 Hi, I am new here, I am a director and trying to put more than fifty subtitles to a show, they should enter during a moving video background, with a fade in and a fade out. Is there any hint? I tried specific tutorial on this but I could not find one. I tried delay trigger but it did not work, maybe I did something wrong Hope someone has the solution (I think it may simple, maybe) Thanks a lot Marcello

 Have you looked at the SRT Subtitle Player Actor yet? 
 Once you have this working it won't be too difficult to add fades to the text.

 @jfg thanks for your kind reply, it is not a srt files, but png image with titles of theatre scenes, so font are arty and not plain text, I wanted to know if there a way, hitting the spacebar to go to different steps in the same scene: 1. scene with moving background, 2 same background with the ong title 3 same background, fade out of the title I need this to do without changing scene as the background movie is a pattern moving continuously, I only need to let the tile appear for 5 seconds and then disappear. I could do this with QLAb, but have no mac available... Hope this makes sense thanks! Marcello

 here a solution with pictures:  The best way to avoid problem by starting is to set the "counter actor" from 0 to [number of yours pictures+1]. So by activating the scene you have no picture (0, your first picture is 1) and at the end you get also an empty screen (number of pictures+1) best, Jean-François

 or if you want to control each step with the space bar:  In this case set the min and max of the counter actor from 1 to [number of pictures] best, Jean-François

 @jfg thanks so much for your help! It starts working. I have some questions, is that possible to have counter actor in different scenes? In this case how can I switch to the next scene, always using the spacebar. My project is mainly: 1. Video abstract Background 2. Title i.e. Meng Sogno 3. Translation of chinese term1 4. Translation of chinese term 2 3 trans. 3 4 transl. 4 ecc. 5. Scen 2 Another white video background Bao Tesoro 6. Other translation... And so on... so, I have 20 with seven different background and 30 translation of chinese terms, which are inside the scenes. I hope thos.makes sense, otherwise I could post some image... Anyway, thanks for your kindness and availability. M. 5
