BrainCert's secure Video Player, now featuring native DRM protection, offers advanced customization options to seamlessly match your brand's style. You can personalize the video player with your own logo and watermark. To further safeguard against unauthorized distribution, we’ve implemented dynamic watermarking that displays user-specific information—such as name, email, and IP address—as a floating overlay on the video.

This guide will walk you through customizing every aspect of your player, from controls and menus to tooltips, for a fully branded and secure viewing experience.

Step 1:

To start customizing your video player, navigate to the 'Global Settings' and open 'Video Player'.

Logo Customization

Step 2:

You can upload a PNG image file with a transparent background.

Note: Ensure the logo height does not exceed 44px for optimal display.

Click the delete icon to remove the logo anytime.

Step 3:

Choose where you want your logo to appear on the player using the dropdown menu.

Step 4:

Logo Opacity: Adjust the opacity of your logo using the slider.

Logo Visibility: Enable or disable the logo’s visibility on the player as needed.

Save or Reset to Default: Remember to 'Save' your changes or 'Reset to default' settings if needed.

Step 5:

Choose 'Yes' or 'No' to display user data as a watermark on your videos.

Step 6:

If set to 'Yes', select the information to include: 'Name', 'Email', and 'IP Address'. Choose 'Watermark position' using the dropdown menu.

You cannot select the same position if the logo is already placed there.

Step 7:

Enable 'Randomize Position' to change the watermark's position randomly across different video sessions and 'Save' the changes.

Customizing Controls

Step 8:

Choose colors from the spectrum to match your brand.

Control Bar Background Color: Set the color of the control bar background to align with your brand.

Control Bar Icons Default Color: Choose a default color for the control bar icons.

Control Bar Icons Hover Color: Set a hover color for the control bar icons to provide visual feedback when users interact with them.

Timeline Progress Color: Adjust the color that indicates how much of the video has been watched.

Timeline Rail Color: Customize the color of the timeline rail to align with your branding.

Note: You can enter the color code to set the desired color.

Menu Customization

Step 9:

Links Default Color: Set a default color for hyperlinks within the player.

Links Hover Color: Choose a hover color for links to enhance user interaction.

Background Color: Customize the background color of menus to ensure readability and style consistency.

Tooltips Customization

Step 10:

Text Color: Define the color of the text displayed in tooltips for better visibility.

Background Color: Choose a background color for tooltips to improve readability.

Once you customize your Video Player settings, the changes will be reflected in your course and test videos. With these personalization options, you can create a more engaging and branded experience for your users. Make sure to regularly review your settings to maintain consistency with your evolving brand identity.
