A method and apparatus for superimposing digital watermark information to a video signal are provided. The method comprises the steps of determining before conversion a format of a video signal that is to have digital watermark information superimposed thereon and determining a format of the video signal after conversion from said video signal before conversion. A unit block size of the video signal before conversion is then determined that includes a whole number of pixels in both the horizontal and vertical directions so that when said video signal before conversion is converted to the format of the video signal after conversion, a resulting unit block size of said video signal after conversion also includes a different whole number of pixels in both the horizontal and vertical directions. The conversion is accompanied selectively by an interpolating process or a thinning process in the horizontal direction or the vertical direction or a time direction between consecutive frames or fields.
