Cinelerra - Advanced titling

Although Cinelerra has a titling effect, it is a little limited.

One useful trick is to render a still image of the required title in Gimp or the like, and then add this as a track. You'll need to zoom right in on it and then grab the right hand edge to expand it to last the appropriate amount of time.

The still image does not have to be the same size as the video, it can even be much wider or taller and be scrolled to rolling titles.
