We all know that VLC is a very popular media player which comes with extensive impressive features. Earlier, I presented some of those fantastic features, like recording the desktop screen, import YouTube playlist, etc. In this tutorial, I will explain how to add image and text watermark to video using VLC. And like many other features, this is also made possible with a built-in feature of VLC.

While adding watermark using VLC, you can also preview the added watermarks and can set their position on currently playing video. To keep the inserted text and image watermark to your video, you need to record that particular video. You can either use some third-party screen recorder software or the best way to do so is use another built-in feature of VLC.
