In today’s era use of digital media is most popular way of communication. Digital media covers images, videos and animations available online. The easy methods of accessing, copying and editing digital media have made them more popular. With several advantages these easy methods of copying and editing data have created some big issues like ownership identification. This increases the demand of protecting online digital media. Watermarking is solution of such problem. In this work, a block-based method has been proposed for video watermarking that uses a key at the time of embedding and extraction. Some frames are selected from the video according to a key. Watermark is embedded on the selected frames after dividing into parts called blocks. Each part of the watermark is embedded in one selected frame of the video. This method increases the security of the system as the complete watermark cannot be extracted without knowing the positions of watermarked frames and the position of the block in that frame. Watermarking is performed in the Discrete Wavelet Transform domain after scaling of watermark data. To show the authenticity of proposed scheme various attacks are applied on different watermarked video frames and extracted watermark results are shown under different tables.

We present a robust video watermarking scheme and report the detailed robustness of the video watermarking assessed based on standard criteria obtained from Information Hiding and its Criteria (IHC) Committee. Using discrete cosine transform domain spread-spectrum watermarking, our system achieves robustness under various non-hostile video processing techniques, including MPEG compression and digital/analog–analog/digital (DA-AD) conversion. The proposed system ensures that a 16-bit embedded sequence can be extracted through adaptive frame selection in any 15-s interval, even with a long video clip. To evaluate the performance of the proposed watermarking scheme, we conducted robustness tests under a DA-AD conversion environment, based on the MPEG-4 part 10 (H.264) codec. The experiment results obtained indicate that, in addition to being robust against non-hostile video processes, the proposed method achieves invisibility. The assessment of the developed watermarking scheme also satisfies the third edition of the IHC video watermarking evaluation criteria.
