Hi malefico,
Unless you want30 diferents texts to appear at the same time, you only
need ONE title effect to make this job.
Just use the Cinelerra's keyframing feature:
1) add a video in one track,
2) add another video track with Video -> Add track
3) Put in [ and out ] points at the begining and the end of your video.
4) Activate the "Generate keyframes while tweeking" option (the little key)
5) Change the text along the time when you wish.
That's all.
Saying that, as Jason said, subtitler tools may be best way to go for
that job. Cinelerra's docs suggest some of them.
But this could be a feature request to export/import text into cinelerra
with time position, xy position, font, size, color, etc.
