Tell us about your request
What do you want us to build?
I would like to have an option to pass a custom watermark (e.g. "César 05/11/2023") to the content share tile (RemoteVideo) to improve the security of our information being shared.
Tell us about the problem you are trying to solve and why is it hard?
I've been reading the docs but I couldn't find a single thing about how could include a built in watermark for each user (such as the attendee's name and date) even though I found this update note which mentions watermarking.
Do you have something close to that already?
I'm currently using the React Component Library and JS SDK.
How are you currently solving a problem?
Our current watermark is just a div with some info and style but it can be easily removed by inspecting the page and deleting the element from the DOM.
Additional context
I think that documentation is referring to background replacement - https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2022/01/amazon-chime-sdk-video-background
However, I'm not 100% sure if a watermark is exactly what you're looking for. It seems like you just want a label on a remote video tile. You might be able to import the VideoTile component from the React Library, and if it's not customizable enough for you, you might just consider copying the source code for the VideoTile component and add a label on it.
Actually, we just like to add a watermark in the content that is being shared for each user that is watching the video content.
