Abstract
A system for generating and detecting watermarks within a video frame (e.g., video content) is described to determine whether a data interruption has occurred. In one or more implementations, the system includes a generation module communicatively coupled to a video source and a watermark detection module configured to receive a plurality of video watermarks. The watermarking detection module is configured to determine whether a watermark embedded in a current (e.g., a second) video frame is different from a watermark embedded in the previous (e.g., a first) video frame. The watermarking detection module is configured to generate an error signal when the watermark embedded in the current (e.g., a second) video frame is not different than the watermark embedded in the previous (e.g., a first) video frame to indicate a data interruption event has occurred.
