That plays 100 frames of black, then fades from noise into my clip over the next 100 frames. I'm trying to to fade from black/silence into my clip and then fade back to black/silence. > colour:black out=100 \ > -mix 100 -mixer luma -mixer mix:-1 > > What's your end goal? I've got a bunch of clips that I want to concatenate with fade-in from black/silence and fade-out to black/silence at the beginning/end of each clip. > I suggest using https://www.shotcut.org to do what you need. It doesn't support the flavor of Linux that I run. I could probably get it to work eventually, but I don't really feel like fighting with another GUI video editor (I've already wasted days on Openshot and Cinelerra). > If it is only one, then hit encode and you are done.
