I have some tapes of old home video clips that I have recoded via WinDV and edited with VIrtualDub. However, to make it easier for people to figure out what they are watching, I want to add a simple into text page to certain clips that would just have s description of the video.

E.g. "Summer Vacation 1992"

I just want that to go on the screen for 4-5 seconds as just text with a background and then go into the clip.

What is the easiest way to do this? I can splice it into the AVI file or the already encoded m2v file or whatever makes the most sense.

If there's a guide on this and you can point me to a link, I didn't find anything via searching but wasn't sure what to search for.

Thanks.
