Hi there thanks for your help. Would you be able to post me a
link where I can download the logo filter from. Look everywhere and can't find it....

Thanks once again

where I can download the logo filter from

You have misunderstood this.

1. Define the *.png-file you want to use as logo, adjust transparency, Logo position:
Settings - Preferences - Video - Subtitles/OSD - Logo overlay.
Save and exit.

2. Create a new shortcut to VLC, right-click on it, open the "Properties" and add " --filter logo" into the "Target".
Example:
C:\Program Files\VLC\vlc.exe -I skins2 --filter logo


Now while playing a movie your logo should be visible.

You can move the logo by left-clicking on it.

the --filter option was renamed to --vout-filter in 0.8.4

the --filter option was renamed to --vout-filter in 0.8.4

Really ?
I'm using 0.8.4a, the --filter logo-option still works.

----------

Instead creating a new shortcut you can go to:
Settings - Preferences - Video - Overlays - Subtitles/OSD, scroll down and enable "Logo video filter".
