The problem appears to be that "colour:black" doesn't have an audio track, so "-mixer mix:-1" does nothing. IMO, a more intuitive result would be to treat "no audio track" as silence and fade to/from silence. I ended up creating an acutal mp4 video clip containing black frames plus a silent audio track and using that instead of colour:black. That works as expected, but it seems like a bit of a kludge. There's probably a smarter way to do it, but I haven't been able to figure out what it is. :/ -- Grant ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What NetFlow Analyzer can do for you?
