Commandline video/image crossfading

Question

I have a test.avi using ffmpeg or mencoder or some other commandline utility, I want to take splash.png put it at the beginning of the video, fade it out, show test.avi, then at the end of test.avi, fade splash.png back in.

How would I go about doing this?

Answer 1

I would try to convert the image to a video -f image2 and after I would use the fade-in/out effect
