IP Address & Contact Information Watermark

Include the IP address and the viewer's contact info as watermark as a means of piracy and screen recording deterrence and prevention.

The IP Watermark can be enabled within a Theme >> Security >> Show IP Watermark.

Spotlightr provides several customization options for the viewer watermark to make it less intrusive while maintaining its effectiveness. These include adjustments to font size, position, opacity, and animation.

After enabling this option, you'll notice a gear icon appear; click that icon for more options for your watermark: You can customize the watermark by adjusting its font size, position, opacity, and enabling animation. These options allow you to make the watermark less intrusive while ensuring it remains effective.

While the watermark can be customized, it cannot be set to disappear entirely, as its purpose is to remain visible to deter screen recording.

The watermark also includes the current date and, if the viewer is identified and 'Include Contact Info' is enabled, it may also display that contact info (e.g. email address). To reduce intrusiveness, consider using a smaller font size, higher opacity, and positioning the watermark in a less distracting area. Enabling animation can also help by preventing the watermark from being fixed in one spot.
