Solutions to identify users in video file on online courses?

Hello to the whole community !

I'm trying to find a solution to "secure" online video courses on a new online platform. The goals are the following :

  • Prevent easy download of video - OK
  • Be able to identify which connected user downloaded the video if it happens - NOK

The server will be a Debian machine running PHP 7 and the "encryption" of the video will be done "on the stream" for each user.


My question is for the second point. I'm unable to find a good solution for it. Here is what i thought of so far and the downsides :

  1. Add a watermark with the user's name/email with "ffmpeg" on the whole video (in a corner)
    • Can be blurred and therefore useless
  2. Add an invisible digital watermark (inside the video file) with a tool (which i have not found yet)
    • Screen can be recorded and the invisible digital watermark lost.
  3. Add a watermark with the user's name/email on 2 or 3 specific frames of the video while streaming using "ffmpeg"
    • Best solution from my point of view but no technical solution found so far.

Do you have any recommendations on how to do this or a completely different approach to the problem ?

I'm open to any third party video tool such as Vimeo or any other available.

Thank you in advance for your help ! :)
