How to add text to video?

What difference between common video and text in video?

Common Video
As we known, common video includes movie, inter video, YouTube video, Facebook video, cell phone video, iPod video, etc. The format can be AVI, NPEG, MP4, WMV, MOV, MKV, FLV, etc, no anything on the display screen when you play common video.

Text in Video
Text in video is a different video with common video, they are have the same format and encoder, but text in video means put some text / words into video, when you watch the video, you can see the words in all process or segment. Those words will tell you who is the author of the video, or some copyright information like ‘No copy’, ‘Just for test’, etc. Here are some samples of text in video.
