Viewer watermark / Free, more in Pro
The name moves around the frame, so a screen recording points back to the account that made it.
While a protected video plays, MediaShield draws the viewer's display name and IP address over it. The overlay moves between the four corners and the centre on an interval you set, 30 seconds by default, so cropping it out of a recording costs a large part of the picture. If someone removes or hides the overlay in their browser, self-hosted video pauses and platform players are hidden, so playback stops rather than carrying on unmarked.
Set opacity, colour and how often it moves under Settings > Watermark. The watermark appears on videos at the Standard or Strict protection level, which you can set site-wide or per video. Around 0.3 to 0.5 opacity is visible without getting in the way of the lesson.
The watermark is an overlay drawn in the browser. It is not burned into the video file, so anyone who gets the source file has a clean copy, and nothing stops a viewer recording their screen. What it does is make that recording traceable to an account. On players narrower than 640 pixels, phones mostly, the IP is dropped from the overlay so the name stays readable; it is still recorded against the session.
Free shows name and IP. Pro lets you choose from seven fields (username, email, IP, user ID, timestamp, site name and your own text) and adds font size and badge control. Every row, side by side.
No licence key, no site limit, nothing that expires.

I worked with Varus and he was very friendly and cordial. He is an honest person and does what you ask of him. I recommend you 100%. I currently use the plugins that your company has used and so far they are working very well for me.
Camila Scot of Wbcom was helpful. I got a super prompt help with my BuddyX Theme. Although I am a free version user, I got irst attention. I am satisfied. I will eventually buy the lifetime version once we fully deploy it and we are sure it meets our need.
