Also, the thief can easily re-encode the clip and erase any metadata you put in it so it kinda depends on them not knowing what's going on. Still it's been very effective for me as they usually don't bother with reencoding the clips.

On a simple level you could do it with mod_rewrite on the filename, plenty might spot it, but some of the more dumb wouldnt. With photosets its fairly trivial to inject details into the jpeg, their ip address and username in the description field should do and you can do this on the fly by picking just say the first photo in a set. However I have a feeling that plenty more use stolen, shared or leaked username and passwords. If you have a strong password management system in place however and watermarking, is there much you could do to prosecute a determined pirate once you had caught them if they don't live in the same country?
