Methods and apparatus for embedding a watermark are disclosed. Example methods disclosed herein to embed a watermark in a compressed data stream include obtaining a set of transform coefficients from the compressed data stream, the set of transform coefficients comprising a first set of mantissa codes and a first set of exponents. Disclosed example methods also include determining a second set of mantissa codes based on a sinusoidal component of the watermark. Disclosed example methods further include adjusting ones of the first set of mantissa codes based on corresponding ones of the second set of mantissa codes and compression information obtained from the compressed data stream to embed the watermark in the compressed data stream without uncompressing the compressed data stream.
