Bug Description

Animated titles always have a "set" number of frames, which sometimes plays too quickly, depending on the text entered, and which settings are used. They need a parameter to adjust the speed or length the animation plays. This might be difficult, since the animations are all built by hand, and very "frame number" driven.

A new parameter has been added to all Blender animations in OpenShot (i.e. animated titles), called "Animation Length". The options are "Default", "2X", "3X", "4X", and "5X". This takes advantage of the "time remapping" functionality in Blender, and increases the # of frames in the animation by this multiplier. The side effect is the animation goes slower, but lasts longer. The best part of this enhancement, is the animation is smoothly interpolated to match the higher # of frames, and it works really smooth, and nicely.

I created an animated title and applied 2X, which worked great when exported to a DVD video profile. But when exporting to HD 720p, the title ran twice at normal speed. Tried a couple different encoding fomats and fps. No change.
