A video surveillance system gets a first image from at least a video source, and extracts its image features. It embeds annotation information with at least the image features into the first image, and converts the embedded image into a second image without changing the image format. After having compressed and decompressed the second image, the system extracts the embedded information from the decompressed embedded stream to separate the image and the annotation information, thereby obtaining completely recovered annotation information after a recovery process and an image processing. Because the image format is not changed, the operations on the second image at the rear end of the system, such as compression and decompression, are not affected.
