how to add text?

[JediYamuna]

Hi!

I want to add some text to my .avi file. The text(in red) should appear on the left corner for just a few seconds at the beginning and at the end of the file. I'm using GK for my encoding, so before the enconding starts I just have to edit my .avs file right? But I don't know what exactly to write there! :( Could someone please give me an example? Oh and this is how my .avs file looks like:
#
# Created with Gordian Knot

#
# PLUGINS
# get them from http://users.win.be/dividee
LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\GORDIA~1\mpeg2dec.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\GORDIA~1\InverseTelecine.dll")
#LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\GORDIA~1\Avisynth_Spatial.dll")
#LoadPlugin("C:\PROGRA~1\GORDIA~1\GreedyHMA.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\vobsub.dll")

#
# CROPPING

# 3) heavy noise (very slow, you have been warned)

Hi-
Well, I can give a partial answer to the question. If you know how to create a .bmp with the text you want, then you can use the Logo filter for VDub-NanDub to place it in the video during encoding. You'll be able to specify where on the frame it's located, what frame it starts, how many frames it lasts, fade-in, fade-out, transparent or solid background, that sort of thing. You would use the filter twice to put it at the beginning and then again at the end of the .avi.

I don't know for sure, but I don't believe you can do it in an AviSynth script. Perhaps you could find out in the AviSynth Forum.
