5 months agoThe problem with (good) hashes is that when you change the input even slightly (maybe a different compression algorithm is used), the hash changes drastically
I think that downsizing the scene to like 8x8 pixels (so basically taking the average color of multiple sections of the scene) would mostly work. In order to be undetected, the ad would have to match (at least be close to) the average color of each section, which would be difficult in my opinion: you would need to alter each ad for each video timestamp individually.
