%X In this chapter, a new technique for the watermarking of MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 compressed video streams is proposed. The watermarking scheme operates directly in the domain of MPEG-1 system streams and MPEG-2 program streams (multiplexed streams). Perceptual models are used during the embedding process in order to preserve video quality. The watermark is embedded in the compressed domain and is detected without the use of the original video sequence. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that the proposed scheme is able to withstand a variety of attacks. The resulting watermarking system is very fast and reliable, and is suitable for the copyright protection of video content.
