How do I install cinelerra? I did many attempts with different entries in

AFAICT, cinelerra is available from debian-multimedia.org (please try to
use a mirror in your sources.list), but only for Lenny and Sid. If you
are on Etch then you might have to compile it yourself, which will
probably be a pain in the neck because it depends on some libraries that
are themselves not in Debian.
Cinelerra and Kdenlive are both available for Lenny and upward, not
Etch. Outside of the debian-multimedia packages (which I would
recommend) there's a few other possible repositories, this one for
instance has given good results for 64bit systems :

But I would definitely stick with
debian-multimedia, and as Florian Kulzer said building from sources is
really not an easy option with Cinelerra...
Out of curiosity I have tested Openmovieeditor following your question,
which is available in Debian
http://packages.debian.org/lenny/openmovieeditor
saving you the hassle of adding debian-multimedia to your sources. It
has worked very well doing exactly what you want: adding some still
images in the beginning of a 800M video, wrapping up some text on top of
that, and then rendering everything in mpeg video and audio. So it's
worth a try if you can't cope with Cinelerra installation and
not-so-friendly gui...
