Being now the happy owner of a digital video recorder, I am experimenting and 
learning how to get the video in the computer and burn discs.  I have burned 
my first disc that plays in my DVD player!

That first disk was very plain: Dump the video in via Kino, export it as MPEG, 
burn to VCD via K3B.  Worked fine.  Now I am learning more of Kino's 
features, including the "FX" tab where you can do fades and so on.

I want to create a graphic in GIMP to use as a scene title.  The Kino FX 
allows you to specify a file to use to render a transition effect.  I am 
follow a time from this web site, http://www.a2rt.org/vid/doc.html (look 
under the "FX" heading), that states this file must be "720x576 px and saved 
as a TIFF."  However, when I pull it into Kino, the graphic file in question 
is badly "scrambled" almost beyond recognition.

When you save a single frame out of the video stream, Kino saves it as 640x480 
so I resized my graphic to match this.  It did not help, just changed the 
scramble a bit.  :^(

Does anyone have experience using Kino to do this?  What am I doing wrong?
