via Windows Explorer and afterwards just add (upload) the necessary files to the directory - Watermark Master will singly process them as they are added. This functionality can be used for encoding files on server via net interface, and so it may be eminently helpful to webmasters.
Video Editing.
Watermark Master includes wide set of filters (including Deinterlace) for editing movie and pics files, 6 resampling algorithms, color adjustment characteristic, capability to flip, rotate, sharpen or soften pic and a lot of others.
The solution enables to define sections of a media file that should be added to the output file or, on the contrary, removed. When processing a great number of files, the sections can be defined the same for all source files or individually for each of them. The number of sections is not limited. The output file(s) can be previewed before encoding.
Crop characteristic can be applied in order to process alone the selected field of the source file frame and cut off the rest of it (can be used, for example, for trimming black stripes along the edges of movies and images). When processing a great number of files, Crop can be set in the same path for all source files or individually for each of them.
Montage Characteristic
Watermark Master includes the Montage characteristic that allows to add movie scenes, add pics as scenes, replace digital audio stream of the processed file with another one, etc. By means of this characteristic one can produce movie files of any complexity. Besides it enables to process more than one file at once according to the same montage scheme: say, if you have a hundred files and want to add some movie scene to the beginning of each of them, you’ll have to spend just a few clicks for that!
Batch Processing
Watermark Master 2.1.2 is optimized for batch processing (processing a great number of files per one pass). A directory with files can be added as source file. Files in the directory can be processed by mask here; subfolders recursive processing can be activated in case of need. Pliable mechanism of construction of the output file name enables to preserve the original hierarchy of directories regardless of its complexity.
Grabber
Watermark Master 2.1.2 can grab individual frames of any movie file and save them in a graphic format. It enables to grab the first frame of a video, grab frames regularly (say, every 5 seconds) or grab the first frame of each of equal movie’s parts (number of parts can be set here). Besides, Watermark Master can process more than one profile at once, which enables to produce both movie files and thumbnails per one password.
User Interface
Watermark Master possesses handy and clear interface, system of hints that makes getting used to the program easier, and Wizard that provides quick and easy access to nearly all accessible operations.
Field of Use
