I am not very happy with code quality, but it does the job and covers my needs. Feel free to reject pull request without any explanation. (-;

Looks alright to me, but I'm not exactly qualified to say so. :) Thanks for the contribution!

I'll let James have a look, but hopefully we'll merge this (possibly with changes).

This seems like a reasonable feature. We used to prepend a short video intro to PLUG videos with our old production work flow, but I never got round to doing something similar for bbb-render. I'll try to make some time to look through PR #4 soon.

One nice thing about GES is that it probably doesn't matter whether the title cards are videos or static images.

I've merged PR #4 the change with a few modifications:

1. the command line arguments are now --opening-credits and --closing-credits, and you will need to pass the option multiple times to set multiple credits. The nargs='+' mode interfered with parsing of positional arguments.
2. If the credits file is a video rather than still image, it will default to the video's length. Using a video for the credits means you also get sound. I've kept the 3 second default for image credits.
3. You can override the duration by passing FILENAME:DURATION as the option value, setting a duration in seconds.

Thanks for the contribution!

That's great!
In meantime I processed recordings from our conference.

I have prepared a set of bash scripts and svg templates to generate video specific into/outro credits. It might be usable for you as well.

They look great. I'm glad these scripts helped you process your videos.
