Overlay image on top of the video





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

I am looking to play a video with an overlay image. Though with the help of ffmpeg I was able to make a new video with the overlay image.



Reference here.



But is there any other way without converting the video before playing it, and playing the video separately and overlaying the image on top of it.

  • This is not an Ubuntu question. You should find a video-editing forum. That said, I do not know of any video player that combines video streams in realtime. You can always overlay subtitles but those are strictly limited to text.

You can use mpv. This example will overlay video.mp4 as the background and image.png as the foreground. image.png will be placed in the lower right with a 10px padding.



mpv --lavfi-complex="[vid1][vid2]overlay=W-w-10:H-h-10[vo]" video.mp4 --external-file=image.png


See the overlay filter and mpv documentation for more info.
