watermarking
Version: v2025-01-13 | Includes use: Yes |

Behavior name: Watermarking
Adds watermarking for each valid user's content. Content segments are delivered from different sources using a pattern unique to each user, based on a watermarking token included in each request. If your content is pirated or redistributed, you can forensically analyze the segments to extract the pattern, and identify the user who leaked the content.

Options
Option | Description |
---|---|
enable |
Enables the watermarking behavior.
|
signature_verification_enable |
When enabled, you can verify the signature in your watermarking token.
|
verification_key_id1 |
Specifies a unique identifier for the first public key.
|
verification_public_key1 |
Specifies the first public key in its entirety.
|
verification_key_id2 |
Specifies a unique identifier for the optional second public key.
|
verification_public_key2 |
Specifies the optional second public key in its entirety. Specify a second key to enable rotation.
|
pattern_decryption_enable |
If patterns in your watermarking tokens have been encrypted, enabling this allows you to provide values to decrypt them.
|
decryption_password_id1 |
Specifies a label that corresponds to the primary password.
|
decryption_password1 |
Provides the primary password used to encrypt patterns in your watermarking tokens.
|
decryption_password_id2 |
Specifies a label for the secondary password, used in rotation scenarios to identify which password to use for decryption.
|
decryption_password2 |
Provides the secondary password you can use to rotate passwords.
|
use_original_as_a |
When you work with your watermarking vendor, you can apply several preprocessing methods to your content. See the AMD help for more information. With the standard filename-prefix AB naming preprocessing method, the watermarking vendor creates two variants of the original segment content and labels them as an
A and B segment in the filename. If you selected the unlabeled A variant preprocessing method, enabling this option tells your configuration to use the original filename segment content as your A variant.
|
ab_variant_location |
Applies preprocessing methods to your content. Use this option to specify the location of the
A and B variant segments. Value is one of:
