Well so far so good, I've created a trial account and added a video clip, which xvid's then ran thru their software and sent back for me to do whatever I wanted too to try and get rid of the fingerprint.
I ran it thru ffmpeg and cropped then resized the video, which is what I often find happens to my videos with the pirates, the crop out my logo and then resize back to 720p. Then I uploaded it back to xvids and it was able to email me the message that I had encoded in the orginal video.
I've got a couple more things I'm going to do, to try and obfuscate the info in the video, but I'm assuming that it will always be able to read the embedded code unless I just really chop out like 1/2 of the video and make it unviewable.
The next big issue that I'm waiting to hear back on, are the costs associated with the service.
I'll let you know what I find.
