VS x3 - adding watermark (text or image) to .avi file

[mgrogan]

I have a 30 second .avi file, frame size 1440 x 1080 15 frames/sec
Video compression Microsoft DTV-DVD Video Decoder, 24 bits, total 450 frames
Audio compression PCM 32.000 kHz, 16 bit Mono 960,000 samples.
I can play the video OK in vlc and when I insert the video into the timeline of VS X3 and play the inserted .avi.

As soon as I insert:
1. a .jpg at the start of the timeline with text and/or,
2. text (as a watermark) on bottom left hand side for the 30 second duration

whenever I play back (in VS X3 preview) this clip, the movie plays (but with a frozen first frame from the .avi) with only the audio with the text.

I have been using VS X2 successfully on my Windows 7 64-bit PC.
I had purchased X3 sometime ago and decided to install my X3 version.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I removed quick time and installed version 7.60.92.0. using this reference
http://corel.force.com/index/articles/e ... X3-crashes

I am able to insert a .jpg, put in a title (watermark) on the clip, but the ouput eg. wmv, jerks every second.

I have put up a 10 second clip here to show a sample of the jerkiness.
