Hello,
        (Sorry, haven't checked email for a week!)

        320x180x16, 1 audio track and 15 fps (there's a transition stuck somewhere)
        I've found i can edit the project file directly, and set that the picture 
lasts for 60 frames, or whatever i like.

        But the PNG picture still gets downgraded to JPEG quality, and then when i 
encode the movie it will be even worse - most of the slides are full of text.
        I'll try mencoder when i find my mandrake CDs...hopefully tomorrow.

        Thanks,
                _nasturtium
