Save the image in jpg, png, tiff, as you like. Open Cinelerra, load your video, put the cursor at the beginning of it, and open the "load files" dialog, choose your images then choose the "paste at insertion point" insertion strategy. Your images will last only 1 frame, so decrease the time line scale until you see them individually, and increase the duration of each as needed (just drag the cursor from the edge of the image to the desired duration). Of course you can add effects, transitions, audio...
Instead of working on your video, you may be better of creating a new project in Cinelerra (same size and frame rate than the final video), putting your images in, then rendering only this. You'll be able later on to insert it in the main video, or concatenate it while adding some overlap, transition effects... If what you need is just a "title like" piece of text, just load your video and choose the "title" effect, write your text, choose the rendering (color, fading, font, drop down shadow...) and the duration. Repeat if needed with another piece of text. If you don't want the text to appear on top of the video, just add some blank frames at the beginning and apply the title effect to this part. You can achieve the same by loading previously created still images with text in Kdenlive, it will do the exact same job, the ergonomic is a bit different from Cinelerra, maybe easier at first, and it can export to many format or even directly to dvd. FWIW, i'm using it almost daily, and it just works, with some bumps because Cinelerra and Kdenlive are known to get pretty buggy from time to time, but they seem to be in good shape right now... The harder is to get a grip on the programs gui. Hope it can help, Tom -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
