The present invention relates to a method for adding a graphical object to image data of one or more image frames comprising a first image frame, the graphical object being added during encoding of the one or more image frames using an encoder, wherein the image data generator is converting the graphical object into a first set of discrete frequency transform, DFT, blocks each DFT block being associated with a position in the one or more image frames to which the DFT block corresponds. The encoder is performing DFT on a plurality of block of pixels of the first image frame, to output a second set of DFT blocks and then replacing a subset of DFT blocks of the second set of DFT blocks with the first set of DFT blocks according to the positions associated with the first set of DFT blocks.
