Instead of targeting on a single degree of robustness, which results in overestimation and/or underestimation of the noise conditions, we apply multi-level embedding to digital video to achieve more than one level of robustness-capacity tradeoff. In addition, an adaptive technique is proposed to determine how many bits are embedded in each part of the video. Besides user data, control information such as synchronization and the number of hidden user bits are embedded as well. The algorithm can be used for applications such as access control}, keywords = {access, adaptive, algorithms;hidden, bits;high, conditions;robustness;robustness-capacity, control;adaptive, data, data;video, design;user, digital, embedding;noise, encapsulation;multimedia, hiding, hiding;multi-level, information;data, processing;, QUALITY, signal, systems;authorisation;data, systems;video, technique;control, tradeoff;system, user, video;multi-level}, doi = {10.1109/ICME.2000.869620}, author = {M.
